Corroded connector in cabin causing warning lights to come on. FIX: relocate it

[Eggman]

If you need your trips or service mileage for anything you might want to document numbers before unplugging.

Good find! Thanks for posting.

I got another one. 2017 cvt. Not positive the connector is the problem but that's where I'm gonna look first. Common sense says I should look at the brake lines but I don't listen to that nonsense.
I was told this car won't shift from park, they figured out how to bypass the shifter lock to get it over here. So bring the car in and the shift lock doesn't work, all the abs and traction control lights are on the dash, and the brake lights don't work. Had I not known about that connector I'd be checking fuses and bulbs first. A few months ago I did swap the tail lights on this car from the led to old style bulbs from a 15' but unless the bulbs are burnt or wires are pinched that shouldn't affect anything.

Should start a pole guessing the fix:
1: Loose brake lines
2:Corroded Connector
3:Etacs module
4:Just put tape over the warning lights and drive it
5:Something completely different

42, always choose 42

So I cleaned up the plug a bit coated everyting in grease and kicked it out the door. Car was good for 2 hrs no problems, then they hit some potholes, now the airbag light is on. I'll just bypass the connector like the rest of them...

I will bet a beer that this wire runs along the window at some point or near the AC and the water that is accumulating is from condensated sweat that then drips down the wire... I am getting the same thing and it just recently rained... AND I just recently was in my car with the AC off and fogged up the windows...

How does one "bypass" this wire?
