I see this and cannot imagine what it is. It had a foam sort of wrap which of course disintegrated when I touched it. Maybe that is some type of filter? This apparatus sort of reminds me of the little ECU cooling fan in my 170.

what is this thing?? TIA, PFA, HMU

  • The black cylindrical component appears to be a cabin temperature sensor, which measures interior air temperature for the climate control system.
  • It is typically located under the dashboard, often near the steering column or glove box.
    • The green and brown wires attached to it are likely used to transmit sensor data to the car's computer.
    • If this part has detached, it may cause the automatic climate control to operate incorrectly.
