Subject:      "Recorder with warning switch" - what is this?
Content-Type: text/plain

Can anyone tell me what the function of this thing is? (Yes Malcolm, I already looked in the archives) It's a black box about 3" square that the speedometer cable passes through. A 5-wire connector is attached, 3 of 5 contacts occupied. Located under the van just forward of the front, left wheel on a 2WD. Not all vans seem to have them. Just about all the Golf/Jettas I looked at at the junkyard on Saturday have them mounted under the hood up where the wipers are in front of the driver. On the Golf/Jetta, the wires from this thing pass through the firewall in the same bundle with the wires for the cruise control vacuum pump... but this "recorder" doesn't have anything to do with the cruise control system, does it?

Thanks, Doug Fitz-Randolph Freeport, ME
