anyone know what this module is called?

[demonpixel]

93 Camaro, car won't start, clicking noise coming from this box. Located between the accelerator pedal and the a/c blower motor, in the vicinity of the radio but more toward the firewall:



Wires coming from it are pink, blue, red, brown, and I think two other wires.

I thought it was the Passkey II Theft Deterrent Module but those have 8 wires coming from it, and they're different colors (no red, brown, or pink), so now I'm not sure if that's it.

Thanks for any help!

Are you sure this box is the culprit? Have you tested to see if the starter solenoid is getting power? Starter might be dead.

Unless that's your neutral safety switch, I don't think it affects the starting of the car. The Hayne's says the system is made up from the battery, starter and solenoid, neutral safety on manuals, and the ignition switch.

LIKe GR said, neurtral safety switch if you have a manual looks like it , when I pulled mine out, but you haven't given enough info on your car if its auto/ manual or anything. BCM is in the behind the glove box.

i think that box controls the automatic headlights and running lights. if you tired it in a kinda dark area that could be why it was clicking, it clicks when when the lights go on, if it hooks on to a clip on the firewall thats what it is cause if you cut the red wire and add a switch you can turn ur headlights off at night

Thanks guys, turns out it's the power windows auto-up module. lol

Probably not the culprit then; I think the culprit was leaving the key in the on position while hunting down wires and the constant starting the car.

Also, I know most of you have a BCM, but on 93 models, there is no BCM. Weird huh.

I appreciate the responses though, thanks again!
