Riddik New Member 12 Member For: 8y 10m 9d Posted 19/02/16 05:14 AM Share Posted 19/02/16 05:14 AM While changing the Brake Booster I came across a wire that's not connected and is just laying loose. It has a terminated end to be screwed or bolted somewhere, and is about a foot long from the firewall, where it about 50mm to the right hand side (looking from the front of the car). I can't see where it would have been connected. It looks as though it's been a bit toasty, I'm guessing from the extractors which were fitted before we got the vehicle, and may have been disconnected for a reason. I can fix the wire and put heat shield on it, but have no idea where, or what it's supposed to be doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riddik New Member 12 Member For: 8y 10m 9d Posted 19/02/16 06:08 AM Author Share Posted 19/02/16 06:08 AM Upon looking again, that cable is more like 2 feet long. I drew a red circle in the first photo where the cables comes out of the firewall. I did place a screwdriver to point at the location, but I didn't think it came out too clearly.

Riddik New Member 12 Member For: 8y 10m 9d Posted 19/02/16 06:47 AM Author Share Posted 19/02/16 06:47 AM I've been looking through a pdf service manual, and haven't been able to find anything relating too it so far. Hence, why I asked here. Makes me wonder what was removed. Apart from something to do with original exhaust like a sensor, seeing as it's had extractor's fitted, I don't know what would be missing. It's obviously nothing too vital, as the car runs fine. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
