Thread: Little Green Box Ticking

I suspect that one of the bumps triggered the inertia switch. I think that it will be in the engine bay, mounted to the firewall.

Hopefully someone will be along to tell you exactly where it is and how to reset it (normally a push of a button).

Best of Luck,
Peter

Thanks Bushwanderer you are correct, the green box is the housing for the inertia switch. Unfortunately Series 1 doesn't have reset button, you have to switch the ignition off and on a couple of times to reset (read that in the manual!). My bigger problem was the green box was only fixed at one point and was loose. I've spent the afternoon skinning my right hand trying to locate and tighten a nut on the forward end of the box. Finally gave up and used double sided tape and a very tight nut on the rear end of the box!!
