Dumb Q, Yellow thing?

[1985xjlaredo]

What is the Yellow box that is behind my dash panel under the steering column?
:geek:It has 2 screws in it that go through the bottom of the dash

I believe it is for the cruise control.

[Jess]

it is cruise control

In the 80's models they also had the alarm unit under there too.

Oddly enough, the adjustment screws on the cruise control say "steering". Must be a bad French->English translation somewhere.

Yea "steering" that is what through me off. And then there is a little box with some gears in it looks like a cheapo clock gear or some thing. It was running when I had the lower panel off to mount my CB. Anyone know what that is?

[Jess]

there is a maintanance timer under there, but I don't think it is yellow

[1985xjlaredo]

So the clear plastic thing that has the gears in the back of it and sounds like a clock spinning is a maintenance timer? When does it "go off"? Cause this jeep has 243,000 on it and its an 88. So it is long past due for maintenance
