The mystery of the electrical thing with the springs?

I may be a little late in the game here, but I have to agree with Merc. Heck, the fan motor resistor on old jeeps was just a couple of springs housed in a small plastic casing. Have you followed the wires back yet? I can't think of anyting other than the heater fan or the wiper motors that you'd want to apply this to on a series.

There sure are better ways to get a two speed fan or wiper!! Preferably one without a toaster coil attached to one end. Please let us know what some great grandson of the Prince of Darkness has done to your Landy!!

Again, thanks for the information. Just to confirm, then, its not a flux capacitor.

Well, even if it is a flux capacitor, good luck getting it to 88mph!
