The carpet (felt) in the front trunk was wet so today I decided to pull it out and dry it all properly. What I found defies description.

The floor is badly rusted and the battery area recess is probably the worst. The entire front load area has so many holes dilled in it that it looks like Swiss cheese. Goodness knows what the previous owners have needed to mount in there. Probably the worst find was the size of the holes which appear to have been sliced open with a cold chisel to feed the control wiring for the CD changer unit, and the lack of any sort of grommets where the main battery supply line enters the cabin.

Seems that a recent owner discovered that if they purchased one of the front compartment felt kits and glued in in place over the rusty steel, that everything would look all nice again and hide a myriad of sins.

So, back to the cutting and welding to repair it all properly as I've had to do with the floor and the sill. Ah well...............

Anyway, mounted on the verticle forward section of the front trunk near to the washer bottle, there is a small electrical component with a red rubber button on top. It's mounted on what appears to be two factory small studs so I think it's a genuine something or other!

It has a Ford part number and three wires could go to it, but only one wire actually does go to it on my car. Part Number: D4AB-11A138-CA FORD is written on it.

I looked thru the parts manual and I can't seem to locate it. Any ideas?

Could it have something to do with a reset switch for the low front pads or something as silly as that?
