Default What is.....?

Hi Guys,

Just been fiddling and looking around while I was trying to fix my horn, seems like the horn itself is stuffed as I can hear the battery ticking whenever I press the button on the wheel. Anyway, while I was there I found these.....



For a bigger image click HERE

Any ideas what they could be? They were just in front of the radiator, not connected or working. There were also several other connections and wires that are no longer connected. Now as I said, I'm as mechanical as a banana, so stop laughing if it's obvious.

Cheers

Daz

I've followed the cables and they appear to be connected but they dont work. Just seemed an odd thing to have on an EA Falcon.......

Yeah they looks like some kinda spoties. I don't know why they have different coloured lenses. Were the mounted to anything. Pull the lenses off. Or better yet pull them both out.

As for the horn, i'm sure there's heaps of people on here who's have spares, I think Sundeep mentioned it in your other thread. I threw 2 out in the hard garbage.

Neons that where popular some 12 months ago, as bright as 1watt bulb and absolutely useless.

Well, they've been moved to a more deserving location, along with the alarm that didn't work.....

Next stop replace the dead horn and then fix the central locking, for some reason (prolly electrical?) the passenger side door doesn't like playing with the other ones.....I'll teach the little b*****d.

the previous owner must have left them behind when he traded the Falcon for a fully sick Commodore
