Name that sensor??

[ajmck]

G’day all

So excited my first thread… But anyway moving right along

Just a quick question. I'm in the process of fitting my CAI and I’ve found a bizarre censor I’m not sure what it does. I had a quick cruse around the site to see if anyone else has not known what it is but I came up empty handed. It’s a black circler sensor of about 1 inch diameter that appears to be microphone or something. It’s mounted on a small tin bracket with one bolt fixing it to the chassis from inside the wheel arch.

All I want to do is relocate it but I’m a little apprehensive to if its a knock sensor or something. I haven’t got a picture but I reckon I saw some else’s setup and they’d removed the sensor. Is it safe to move? And what is it for?

Better go as its Valentines Day and I’m already being accused by my gf of having a raunchy affair with my car!! They just don’t get it…

Thanks guys

Alarm sensor probably.

It's the sensor that triggers warp drive.

given its location id possibly say air bag sensor???

[ajmck]

Of the before mentioned i like the sounds of the warp drive senor... maybe i could get another!! As for the others its a 93 so no air bags and unless it had an alarm in japan its not that sides its got one of those standard nissan looking plastic clips that joins it to the wiring loom.

Thanks for the thoughts thou guys. Shouldn't matter if i relocate it to the other side of the CAP.
