Electrical burning smell and smoke in passenger footwell
#1
Today in the way to work got a burning smell and smoke in the passenger footwell.

I was at some lights when it happened and when I saw the smoke I turn the engine off and disconnected the battery. Pushed the car to the kurb out the way and started looking for what it could be.

First thoughts were the two connectors under the glove box, split them checked the pins all looked good.

Then checked the connector on the fan, all looked good.

Not sure what else to check at the moment.

It's a phase 3 HDI so no resistor in the fan and the smoke was only in the passenger footwell. Going to have a good look down the back of the radio tonight.

What else could it be down there?
