what does this thing do ??? its a small black box and it says bosch (spelling) on top of it... it looks like a relay of soem sort.. when i first got the car that thick oarnge wire wasnt hooked up so i hooked it back up what does this thing do?

 

here is the pic

 

I may be wrong here but I do believe that is called the left hand actuator relay for the left headlight door.

 

Headlight doors on a Camaro?

 

Well I did say I may be wrong here. I had just gotten through responding to a post on a 86 firebird and it must have given me a brain fart. It does appear to have a fusible link and is on the drivers side.

 

yeah im stuped to to what its for and it does look factory to me so it has to go to soemthing... ill trace the wires tomorow and see what i coem up with.

 

It seems a little too far forward for it but do you have foglamps?

 

yes the car did coem with fog lights they arnt on the car any more but the two wiring harneses are there going to each side with the mounting brackets still there .... could this be what thats for... i seen that that oarnge wire was un hooked so i hooked it back up but i havent noticed anything new with the car at all.

 

The foglamp relay is located on that side and does have a fusible link going to it. However on my 89 it is located back towards the firewall under the hood strut.

 

lol ill have to check it out tomrow

 

i might be wrong here but I will guess Fuel Pump fuse....

 

fan relay!short and sweet at least thats the one in my 87

 

im pretty sure my fan relay is on the other side i was messing with it the other day...

 

I can double check my car tomorrow but i'm pretty sure that is the foglight relay. The fuel pump relay is on the firewall and the fan relays are next to the battery.
