RichardC 124 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 I found this thing flapping in the breeze, hanging by its wire, on my Evora 400. Some kind of sensor? What is it and where does it belong? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
agentdr8 148 Posted November 6, 2020 Report Share Posted November 6, 2020 Based on the bracket, it looks like a condenser (A132E6376S). #33. There should be one per bank. Here's a picture of mine on bank 2. Looks like the bolt probably came loose and that's why yours is flapping around. From what I found, they're noise filtering capacitors (250V, 2.2 uF) to help reduce ignition noise and/or alternator whine that is sometimes picked up by the radio/headunit. Also mentioned in the wiring diagrams as front and rear noise filters: 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RichardC 124 Posted November 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2020 Thanks. I'd never have guessed it was an interference suppression capacitor. I don't think that I've got much chance of re-attaching it where it is supposed go onto the front camshaft cover, as the supercharger is in the way: I can only just get a finger to feel the bolt hole, let alone get any tools into the gap. Luckily there's a nearby wiring-loom bracket bolted to the supercharger body, so I think that I'll have to re-attach the capacitor there instead. I've measured the electrical resistance between the supercharger body and the camshaft cover and it's less than 1 ohm, so I'm thinking it should still work alright. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
