Identify Cable behind front right wheel cover

Hello

Someone collide in front right of my 2012 yaris when I was parked.
The front bumber cracked a little, but the front plastic cover(arc cover) of the wheel and the plastic cover underneath the bumber cracked ,where the screws are, so I had to replace them.

My mechanic removed the and he ordered new ones.So I am using the car without these covers.

I saw a cable hanging, which was no where connected
Can anyone help me identify what is this cable for.
Should it be connected somewhere?


Thank you

Looks like your fog light connector. If your model came without fog lights, the cable is still present. Would just cable tie it out of the way then.

I also think, it's a fog light connector, but I can't find it on the other side and
also my model does not have fog lights.

Main feed for fog lights as part of the main wiring harness. Had your vehicle been equipped with fogs, then the two lights would have fed off of this connector.

It will be there regardless if you had them fitted or not. The other connector will be well tapped up and hidden by your crash frame. I wouldn't worry about it unless you want to use them to wire in a aftermarket fog light or Drl kit. I work with a lot of cars and finding spare connectors is so common. It's cheaper to make one wire loom than a different one for each car.
