Loose cable in passenger footwell

Featured Replies

I have noticed a loose cable in the passenger (nearside) footwell.  Photos below.

 

Any ideas?

 

Also the foam type material to cover the underside area of the glove box is secured by one plastic button (about 1cm in diamater, looks like a push in securing button).  Should there be more or other securing devices?

I think that cable plugs in to the switch on the right hand side so the light turns on when you open the glovebox.

Thanks.

I have got bright sunshine at the moment so cannot determine if the glovebox light comes on, so will check later.

Also the connection point is not visible so could be a case of needing to remove the glovebox so a job for a few days time.

Just to note, the glovebox is really easy to remove, takes seconds. No tools needed.  Bit hard to explain via words...

 

Watch the first 30 seconds of this video

Dark now.  No light from glove box.  I guess it got disconnected when the pollen filter was changed.

 

We are using the car a lot for a day or so and therefore will follow the video at the week-end.

 

Thanks again.

Fixed.

 

The video was very useful.  I watched it a few times before removing the glove box.

 

It was the light connection.

 

All now working again.

 

Thank you
