#1: what is this wire for? *pictures* Author: bisphenol-a, Location: AntarcticaPosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 3:25 am ---- found this telephone wire pin type but smaller
wasnt plugged into anything but it was hanging loose hidden behind those covers under the steering. followed the wire and it went along the drivers' side door under the carpet, hidden together with the other wires that run towards the back of the car. didnt feel like ripping out the carpets just to see where it ends . removed a door's length of carpet before giving up.

Looks exactly like the wire and connector used by the remote gain control on my DLS amp.

Perspective might be fooling me, but the plug looks more square (ie like a 4-pin RJ-11) than the more rectangular 8-pin RJ-45 normally used for ethernet.
Not that you couldn't try running ethernet over 4 wires, and the RJ-11 plug will work in an RJ-45 socket (central 4 pins), while the pairs in that kind of flat wire is, IME, not as twisted as ethernet normally wants, you could probably get away with 10 Mbps over a short run even in a fairly noisy environment.
Could of course have been used for just about anything, but my money would still be on remote gain control - are there any [other] remains from a previous sound systems install?
