What is that thing?

I looked under my hood @ the horn because I'm gonna swap out the piece o junk...and farther down it, I saw a knobby looking thing with two wires coming from it? What is that?Just wondering.Mike

That would be the Outside Temperature sensor.Related thread: http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=783

I was thinking that, but wasn't sure...On a related note, is there any way to change my temp reader to celsius? It's factory sent to farenheit, i guess because it's sold in the states, but i'm more comfortable with a celsius reading. I couldn't find anything in the manual...

Could be the air bag deployment sensor too. Don't hit it with a hammer.

Nah, definitely know it's not that. Those are usually integrated into the bumpers and ****. Never would be left out in the open like that.

Never would be left out in the open like that.Actually, you can see 2 of the airbag sensors and they are clearly not in the bumper.. at least the 2 I can see clearly are not. The one you can see is next to and down from the left side of the battery which is mounted on a main steel (?) beam. The other one is on the exact opposite side of the engine bay. The sensor says it is for the Aig Bag and not to touch.

Yet again, I am proven wrong. I stand corrected. LOL! I'll have to check that out tomorrow.
