Mayolives Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 My 82 turbo car came from Montana and has a block heater with female 110 volt connector terminating at the front bumper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy280zxt Posted December 26, 2008 Author Share Posted December 26, 2008 Well the thing is it connected to a plug behind the plate and it just ends.....strange? Pretty sure its not a block heater though. thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Define 'connector'. If it's 110V, then a block connector is the most logical iteration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasper Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 If it's not block heater related...I'd guess it is an ambient temp sensor, for temperature display. Common place for this sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nismopowered Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 A plate light? You didnt say front or rear? If its the front then I agree with the ambient temp sensor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
280zx 2by2 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 front or the back bumper? and pics would make this thread the shiznit my guess if its the front, mabe a horn if its the back, probly a licence plate light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roger.svoboda Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 if you got the digital dash then it is definitely (or should be) connected to the climate control as an ambient temp sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy280zxt Posted December 27, 2008 Author Share Posted December 27, 2008 Sorry..its the front bumper. I was sitting on a stool and flipped the bumber on its end so i could get a better look in it. its no S#!t connected to a blank off connector right behind the bumper passenger side of the bumper right behind the licence plate. It might be a temp sensor but im not sure. Its just something id like to find out about??? Thanx for the info. Hey roger hows it going? I still need to get the club info from ya....
