Mystery wires in the boot any ideas?

[Lord Candleford]

Hi guys,

I am rebuilding an 88 4.5 and have come across two wires in the boot which are not connected to anything. They come out of the original wiring loom with the wires going to the sender unit on the top right of the tank. One is black with a red trace, the second is blue. Both have Lucas connectors fitted. Any ideas what they may be for?

this is wiring that was used on earlier type ETB fuel gauge and sender unit, black/red wire is the low fuel warning light connection.

Good day Ozstyle,

Best wishes
