Hi, I've a 3200 gt from 1999, I bought the car for several month, nearly everithing works well. Im writing from Hungary and there are not many specialists here. I had to change a fuse in the box, and realized that there are two cables without a connection, at least the black looks like it broke away. it comes down from the right side of the picture).Does anyone now what could it be?

They both appear to have shrink wrap over the end which indicated that they are supposed to disconnected and the shrink wrap has been applied so they dont earth out.

Pretty standard on the 3200 to have unconnected wires wrapped at the tip from factory.
I think that's the case with that wire

Mine was the same, loose black wire tucked in the loom, at the rear of the engine. I think, strange though it seems, it's meant to be like that.

Yes, mine had it too but everything worked so I tucked it back in and forgot about it - don't go looking for trouble would be my advise! I hope you're enjoying your car

thanks for the answers, everything works fine, I only have an error message from passanger side airbag light. I thought it could be because the wire. But I guess it would be somewhere else. 2015093-air-03.jpg

Passenger side air bag, could be the disable switch in the side of the dash, these are quite touchy and are affected by dirty and old age, try replacement or just clean it?
