Default What is this for and why is it disconnected? ('05 STi)

So I'm working on my wiring for my lights and I noticed a wire that is unconnected under the fuse box. It's obvious that the two green connectors are supposed to be together, but I was wondering if anyone might know why they were disconnected and whether or not I should reconnect them. Here are some pics of the wire and connectors...







I looked hard for a stock STi and I am starting to belive I bought one that had mods and was changed back to stock.

thats just your test mode connectors, they should be unplugged! the dealer will plug them in the run diagnostics or if you get into tuning and flashing your car you will need them to erase and installed new roms on the ecu

This gets asked at least once or twice a week. A quick search would have turned up the answer.
