Hi all,

New here, I have a lc5 invincible and whilst replacing the batteries the other day I found a cap / cover. No idea where it lives, I can see it has two pins on the inside and it refers to air con coolant “refrigerant must be evacuated” “for low pressure” on the label. Can any expert advise where this should live?  

I’ll share a pic once I can!



Thanks

A quick search on the part number shown in one of your pics suggests its a special tool to "quick release" air conditioning pipework. Looks like somebody accidentally left it in your engine bay and it is not oart of the car.

Thank you modvrs! Explains why I couldnt find it a home.... Should have tried that myself, especially as I work in IT. Didn’t think too!

I’ll sell mine on if they are worth $135 dollars, it’s a bit of plastic with 2 little prongs on it! Lol

Thanks again!
