Scania Electrical Question

I have been fitting some LEDs to my Scania R Series today,in the name board light (above the visor).

There is a small white rectangular connector about 2 to 3 inches long , it has wire going into each end and the middle of it is filled with what looks like copper…i think it must be some sort of resistor.

Being a clumsy [zb] Ive managed to snap the wire off going into it. :blush: :blush:

The lights still work OK if I bypass it but Im not sure if I may do damage to the circuit without it being connected.

Any advice would be much appreciated

if it needs stars, it ain’t allowed :wink: …colingl
