Identify these wires

I have two photos at the following URLs:

    In photo 1, from under the left kicker panel, there are four wires going into a light gray connector. Two of the wires are green and blue. These go into an aftermarket alarm system which was in the car when I bought it. They appear to have been spliced into an orange wire (silver spots) and a black/white wire (silver spots). Since this plug was disconnected, the alarm system no longer works. Problem is, I cannot find where to plug it in. There seems to be no empty connections in the area under the kicker panel. Any suggestions? Also, I suspect the orange and black/white wires are related to the A/C system. Is that correct.

In photo 2, I noticed a disconnected, 3-pin plug one day under the hood. Today, I found what I believe to be the match for it - in the under-hood fuse box. I plugged it in (see yellow circle), but didn't immediately see what might have been affected by this. Any ideas on this one? The fuse box cover does not reference this connector.

Thanks very much in advance, NHAnimator

That connector may not plug in anywhere. It may have been loose from the factory for a Honda add-on and the installer "saddle spliced" them rather than get the proper connector to plug into them. Without the alrm make and model, we can't identify what the purpose of those wires are.

Same as above. I'm not sure what that spot on your fuse block is, but knowing the make and model of the alarm, someone who knows that brand may be able to identify what those wires from the alarm are for.

Without knowing what vehicle you're talking about, or what year, it's hard to guess. Read the alarm install instructions for the 2000 CR-V (USA version)

how many times they refer to 'spare' connectors that come attachedto the harness with 'BLUE TAPE'. There's all kinds of options availablein different markets that use those connectors . . possibly options thatnever came to be except on Acura. Don't go plugging things into connectors that 'look' the same. :-(
