Whats this thing ??


Afternoon all. I am hoping there is a picture attached to this

Any one got any idea what this is, it is bolted to the bonnet landing panel just above the n/s top corner of the rad.
Noticed today it has a broken wire, but ive not noticed anything not working.

Maybe why i have had the air bag light on for ages, looks like the wires have been through the mill, strange when nothing there to get at them.

I park it on a farm while at work and the guy i got it from was a game keeper so it would have been around farms for a few years. Rodents chewing it could well be whats happened.
Cheers for that.

Replaced about 8 inches of the wire, soldered new spade connectors on and its cured the air bag light problem as well.
Happy days Thumbs Up
