Can anyone tell me what this burnt out wiring used to rum. It's directly behind the dash. The red connection.

Also I recently noticed that the 2 sets of wires that come out of the transfer case have been cut off leaving 1m of wire. I am guessing they run the tacho and 4wd light indicator as they both don't work. Maybe that's connected to the burnt connection behind dash?

Many thanks

It's a grounding junction for several accessories. Your headlights probably burned it up.

To prevent that from happening again in the future and causing a fire and burning your car to the ground, install a relay wiring harness for your headlights. ARB has a good one. Easy to install

More info can be found

The transfer case has a ground wire that normally attaches to it. See pic below. There is also one screw in spring loaded switch on the p side of the case that turns the 4WD light on & off. That's what the ground wire is for.
