Does anyone know what this is?

Hi there,

Does anyone know what this is? Its mounted on the frame on the outside of the radiator. It's more on the drivers side and there is only one of them. Thanks.

Hi there,

Well, i am pretty sure its OEM. I have looked at two other Tahoes in a salvage yard - both of them had it. I zipped tied it because it was just dangling when I got the truck from the GSA auction ;-) as the mounting peg was broken off.

I took a picture of one of the ones in the yard ... I'll post that one as well.

Here is one from the previously mentioned salvage yard. I think this was from a 2004.

Weird. I dont know what it would do. Maybe a temp sensor?

Temp sensor for the temp display on the rear view mirror.

I would have to agree with Omar. I'm having an issue with mine.

Definitely temp sensor, not sure why it's zip-tied

He said he zip tied it bc it was dangling.
