Technical Another “ what the hell is this?”

Another trinket in my shit pile

 

Sure looks like a temp probe , or switch. For what?, No idea

 

I know what that is ... what the hell is that thing ??

 

Does the shaft push, pull, turn?
Some are scored like that so they can be cut to that length. Check it with an ohm meter, let us know what it measures. It looks like standard 1/4" spade terminals.

a really painful household electrical socket tester ?

 

A search on the number doesn't show anything. I'm going to say non automotive an maybe a temp probe.

 

It's what aliens use.

 

Whatever it is, it came from a Dodge....

 

My mind is certain it's a thermal switch. It appears to go in a dry well so it can be changed without draining fluid from the system. Grooves are likely to be for some sort of retainer. Probably not automotive, more likely HVAC.

 

The top from an Isomerizer

 

They used it on Cartman when the Alien's probed him.

 

It’s a damn Henway! Easy as pie!



Bones

 

It’s a gem locator !

 

Temp probe for electric fan control .Goes in radiator fins.

 

And they put it where the sun don't shine!

 

Temperature probe from a Ronco electric food dehydrator?

Or a whatsit from a dodge !

 

delux gizmo?

 

I bet it is a temperature control. It looks like those are temp ratings on the body. I would put a continuity tester between the connections and see if they open or close at those temp settings.

 

What does it smell like?[emoji38]

reminds me of a old soldering iron once had, or possible heating element for a old water heater?
Use it to keep your coffee warm?

 

I did just recently remove an electric fan from one of my old cars. I have no memory of that part but there are a lot of things I don’t remember. I think?

 

RV Radiator Probe. See if probe is removable?

With Thanksgiving coming up, stick it in your turkey and see if it works...

 

It smells like shame, like shame man.

 

Not an exact match, but I’m sure that’s what it is. THANKS

 

Thanks for the replies Gents I’m sure it’s from one of the several elect. Fans I’ve removed over the years

 

Maybe it fell off my Popiel pocket fisherman?

 

I do have a Chrysler powered Plymouth, is that close enough?

 

I bet if ya show it to burt , he will tell ya what it is!!! and show ya how to use it! on doug!!!

 

Thanks for putting that nasty picture in my head!
