Strange hidden little plug centre console.
Found this little plug hidden behind my Navall3 stereo whilst trying to get the steering wheel controls working (still dont!). Any ideas what it might be for? thanks for reading

That's the plug for the traction control master switch.

a lot of them do have the wiring in place even though the car doesn't have traction control fitted. It's due to standard looms being fitted to cars which include the wiring for various options even if not fitted to the car.
My typhoon ZT has the same blue plug for traction control even though it doesn't have it fitted. My firefrost ZT had the full loom for cruise control and electric heated seats and the powerblind even though all of these weren't fitted from factory. |

Found traction control on my 190 to be utterly useless and annoying. Pretty much always switched it off. |

Yes, leave the little blue plug well alone, traction is the last thing you want to retrofit.
