Default What is it?

I am hoping someone wouldent mind telling me what this is or even if it is cmp related.
It is GM marked but I cant really make out the numbers, I am guessing a filiter for radio suspression....?
I checked all my books that i have but it dont show up, it does have the rainbow of colours on the two screws that the cab and fenders had.

Default Too small....

Hi Jason

Your picture may have been resized too small and will not open large enough to se details...... would be nice to see 2 or 3 different views and dimensions.

Love those puzzles.

Bob

According to the C15A-04 parts list, part number 5823201 is a "FILTER ASSY., Coil to Ignition Switch (used with Wireless Body or Wireless Supression Option)". It is a later replacement for part number 5815597.

Default How does it work.....

Grant....any idea of how it is connected...... are we talking about the hot wire from the ignition dash switch to the two screw terminals on top of the coil.....? so it fits between the switch and the coil..... and on your cab 13 the coil was isolated inside a metal container.... am i correct..?

Hum !!!!

Bob

On the inside of the cowl frame between the doghouse and front clip. just below were the wires pass through from the dash to the engine compartment.
There should be 2 holes lining up with the mount.
On the other side of the frame from where your left foot would rest on the side.
That should be perfectly clear if we agree on what is the cowl and front clip and left foot.

Default Filter

If it is opened up it will have about 5 condensors in it. The Canadian UC had a very similar unit for the generator. The American Jeeps and Dodge all had filter units std from the factory.

Thumbs up

the Ford lynx had the same radio suppressor in it for the radio to keep down the noise. So it was used in most vehicles that had radios
