Hello all,
So I purchased a 2000 Wrangler Sahara and started to clean up the hack wiring job the previous owner left after they ripped out an aftermarket alarm system.
Long story short, I secured all the wires except for these two in the picture.
Yellow wire and pink/white wire that I don’t see what/where it was connected to. It’s in the same wire loom as the OBD port and left speaker plug above the driver kick panel.
Where the heck do these go?
I ordered a service manual that won’t be in til next week.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Wild guess....does your Jeep have a hardtop with a dome light above the rear glass? When I was wiring my hardtop, I seem to recall that the dome light wires were yellow and pink/white. They would have run to the front as part of the body harness. If I'm right, not sure why the PO would have cut them. But, like I said, this is just a wild guess.

Yes I do have a hard top. That would make sense because the dome light doesn't work. I even tried to put the "door fuse" back behind the glove box and the fuse immediately popped. Hmm.. more electrical gremlins to hunt down..
 
Ok upon further investigation, that is my courtesy lamp connector that they cut the plug off of.. smh
EDIT:
YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!
I stumbled across the "How to wire your your hardtop" thread and followed all the wires.
PO cut the passenger side courtesy plug too but decided to cross both pink/white and yellow wires together which is why I kept blowing fuses.
Cleaned up both courtesy plugs, popped a fuse back into the "door defeat" and BAM, THERE IS LIGHT!

Awesome....so does your hardtop dome light above the glass work, or just the courtesy light?
 
I love PO hack jobs, don't unplug.. no no no no... cutting and shoving a wire screw over it seems more appropriate
 
Both front and rear hardtop dome lights work. For some reason the PO removed both driver/pass courtesy lights, so those wires are capped off.
You shouldn't have much trouble finding courtesy lights if you want to replace them.
