Default Wire ends near oil dipstick and radiator go to ??

Here are some mysterious wire ends.

First near the radiator, by the battery corner there (ignore the belt, I wasn't finished with the power steering pump installation). Then two terminals near the oil dipstick (two wires, green, black; the other two wires, yellow/blue, red).

Near radiator:


Near oil dipstick:


Near oil dip stick as well:

Does your A/C work?

1st pic a/c compressor
2nd and 3rd pic I have no idea,pic quality and angle are bad.

This is assuming the harness hasn't been cut or wires spliced in.
Green wires are usually associated with the a/c system,a/c compressor and the low pressure switch on the receiver dryer.
Blue/yellow wires,I believe the starter and crank position sensor wires are this color.
Red wire,going by the location on the firewall,this should be your batt indicator light.The wire attaches to the back of the alternator on the D+ term.

I looked at the pic again,and the red wire looks like it runs to the pass side?

I don't have a wiring diagram in front of me,this is from memory,so if any wire colors are wrong someone with a diagram can chime in.

Buy a Bentley service manual.

Blue goose -- it's winter here. I have no idea if A/C works.

Turbo, I'll take another look. My phone camera does not zoom well, but I can edit the photo to enhance the details. I do have a Bentley manual, but those wire diagrams are a challenge to me. Really, electricity is not my forte.
