Hi, I am trying to get one cap from the brake fluid reservoir for my 1980 400i Ferrari. I am also happy to buy the entire secondhand [used] reservoir if necessary. Also do you know what the item [A*] shown below, inside the glove compartment does? There is also a toggle switch which appears to have OEM wiring attached to it! Any clues??? Cheers David Roberts [email protected] Unit in glove compartment has A8 on it also antibrina valves and avian valves Image Unavailable, Please Login
David, I believe I have the cap/reservoir you need if it has a black electrical (dual bullet) connector under the cap. I will check it and send you a mail but I am pretty sure that you can find the same cap from an ATE reservoir from another European car. Regards WM
Hello David, re. the unit indications, page 113 of the owner manual for the 1979 400i (manual 176/79): Central box X- A8:Anti-frost valve for twin air conditioning system. Z- A8:Thermo-time switch for start valve.
My '84 400i has a toggle switch in glove box which turns on the hand held courtesy light which has a coil-type retractable wire. The light was clipped in for storage just to left of glove box (LHD). Sounds like yours was removed but I do not have the controls you show in photo. Ken
My 1983 with dual a/c was the same as Ken's except I did have the courtesy light. No controls or switches labeled AB or like shown.
