Identify this wire

Post by prossett »

Found in the dashboard of a 1985 Reimo camper, 1.9L petrol water-cooled. The round ground was behind where the stereo would go, not attached to anything, and the sensor probe end was down behind the glovebox shelf, also not connected to anything.

Your 'sensor' wire is the aerial lead for the stereo


No idea about the ground, new to all this myself, but grounds are usally better bolted to something   :D
