Relay ?? Hidden behind Glove pouch.
Discussion
Today i started looking for an alternative place to locate my ECU, so i unscrewed and dropped down my glove pouch, and behind it there is a bit of a void, possibly suitable for this job. Anyhow in this void i found a pair of wires not connected to anything here:
..and something that looks a little bit like a relay with 2 spade terminals on it, which i'm guessing these 2 wires are off. Any idea's what this relay is ??

Yes Ozstyle, i do have air con, good spotting, any idea why this would be disconnected ? and if theres a polarity to the wires, as in what wire goes to what terminal ? I've always thought it was a bit mad fitting aircon to a convertable car, but there you go, thats TVR's for you...
Thanks for all the reply's guys

Hi,
I assumed the thermostatic switch is part of the A/C logic.
If the evaporator ices up the A/C compressor would shut off.
My car 94 Griffith 500 has a non adjustable item. Your pic looks more like an ajustable thermostat, which I think was fitted to later cars.
I would assume as yours is not connected then your A/C would not run as the circuit is permanently broken.
Obviuosly if your A/C works then I'm wrong and the system works different to the way I describe - unless some previous owner has been at your A/C wiring to bypass the thermostat.
I don't think it would make any difference which way the wires were connected.
The white and white/pink wires are the same colours that are at the loom to the trinary switch on the receiver/drier.
