Just wondering if anyone could tell me what this is?

Probably a very noobish question but knowledge is power

Thanks

 

Looks like it might have been for a weird tuner. Maybe one that didnt use the OBDII?

 

ejection seat lever

 

Looks like an equalizer from the Don Johnson era

 

That's your VTEC controller.

 

But seriously, it's probably a turbo timer.

 

awesome I always wanted an ejection seat!

Anyways thanks for trying to explain what it is. I got the car used so guess there is no telling why the previous owner had that input terminal put there.

 

Upon further inspection (actually looking at the picture), it's probably something you should remove.

 

but do not..i repeat DO NOT cut the red wire before the green wire

 

It's the blue wire dude.

"DO NOT cut the red wire before the blue wire"

 

And dont even think about these wires if you havent cut the white one first.

 

$hit your right its been so long... my b OP... close one

 

Take a photo from underneath it, there is probably a marking on the bottom. You are showing us the side. Given that it has a metal case, it is probably disapating heat and thus a controller or amp of some kind.

And don't cut the brown wire, FFS, it could be very bad - biblical times, cats and dogs living together, wrath of god kind of stuff. Just imagine a twinkie the size of 20 city blocks.

those would be your clutch, brake and acceleration/gas pedals. In that order.

better pics please, or more details. Looks very foreign to us.

 

Sorry for the lack of details. The input terminal connects to this control box that is zip tied to the steering wheel column or whatever it is called. I can see some writing on the back but not enough to tell what it is. Guessing it might have to do with the speakers maybe?... min and max setting on it.

Apologize for the picture quality... iphone 3gs weaksauce camera :/

 

im going to go with remote amp/radio control

did you check under your seat and in the rear compartments for an amp or an set of loose wires or amp?

 

No I have not checked any where for an amp. I assumed the car had stock audio equipment. when I got the car it had the stock radio and the speakers didn't sound that great. Its a 05 base. Maybe Ill do some more poking around and see if I can find anything else. Thanks for the input

 

Do u have an aftermarket alarm in it? Could be poor placement of the motion sensor...

 

looks like an amp control to me. weird how it doesn't have a logo or brand name etched anywhere

 

Thats also my bet
