Technical microswitch on engine hood lock

[valeriovanni]

I found a dangling connector just above radiator
It has no relation with cooling system.

The cable comes from engine hood lock, passes near M150 and then dangles down into void.
After a careful look, I saw that there it goes to a microswitch inside hood lock. And it seems to sense if hood is closed or not.
The microswtich works.

The colors are black and blue, this photo is overexposed.


Where should it be connected? I don't find any compatible connector within cable raeach.
What component is interested in knowing if engine hood is closed or not? Perhaps some anti-theft system?

Immobiliser or bonner unlatched warning light. I think my 198Brave had this.

Ah... so there is a warning light on the dashboard?

As I said, I found no free connector within reach of that one.
It's not that I find a compatible connector, I don't find any at all in the area.

When I start the car, I see "alarm failure", will it be for this reason?

Cable was dangling on the right side, so I searched there.
But here it seems that it goes to left side, I will try to search there:

E7015 ALARM - COMPONENT LOCATION - Fiat - STILO - eLearn - 4CarData

(switch I10)

I hope that somenone look where it goes on their car...
