I took the dash out yesterday to remove a few bits and change the heater controls and came upon this little box that has 2 wires coming out of it but the ends go nowhere. No real idea what it is but wondered if any of you boffins know what it is. Not the SLD is it?

 

Whatever it is - should it connect to something?

 

SWAMPY!!!!!!

Does it have any other wires going to it, ie power?

 

Stick a meter on the wires that are loose and see what you are getting when the car is off, running, or simply trace them back to see where they are joined to the loom, if its an SLD it will be cut into a speed signal.

I never cease to be amazed by how quickly someone can totally *$#~@ up a perfectly reliable, in fact compared to Ford and GM stuff, let me say an EXEMPLARY factory wiring harness, with a load of unneeded add on junk, added using Scotchlocks, choc blocks and random twisted wire and El Cheapo connectors. Nowadays I have fingers crossed when I pull the dash centre on a MKIV, fearing the worst as to what spaghetti I will find behind it. I have a car here now that had two turbo timers, two alarms and an unidentified gizmo that took hours to trace the wires to and from the front and rear of the car, only to discover they were chopped off at either end.
