Neilp Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 There should be a white box with the cable coming out of it. Was the car a write-off or what? What are you actually doing to the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Yes if you remove the gear surround and heater controls behind there tucked away at the back is a white box with a ribbon cable coming out of it. This is the control unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 It's very easy to damageq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the control unit. Yep I think he's already in at it, I reckon its not there to be honest as it is pretty obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Or maybe the ribbon cable has been ragged off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilp Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Or maybe the ribbon cable has been ragged off? looking at his previous posts, he's bought this car which was getting sold off as parts and bought the lot and now rebuilding it. I'm gonna hazard a guess that the breakers already sold this part OP can you please take some pictures and upload them to photobucket, copy the IMG tag and paste it in a post on this thread. It will make it much easier for us to help you out. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveW Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Agh, I didn't realise that. In that case I Think that's the most likely explanation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon.young Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 i will get a pic tomorrow of it but by the sounds of it, like people have said its been taken already, because if their is a control box i assume the other 3 bigger plugs fit in to this then the ribbon cable connects the two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
