hey guys...i need your help to tell me what this is...(I don't know what to search for)
A long time ago, i post something asking if there is a light by the pedal...the answer is obviously a 'no'
But I for sure saw a light coming near my pedals and my friend saw it too. I have finally found the "thing" that lights up..but dont know what the heck it is.
Here are some pictures:
Circled


It lights up when i drive over some rough surface; in this case, it even lights up when I touch it!!

last pic
The lights labeled "L1, L2, Senadj"

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!

 

Hum, didn't even notice there is a light there... lemme go check it out

 

shock sensor for an alarm system.

 

FBI. Tracking device.

 

Damn Bri, that's one ballsy badger!!

 

for sure is not a FBI tracking device...haha!

so do you guys have one???

 

Looks like a very poorly installed shock sensor! They are normally mounted to a solid surface. Someone got lazy.

 

Might be an explosive device. Do you owe any gangster some money?

 

shock sensor? didnt know the Z had one. my parents pontiac goes off in thunder or if you bump it, Z doesnt.

sure its not affiliated with the traction control? I know theres yaw and G sensors in the cabin in various areas...

 

yeah i have one.. it has something to do with the alarm. however, I'm not sure if it's part of the factory alarm or my aftermarket alarm.

 

Kinda on topic but kinda not..

A friend of mine was staring directly into my headlight ( car off, lights off) just admiring the car. His face was about 6 inches from the lamp and all the sidden out of nowhere the alarm goes off and flashes the HID's and honks the horn right in his face... Man, you should have seen thim jump.

So oviously there's some kind of sensor.. There were some people being pretty loud somewhat near by.

 

Thanks guys............but........what i really want to know is, do you guys have it??

 

When I was installing a switch I never noticed it. I might check it out again.

 

If it's ticking, quickly remove all your mods and run like hell!

 

It's for the dragstrip. You're suposed to wait till the light turns green then floor it, hold the wheel strainght and by the time you get your head up from under the dash you'll be at the end of the quarter.

 

OMG, chris has asked 80 times and no one can give him anything but srcastic replies. :P Chris, i'd check mine out, but my car is in storage.

 

I finally got a chance to check through the Z shop manual CD but was not able to find anything in the security, immobilizer, supplemental restraint, or electrical system sections after about an hour of browsing. That doesn't mean it isn't in there. When it gets warmer and dryer, I'll take a look under the dash and try again. An after market alarm sensor seems plausible, perhaps protecting/warning against tampering with circuit continuity?
