Ok, I had to tear my trunk liner out (as well as the entire rear seat and trim) to try to track down a rattle that is driving me crazy! Anyway, I ran across this "horn" looking thingy. Even the service department hasn't a clue what it is for. I am thinking maybe part of the active alarm system? Any ideas?

That is the tracking device that is mandated by the U.S government to be placed on all cars starting with the 05 model year.

Maybe it's the secret spyware thingy to track what your up to.

No, but I do think you should lend your camera to STR4T0S so he can get better pictures of his new car :doh:

It is the horn for the anti theft system.

 

[mustangbaxter]

the horn for the antitheft is the same as the car horn

 

[Stoopy]

It's the thing that's making the rattling sound you were looking for in the first place.

the horn for the antitheft is the same as the car horn

 

[mustangbaxter]

I stand corrected..........

Hmmm. I just went out and did a test. Opened the trunk and pushed the panic button. Nope, not a peep from that thing. Then I armed the system with a window down and the trunk open, stuck my arm in the car, and that little sucker started making its little import car beeps. Cool! I bet it is a backup to the main horn in the event a thief pulls the horn wires or something. Thanks for the info. I gotta let my service department know about this one. :wavey

Oh if only that were true! My dealer had it in the shop a whole day and even they couldn't figure out where the rattle was coming from! :shrug

 

[rondog]

Part of the diagnostic system????

Dammit, I been looking for that piece to my bong!

Yeah Stoenr, If you wouldn't mind lending me your camera. I can only get down to about a 1/4 mile on frisch's house via satellite. I may need a few extra megapixels to really get the clarity on his car....Thanks Willis!
