I think it did make it, I'm replacing an O2 sensor, probably today, but I'm
putting in a generic, so I will be reusing much of the original harness.
I'll check the Passat for one, and I found another one yesterday too, in
the driver's door, wired to the latch mechanism of the B3 Passat we have,
it didn't have central locking either, and I don't think there's one on the
Passenger's door, oddly enough.

And here's some trivia, I mentioned it to my kid, and he said,"you know why
that is?" (that the males are always on a sensor, not the plug? I figured
he'd have some sexist tidit about why males were more important in general,
but...) Because if the pins got bent on the powered end there'd be more
risk of a short. Interesting trivia eh?

But in that whole Passat harness, only one so far. And I'll probably keep
it to make up another test rig.
