Anybody know what that is ?
10 Oct 2022 10:20
Hi,
Anybody knows what that could be ? Can't find it on my wiring diagram. It is from a KZ400 H3 and it was attached to the transistor ignition bracket.
Cheers,

Looks like a ballast resistor. It evens out the current through the circuit by increasing resistance as the voltage increases and reduces resistance as volt drops.
Normally only fitted with aftermarket electronic tachos.
All though that one is not connected to anything with both ends connected to each other.

I feel like an idiot, it was right under my nose but the diagram I had was in really bad resolution.I found another diagram (attached below) and it is actually a specificity of the French model (I live in France).It is connected to the dimmer switch.Do you think it is important or was it just added to fall under some law regarding the intensity of the dimmed light ?Thank you anyways for your replies

I think it's on air suspension, aka "bags". They are deflated when the car is shut off, putting it on the ground as you see in the pic. It probably is not driven that way.
Unless the owner is a "stance nation boi".
