Does anybody know what this is?



This slot is empty on my car, and I'm trying to figure out if it was empty before the car thieves got to me.

Thanks

all three of my cars have nothing in that spot.

No worries, it's nothing.

Yeah huh, if you put a fuse in there it enables your ejector seats

Somebody told me yellow is airbags. Do you guys know anything about that?

Okay, I found out what this is, but I still don't know if my car is supposed to have one. For those of you that are curious this is what I found:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The little yellow thing holds a fuse called the "Ignition Off Draw" fuse (IOD). The term ignition-off draw identifies a normal condition where power is being drained from the battery with the ignition switch in the Off position. The IOD connector feeds the memory and sleep mode functions for some of the electronic modules in the vehicle as well as various other accessories that require battery current when the ignition switch is in the Off position, including the clock.

The IOD connector can be used by the vehicle owner as a convenient means of reducing battery depletion when a vehicle is to be stored for periods not to exceed about twenty days (short-term storage). Simply disconnect the IOD connector from the JB receptacle slot # 15 and place it in slot # 11 (see diagram above). However, it must be remembered that disconnecting the IOD connector will not eliminate IOD, but only reduce this normal condition. When a vehicle will not be used for more than twenty days, but less than thirty days, remove the IOD fuse from the Power Distribution Center (PDC).

So, now I just have to figure out if I'm supposed to have one. I've looked at a 1990 Talon, and it didn't have one. I've looked at a 1992 Talon and it did. So, is there anyone out there with the exact same car as me that can tell me if they have an I.O.D. Connector in that slot on there relay / fuse block on the passenger side under the hood?

By the way, my car is a 1991 Talon TSi FWD 2.0L Turbo.

Thanks for the help.
