Hi
Hope someone can help me here. I decided to buy a new battery, so removed the existing one at the weekend. When I went to put the new battery in, I noticed two extra cables near the battery bay:
1) One is a clear rubber tube, can't see where it leads to, but don't know what the hell it is - could it be some sort of drainage pipe, but then if so, where should it end up?
2) The other is a cable with a screw on the end, the cable runs along the front inside line of the luggage compartment, but again, i don't know where it ends ups. I'm not sure where this is supposed to be screwed, but at the moment, the dangling screw is near the postive cable of the battery. I thought it may be some sort of earthing for a previous owners amp perhaps. But as I know *** all about electrics, I can't be sure of this.
I can't now drive my car, as the two problems are bugging me, and I can't justify calling a mechanic over to have a look, as it may be a simple set of issues. I also don't want to connect tyhe battery, in case I dislodged something vital when I took the battery out.
I am therefore Porsche-less unless someone can help.
thanks
