    Default Mystery connector quiz - PART 3!

    Not a connector this time chaps, it's a module from the e-box. I'm just wondering 'what does it do?' Winner gets a bag of nuts.

    Cheers,

    Shaun

    Have you tried sticking the part number of the module into realoem?

    the pin count on the bottom seems to match that of the "idle control unit", which is a black box found in the e-box.

    Would be a great help if you have a pic from the other side to read the maker, p/n and the other details on it.
    Or just write it down.

    Putting the part number in RealOEM was the first thing I did, before posting here. However the part number did not exist?! That module is out of an early M5. I thought it was the e-box fan controller but the idle control unit is more likely, as you all say.

    Cheers,

    Why dont you give us the part number instead of messing us about with pics of parts which according your ur profile if for a 520, now you say its an M5.

    Its clearly a bmw part, you can tell from the picture
