Ok, I am such a noob when it comes to things that look out of place. What is the extra box next to my fuse panel?

Thanks.

Doesn't look stock, maybe aftermarket alarm?

Where do the 4 wires go? Trace them backwards. I'm betting old car alarm.

Oh.....

Look at that. That is very rare.....

NO IDEA!

I know I need a better schematic

that is the shock sensor for aftermarket alarm; always hot, if you tap it, an LED should flash.

What's in the box? The Future

CUT THE RED WIRE! THE RED WIRE!

Alarm? Definitely aftermarket.

I don't know...I'm thinking either factory alarm or perhaps a dealer installed item....

I'm pretty sure that's a bomb!

Old solid state alarm, Clifford...Ungo?
I just pulled an oldie out of the '74 roller, must have been wires going in every direction: a train wreck !

It's an digital/analog interface device for a flux capacitor. :-D

Just keep it under 88....it's nothing...


Reminds me of something I got for Christmas that never worked...

Looks like a Transponder so if you cash they can send search planes out to find you.
So don't turn it off. OK?

if anyone wants one, I have few for sale for a $10 shipped, though it is not transparent. get them fast, inventory depleting....

NO, NO, I MEANT THE YELLOW WIRE.....WAIT, GRAY WIRE........!

Car Alarm. The chip (LM2902) is dated 9248 (48th week of 1992).... The rubber band looking thing is probably a vibration sensor.

I doubt it is an alarm.
There aren't enough connections.
Car alarms have lots of pins typically on a header to sense and control things.
Plus the LM2902 is an op amp, a simple amplifier, not any sort of microcontroller.
I'm with dangrouche in that it is just the motion sensor
for alarm that is/was somewhere else.
