Top tailgate handle plug
Has anyone gone a decent picture of grey plug that goes into the top tailgate handle.
As I’m in the process of swapping looms, S to HSE, and I mistakenly stripped it.
I have the plug and the wires just need to know where they go.
Four wires Red, black, thin black and another with a white line down it(I think it’s black....)
And the plug has the numbers 1,2,3,4 on
Any decent pictures would do please.

Glad it helped , on the wiring diagram if u look at the last single number that’s the PIN number
So it says co383 -1 the first numbers are the connector id number and last number is the PIN number
I think I’ve seen a better pic, will try and find it for u

Cheers.
Sorry that don’t make sense. Im not that good on wiring diagrams
As it states C0383-1 goes into PIN 1 then so does C0616-1 but the PIN plug has numbers 1-4 on.
I’m confused lol
Let’s hope I don’t pull anymore plugs while I’m swapping the loom

Hiya
No worries , so do u mean the grey connector up the wiring loom, as in not the connector that connects to the actual switch but a short distance away
So it’s the actual grey loom connector ur talking about that has 4 x wires going into it , sorry if I’ve made things complicated , lol

The loom yes.
Connects at the top of the car by two plugs, a grey and a black, through the roof into the tailgate then round to the heated window connector then the tailgate handle then the wiper motor then to the second heated window connector.
Not the handle switch to let you in I’ve already done that one the other week
No worries I should’ve been more specific
