Peeps,

While looking to see if I had any prewiring for my MO for the alarm, I came across this thing. It looks like it has some handle on it and a uni behind the metal, this pic was taken in the rear left hand arch. You can see the tilt sensor mounting area, but I don't know what this is. Any suggestions?

Manual release for the fuel filler cap?

Manual release for the fuel filler cap?
You are correct sir.

Alas not a fuel filler, the lever-y bob didnt move, it felt like it'd snap if i pulled it off..

Horgy

Snapped mine this morning. My gas lid would not open. I locked the car, unlocked the car, left it started, shut if off, .........................

I pulled the lever as it states in the manual, Page 95, and it snapped off. Still could not get the gas lid off. I reached in and tugged on the cable, it came off of whatever it is attached to, but it did allow me to open the gas lid.

It does not lock now, but at least it won't get stuck again. Looking for replacement white lever and to see what a job it is to reseat the cable.

May wait until Spring.
