Default Mystery Part

Greetings Gentleman.

My CS is getting a little long in the tooth. After 10 years, I am getting the inevitable rattles, creaks, and groans. I have this one rattle that seems to be coming from the right right quarter panel. I inspected the R/R storage area and I came across a peculiar piece. I had removed the CD player from my system awhile back. The picture shows a rubbery black strap. One end is attached the the gas door latch solenoid. The other end has a triangular nipple that looks like its supposed to into a hole. I found the nipple end just laying unattached. I don't think this is the source of the rattle but I can't seem to figure out what it is.

Anyone know what this part is for and how is it supposed to be attached?

If your gas tank won't open with the button/solenoid, you can open it manually with that cable.

emergency operation 1 fuel filler flap

I'm going to guess it opens the fuel tank flap when the actuator dies or gets stuck..

Try removing your cargo cover. That was always a source of noise on my '06 Tit/S..
