Type 9 question

[GJUK]

Hello

 

I have just recently bought a type 9, to replace my current type9 (on a pinto in a mk1 escort).

 

Can someone tell me what these connections are for, and if they're required at all/what to do with them.

 

Thanks

 

 

 

Also I noticed this 'hole' is this anything to worry about?

 

 

Mucho thankyous.

i dont know what the wire thing is/was as thought it was electronic speedo. but i see in pic 2 you have the normal speedo drive? the nut with two brass knobs is the reverse light switch tho if its diffrent to what you have swap it over with yours. a bit of chemical metal should sort that hole out

its a speed sensor ,that box is out of a late sierra cvh with injection , youve still got the drive for cable so its fine . just leave the sensor there no need to wire it up ,
