Wasn't it something to do with the heaters like a probe

If you look right at the back of the foot well, you will see a small hole it goes into. You will need to straighten it up though as its bent.
It's a temperature probe for your "climate control"

something like that, i know it wasnt anything essential but an added option...
iirc, it was put down to "Is everything still working, if so, dont worry.."

How does the climate control work or what does it do?

Means you can make it rain or snow, or anything like that really. Or at least that's what it should do, what it actually means once you've removed the marketing bs, is "blowers" lol.

this, apart from it keeps the cabin at a constant temp, your temp dial will have *C round the edge of it IIRC 
But yeah, I remember that thread, it was, as said already, a probe for the climate control from a duct in the drivers footwell.

I will straighten it up then put the probe sensor in the hole.

I have had this on all my cars, I was sure i read that the sensor for climate control was in the console on the roof but might be wrong.

This is the sensor for the air temp in the ducting coming out of the vents IIRC
