black box in footwell

Post by jasonxr2racer » Sat Feb 14, 2015 7:53 pm

Was chopping some of the unwanted wiring loom away today from the 5th Gen racecar

There is a black box attached to the ABS control unit in the passenger footwell area

What is it for as there were no markings on it to tell what it was

Just so I know if I can remove it or not

Cheers

I've removed ABS plugs etc but ABS pump and lines will have to stay until next year.

The black box was at the side of the silver ABS control unit

What do you think Nathan IED?
I have kleptomania,
But when it gets bad,
I take something for it.

Possibly, but I've not got much of a clue, which is why I asked for a picture :lol:
