A/C Vent.

 

i thought it was a mail slot ?

 

I use it to scoop up roadkill. Mmmmm tasty!

 

Okay, if this is silly 348 question time, I don't want to miss out....

What are the two raised housings on the rear firewall in the cockpit?

Thanks.

The main ECU's are behind there. Pull the covers and have a look. The diagnostic test buttons are in there too.

 

Those are the Electronic Control Units. One unit is for cylinder banks 1-4, and the other is for cylinder banks 5-8.

Removing either of those panels allows access to a red button, which is a component of an on-board diagnostic system. Using the red button, there is a procedure by which you can diagnose what the "Check Engine" lights are trying to tell you. There was a recent thread on this procedure.

 

Isn't the TR the same way? I think so.

 

Cheers guys! I've read sooooo many threads on those ECU's and always wondered where they were stored! I thought they must be lurking in the corner of the engine bay somewhere.

Anyways, it's put paid to my idea to replace those housings with a decent sound system!

I thought they were speakers when I first got the car!

 

its just a gaping hole.

 

Off the subject, I love the avatar John....I wish they would bring them back.

 

And then you go and change it!

 

thats where the spare tire goes !
