What's this? (Engine bay)

[Inequality Street]

Had a new battery put in my 172, and outs this plug not attached to anything, any idea's?

Also, fuse box case in the pic is knackered, any idea on a price for a new one?

New fuse box lid is £20 ish from Adam.

That might be for the fog lights but im not 100% sure.
By the looks of thing's you are missing the battery + cover.

Collected today! and what's a bonnet pin switch/where does it belong?

 

[AlexW]

On the slam panel, there may be a little stick sticking out next to the bolts on the right. Not that important tbh.

that's not the bonnet pin switch.

It goes to the acoustic valve.

Could this be why I'm getting MAJOUR induction noise then? Thought something was up haha Will it do any harm leaving it? Kinda like the sound tbf

Will be fine to leave it alot of people remove acoustic valve.

Fine to leave it unplugged. Just make sure the vacuum pipe to the inlet is Sealed
