The yellow black wire from the 4th plug runs across the dash to the engine loom plug under the glove box. If this plug is unplugged the car will not start. If you take the side vent off the passengers side of the dash you should be able to see the engine loom plug. The yellow black will go into the emplty slot (you will need to have a lug on the end of the wire that fits the plug).

If you have fitted a L3 loom to your car the A/C wont plug in and the head lights will not work. To get your car to work as it should without creating more issues - take the L3 loom out and cut the wires for the 4th plug and switch block where they connect to the loom. Then using the wire diagram from the "tripin" thread joint in the wires to your L2 loom.

I've made well over 60 VR/VS patch looms and grafting in the L3 wires into your loom is by far the best way. All other methods lead to more issues to resolve.
