The sunroof harness runs that-away, (but does your VSX have a sunroof?) as does the the wiring for the IR dome.

On the S1 Xantias the central locking is triggered by an Infra Red (IR) remote control.

OK so the wire that has been cut is part of the central locking by remote.

Just had another look and the cut wire is the phone antenna so nothing to worry about thanks for all your suggestions. Neil
