Default Help identifying a loose connector under console. please!

I have an 01 C4 Cab and am in the process of installing the Console Delete kit and I think I have accidentally disconnected a cable and I can't seem to find where it needs to be plugged back in. It is the pictured 4 pole connector on the left with green and brown wires ( the one on the right is the %&@! DSP connector!). I was trying fish my heated seat wiring up to the dash and I must have pulled this connector.

I temporarily put everything else back together to test that everything worked, since I had to remove the radio, climate unit, and the PSM switch to move the heated seat switches and I received no warning lights - so I am not sure what it could be.

Any info is greatly appreciated! (Oh yeah - it is marked BMW!)

Maybe this is the accessory Phone connector, and it is unused?

I do believe that is the phone connection.

Phone prep connector:

Brown = Ground
Yellow/Black = telephone mute
Green/Black = switched 12V
Red/Green = un-switched 12V

Yup. Perfect source for fused, switched power for any aftermarket electronics.
