So little quiz. How well you know your pandar.

Clue it's on NSR arch.

what is this thingy?

It's under passenger seat RHD. and whats the connector for?

My guess is some sort of sensor to know car hasn't rolled over and cuts stuff of?

I have a Subwoofer unit and this plug matches but no BOOM BOOM!

This is under the Drivers seat RHD

Next i have two Abarth 500 seats with these plugs

Do i have the facility to have Winter BUM warmers?

Little bit of fun but im also being dead serious, as i have no workshop manual that is as good as a Haynes Manual! :rolleyes:

Kind Regards Baggey
 
Not sure about the connector in picture 2 but is the "thingy" you asked about the fuel cutoff switch?
Picture 1 - Earth blocks are dotted about the Panda Theres another under the windscreen scuttle.
Not sure about picture 3, as I can't identify the connector from the picture (pins not visible)
Pics 4 &5 Would have expected those connectors to be for the seat airbags, but they don't look the same as the ones on my Arbarth seats.

Could you please educate me! I could Google. But value your insight 🤗 I can get detailed colors if needed.
Electronic Stability Programme

Sensor reads yaw and g force and is combined with steering angle sensor

Then automatically apply brakes individual wheels via ABS and controls the throttle, to regain control in a slide
 
Black is probably seat occupancy as the divers seat normally doesn't have one, and I guess the other maybe the seat belt, not all arbath seats are wired the same, some don't have airbags for example, your best asking on the 500 section

Me and the misses were getting exited when we thought we may have Winter BUM warmers. 🤗

Ill get better pics of the connectors. As i would like to know the pin outs. Especially for the Boom Boom box!

Would be nice to get hold of a good wiring diagram for the 100hp.

Theres another silver box mounted on the tunnel right by the steering rack where it comes into the footwell.

Awesome! I can bell out some wires now! Me thinks there was a plug with some wires behind the old radio. :cool:

The sound system at the mo in the car is a Pioneer Double din Head unit and E-Type alpines all round but it sounds :poop:. It had the white screen of death but just needed reworking with the solder station. To bring it back to life!

If i cant get an improvement i may try an android unit running Lynux and AIMP BLACK ONYZ. I have a set off logitek 5.1 Speakers. That would sound well nice. Ive stuck layers of sound insulation on everything.
 
To be fair

They seem more reliable than stacking multi ring eyelets onto one stud

Probably just quicker in manufacturing, and harder to mess up
That's what im used to seeing stacked rings. Or on the VW they use an earth dognut type disc under steering column.

Is this something i could retro fit or does the ECU need programming for it?

All i got todo now is relate these to Kolars diagram and jobs a BOOM! BOOM! ;)

Yes, no, maybe

It will need the correct ABS module as well

The yaw or slew senor which ever you like to call it

Only has six connectors

Power, ground, canbus H X2 canbus low X2

So if you plug it in and do a proxi align the body computer should recognise it and add it


Two pins on the abs module are used to switch ESP off, I suspect missing these wires the EPS will just be permanently on, I don't know I have never tried myself

Someone on here is fitting an engine and ABS from a 100hp into a 4x4 but the results aren't in yet
