“Mystery” wiring connection

Thanks Mark! Now I can use those wires for a 12v outlet…

That connector isn't used.

It was supposed to be for a dash OBD light that California was forcing cars to be equipped with.
This emissions system related display requirement got delayed a few years and Vanagons never implemented it.
The Bentley 88 wiring diagrams show it and the 88 Owner's Manual does also.

‘88 Westy
Does anyone know what this connector is for? It’s hanging below the heater controls and looks factory, has BK, BN and GY/WH wires. BK is hot with key on, BN is ground and GY/WH is ?? I’ve looked thru all wiring diagrams in the Bentley and can’t find any GY/WH wire called out.
