WHat are the wire colors on the ford connector? I cant clearly make them out in the pic. WHat color tracers are on those wires.

WIth the wire colors in hand, a long study of the EVTM might be able to determine what that was connected to.

Obviously the butt connectors and relay aren't OEM

Hmm... red with blue is the starter circuit? If memory serves....
Maybe was used as a kill switch?

That relay makes me think Fog light fix. Weird to do on an LX though...

The car was an AOD and now a T5. Looks like it used to be the jumper wires for the nss. But I don’t know why the jumper was cut in two and a relay ran to it. Would this be a way to bypass the nss instead of using a 10 amp fuse?

Kill switch?

That jumper was originally the starter circuit jumper for the t-5. It connects to the cluth cable and allows the car to only start with the clutch in. On the AOD cars it's not connected and uses that jumper to allow the car to start if the trans is in P or nuetral.

I think someone turned it into a sort of kill switch. Stick a 5A blade fuse into the connector under the car if you want to eliminate it.
