What is this in my Drivers Vent?, I need help identifying this wire! Options

[WALKER]

So I took off my drivers side vent last night because I wanted to look at what was back there for installing my UK fog light switch and while I had it off I noticed some electricians tape and a black wire with what looks like a sensor or microphone? I am assuming that this is not factory since it has electrical tape around it.

Anybody recognize what this is and if they have it on their car?

Thanks.









..and yes I know its dirty in there and I need to clean my vents, that will be another project!

If you have any information on what that is, let me know.
Thanks.

im guessing by the looks of the pic and your description its part of your alarm system sensor or a previous alarm system installed -R

Hehe funny I have those same sandals.

I would wonder what that was or what it was sensing for if it was for the alarm. If the wires still go somewhere trace them back or if they are disconnected see where they might have gone to.

Someone has been bugging you lol. Any problems with the government? To me it looks like something from an old alarm or something to that extent.

I was thinking that it may have been part of the old alarm system, since there is the little red light with two wires running from it which is for the alarm system.

Ever since I got the car I have been having issues with the alarm, I really need to pull my dash apart and trace all the wires back. Probably just buy a new alarm and install it.

I just don't know what the sensor would do if its in there, would it possibly be a microphone listening for glass break, is it a glass break sensor?

Who knows, thanks anyways!

P.S. Those sandels are great, so comfortable!
P.P.S. And it's probably your american government thats listening to me! Trying to find out what us crazy canucks are upto!
