What The Heck Is This?

Found it hooked up in my trunk...only one wire coming from the fuse box, loose wire not connected to anything. Tried lookinjg up the company and found nothing. Anyone know anything about it?

(my Son thinks its a tracking device...too obvious IMO)

Well, the thing that says Mallory on it is a buzzer.

That would be a small amp. The above is probably no more than 2"x2".

Not much of an amp...not hooked up either. Strange. Worth anything? Think I should hook it up?

Nothing in there suitable for use in a tracking device. What are the numbers on the chip?

Was this located in the front or rear of the car?

Couple of possibilities: Low battery alarm or back-up beeper.

I.C.C. = IMPORT COMPLIANCE COMPONENTS, INC.

I don't think that company exists anymore. They had something to do with making imported cars compliant here.

One of the owners of I.C.C. is listed at a different address in Orange and still has something to do with imported cars. At current name is "Import Certification Lab, Inc."

The phone number is now an old age home.

Seatbelt buzzer? 55mph buzzer? Do you have a grey market car?

Timer is a sensitive word here. LOL Yes it looks like a buzzer but why would it be in his trunk? Or did he mean truck.

Take if off and see how your car runs. If it don't you gotcherself what they call an essential part and don't F^#k with it. Hook it bsck up. Don' forget to pry your way into the trunk in case it's an alarm. If it goes off while you're pryin' the trunk lid open you gotcherself an alarm.
If nothing happens try screw two of em on there. If you go faster, ya got yerself a gofaster, and now you got dual gofasters. Aint nothin' wrong with that. If nothing ever happens no matter what you do you go whatchacall a soupurbulis part.Take if off and feed it to the squirrels.
