Steve205 14 1 Cars Posted July 8, 2021 Good afternoon all. Before I ask, please forgive the stupidity. Was following wiring from front driving lights to find why they were not working. Turns out to be a faulty relay. Came across this behind passenger headlamp. What is it? It looks a bit corroded so wanted to know what it's for, in case it needs replacing. Thanks.

MrAndy 10 Posted July 8, 2021 I believe it is the thermal switch to control the radiator blower on/off. A Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richard309Sri XU5JA 205GTi 7 Posted July 8, 2021 I just double checked because I noticed exactly similar the other day in my 309(SRi) engine bay and wondered what it is I agree it's the dim dip resistor. It's right at the passenger side corner of the engine bay in the 309. The wires to it say RR and RJ. In the Haynes it shows such component in Diagram 2;309 H manual that is. Component 35 = dim dip resistor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
