Hello, I just noticed that my engine wiring harness is defective, I think the failure is due to the room I posted the photo. Could someone tell me what is this piece? I can not find it on the diagram of my manual, thank you in advance. I remember that I have a 1979 Dodge B200 and wonder if the wiring on my vehicle is original?

Wow that is in bad shape. The part is an Electronic Voltage Regulator.

Close. That is an EGR timer, not a voltage regulator. Can't buy them new. That thing is toast.


Windows- they're what make a van worth owning!

Thank you, now I know its usefulness. Do you think it's mandatory to give one? Does that prevent me from starting the van if it is not connected?

Mine Melted an was glowing red hot . Pulled it off an tossed it on the driveway. Boy did it smoke.
Oh ya it's a timer. mine said 90 on it. So I assumed it operated for 90 seconds.
I tried to replace it but could never find one. I been running my van 3 years without one.
I always wondered if made the van hard to start without it or it it had anything to do with it.

It does not seem as tho not having this egr timer would make any difference in starting the engine. Can someone confirm that this is correct.

Hello, I managed to find one on the net, I have to repair the beam before reassembling it and I will tell you if it works, apparently there are several timer (35s - 60s - 90s) I bought a 90s because I couldn’t read what was written on it. Thank you all for your answers
