What are These ??

Came across these items yesterday......one of the round items appears to be a jack pad, don't know what the other is. And what is the two headed snake looking item I found in the refrigerator compartment ? And of course the fourth item is a glass of scotch that needs more ice !

That wiring looks pretty funky, maybe it was re-wired at one time and the "snake" left in? Nice glass, by the way.

It looks like some sort of tester for the frig as there is a male plug in that same compartment that attaches to the object in question. It also says 120v on it.

Wink

Is that a wooden handle on it? Never seen one quite like it, could it be the elec heating element for the reefer?

I always used butane...

The square item looks like a pad to go under the front jack on the trailer.

At first I thought it was an anode for the water heater until I found the place it is designed to plug in to. (in refer compartment) The long cylindrical part feels like it is brass or copper. Haven't had a chance to ask the guy I bought it from but I'm sure he knows.

Yup, I agree...and the round one looks like a stabilizer pad that is not attached to the stabilizer arm.

Clyde-2 The round and square plates were used to place on soft ground under the hitch jack post to prevent the jack post from sinking into the ground. The circles in the plates were used to prevent a caster wheel from rolling from side to side if used on the bottom of the jack post. The brass object with the three wires on top appears to be an electrical heating element used to heat the refrigerat on 110volt mode of the gas/elect refrig. The glass of scotch should kkep the mice happy. CharlieE
