Ok, I just found some plugs in my car that seem to be missing a place to plug in to. See if you can identify what's not working on my car due to these plugs not being plugged in. They are labaled appropriately for easy reference.

Looks like there's another plug unplugged near your negative battery terminal. Might be a custon/hack job. I just rand out and looked, I don't have those on my car.

no, no, that is to the windshield wiper motor. I found out that the plug had been completely snipped, so i put the wires back together quite messily only to find that the wipers run all the time, so i left it unplugged for now.

oh yeah, these plugs were hidden and i pulled them out so i can diagnose what they should go to better which is why you may not have seen them. They could have been wrapped in the wire harness wrapping.
 
Those are supposed to be unplugged on a 2g. The brown one is the only one I have ever used. You pull off the cap and ground the terminal, then timing can be adjusted if you have a 6 bolt or a head with an adjustable CAS.

EDIT: I flipped through the manual and the blue connector is used for checking the timing, the brown is for adjusting the timing, but I found nothing on the black connector. I know its used for some kind of diagnostics, Ill check the manual in more detail if I get time.
