Found in the boot of my MGB. It's a white plastic disc about the size of a coaster. It says "Smiths" on it and has a wire or two coming out of the edges. -- Trevor Boicey Ottawa, Canada tboicey@brit.

These are quite rare . . The item here was very popular here in the UK back in the '70. They were supplied to public houses free with the 'John Smiths' beer delivery. When plugged into a 12V power su

Wow. Forget working on this non-essential item called the fuel pump, I gotta get that thing working! I suppose, but it doesn't seem to have any fittings for any moving parts. It seems to be mostly so

How fat is it - will it fit in your picture scanner? Suppose at the end of the day you could blast some volts into it and see what happens - probably polarity sensitive though . . . Cheers == Chris

I pulled something very similar out of the base of my seat when I had them out. It is a flat switch that was activated when someone sat in the seat (don't remember if it was marked Smiths), and had

Although I really like the beer cooler coaster idea, the part you have found is one of the infamous seatbelt interlock warning arse pressure sensors that were used on American spec MGBs starting in

Is it kinda like a push-button style switch? It sounds very similar to the switches fitted to '74 cars as a government regulation. It fit under the seat, and was wired to the ignition switch and the

-- REPLY FROM: White, Richard H. I believe what you describe is a switch that was mounted on the bottom of the drivers seat. It detects that you need to connect your seatbelt, runs the buzzer and/or

Its the seat switch for the seatbelt interlock system. Obviously someone removed it at some time when the seats were out. When a body (warm or other wise) sits on the seat, the contacts in the switch

Don't recall what year your car is, but if it's around '74, this might be a seatbelt warning buzzer switch. They were required on cars in the US (don't know 'bout Canada) for only a couple years bef

Same here - on the passenger side of my '73...and the upholstery that came off that seat had the year '73 stamped on the inside. It would appear that the "arse pressure sensor" was used earlier than
