Unknown Wires

[CameronTom]

Had a look in my enigine bay today and noticed these 2 wires both disconnected.
1 was connected to the battery and other went in the white pipe.

Unsure if they are ment to connect or what they do.
wondering if anyone could help me

Thanks,
Cam

I don't think those wires are standard. One the conduit used is 240v. The inline fuse wire could be the power wire for driving lights.

I wouldn't chop them off before confirming they are not a new headlight switch wire. Mine has something similar under the dash which is headlight switch wires because the original one was burnt out.

Yeah, they aren't standard.
They will be for something extra

Looks like possibly a power connection for an amplifier. The white cylinder looks like a fuse.

The white thing is a broken 3AG fuse holder. A good one looks like - https://www.jaycar.com.au/3ag-in-line-fuse-holder/p/SZ2015

I suggest replacing it (or use an in-line blade fuse holder instead (https://www.jaycar.com.au/30a-blade-fuse-holder-with-failure-lamp-water-resistant-standard/p/SZ2042) so that you can work out what it is powering.

Reckon it would be a pretty small amp to run on that cable and fuse. My other thought was a stereo cable. Could be that someone had an amp but took it out as well as the cable, as the cable is expensive but left the cheap thin cable.
