Guest moo Posted June 13, 2007 (edited) sorry if this is in the wrong section. (new to site) I need help identifying a part. It is a aluminum cylinder 10cm long by 2 in diameter. with 3 wires comming of it. its was found behind the front bumper tie wraped on. reads "Roche et moreau Genevilliers. E1 " on the bottom. there is another component simmiler near the top of the rad just dangling with seemingly no place to go. this had a D1 on it. my best gues is a temp sensor for the automatic chock. the car is a 1991 1.9 gti. also the part is badly croded. where do i look for a new one what eva it is! thanx.

Baz 421 Posted June 13, 2007 Either the resistor for the fan, or for the headlights. Do away with it, they're rubbish! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil H 16 Posted June 13, 2007 turn the ignition and the parking lights on and if it gets red hot, it's the dim dip resistor ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Super Josh 4 Posted June 14, 2007 That has 3 wires on it, so it is the dim-dip resistor. The radiator fan resistor only has 2 wires Josh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
