Wiring Issues (caused by me)

My car has some wiring issues... not because there is something wrong with the wiring but because there is something wrong with me
[1982 280ZXT]

So I took out my interior wiring harness awhile back and recently got it back in. Went about 99% great for not documenting a single thing Except there are a few spare plugs unaccounted for... As far as I can tell, the only thing not working is the power windows.

Can somebody help me identify these plugs?




In the above picture, I haven't been able to identify these connectors:

The yellow,yellow,green 3-pin along with the 1-pin black connector

The green,yellow,white,red,black 6-pin connector

And the green,green,green,black 4-pin connnector

The other plugs not mentioned have been identified already





And in this picture this cable comes through the firewall along with the connectors to the windshield wipper, haven't been able to find the other end for it.

Thanks for the help!

#1... First: what electrical items are not working???????

#2... The tri-connector (yellow yellow green) doesn't go to anything.

#3... Not enough info / sight to see where green yellow white red black connector goes. Maybe to the vent controls?

#4... Green green green I think goes to the antenna relay.

Second pic... probably goes to the washer fluid tank, or brake fluid sensor... but it looks like the brake fluid sensor is connected? Again... better pics would help.

Nismo... You scare me

Currently the center console with the stereo has been removed from the car along with the heater/AC/blower removed. The big connector in the foreground goes to the fan blower.

As for what is not working after I messed with the wiring is just the power windows... (the stereo and heater/ac are removed) I used the micro fiche (sp?) to check continuity to the window controls and they are fine. There appear to be three connectors that come out of the doors and they have been successfully matched up...

I had a feeling that the tri-connector is a NC but wasn't completely sure.


For the connector in the engine bay, the cable is not the brake fluid sensor nor do I find a connection on the windshield wiper fluid container for the connector


As for the pics, I am not sure what you need a picture of because I am not sure what I have. As far as I can tell the wires for the unidentified plugs go into the big mess of wires on the passenger side and are not easily followed. But I will take a picture of anything requested!

Thanks

Went to a pick and pull to do some research on the missing connections...

This is a NC

This connects to the aux fan controller...

Another NC


Still haven't figured out the one in the engine compartment. The only car at the pull it yard had everything in the engine compartment taken out.



As for the power windows, none of them had anything to do with it. Did some further troubleshooting and discovered that I don't have continuity through the power window circuit breaker. Looked at it further and one of the connectors came apart. Looks like I need to replace it. Anybody know if I could just wire up a fuse in the meantime to get it to work? And if so, what current?

I believe the connector under the hood is for the windshield fluid reservoir, but mine was removed about 5 years ago so I can't be 100% sure.

Found the plug and fixed it! Thanks! It was hard to see, you had to twist it around and look on the backside of the pump


Just got to find myself a power window circuit breaker...
