Alarm system part...unsure

[mharvey73]

Hi gang,

Just curious... Has anyone seen this thing in their right from engine bay area? I found this kind of dangling down the other day, un plugged. I am guessing it may go to the missing alarm on my car. I deduce this because the other tie in is also sitting there unconnected about where the alarm normally is installed. Any help is appreciated.

yup, should clip into a hole in one of the brake cooling ducts, if the ducts are missing you can just zip-tie it up

Well, I thought the air temp sender was a longer pointy thing? I also thought it was on the drivers side and not the passengers side? Are we sure we are thinking about the same critter? Thanks in advance.

Depends on the year.

Its a 96. If it helps I have found two other cut wires on the drivers side. Of course with the history of this car it is missing the valanc/air dam panel that mounts to the lower skirt. I guess that is why my brake duct is missing too.
