Default Help with Bosch mystery module

Hi folks,
I have a 1990 coupe and there is a Bosch sensor/module mounted directly below the radio. Does anyone know what this is for? It is about 2" long, and 1" tall/wide. It has three wires connecting to the front side (as you are looking at it). Bosch part # 0 265 005 101

Thanks much!!

If it has yellow wires or yellow wraped wireing loom it is bart of the airbag reatraint system.

It is your lateral acceleration monitor. It keeps the ABS from being active in a hard turn situation (short version)

You beat me to it. Just had a look on my 1992 manual and in that it is the lateral acceleration monoter.

It is the acceleration monitor. I thought it was used for the radio to turn itself up when at high speed. The outer ring around the volume control has three positions, off, low and high. High is for running with the top off.
