Brown ignition wire with diode attached

duly

Member
Looked in my service manual trying to figure out what this is and if it should be there. Looks like some sort of diode/resistor. It comes from the fuse box to the key ignition switch. So what is this and should it be there?

Its a Clamping Diode.
I do believe.

What Are you working on ?
Make, model year, & car or truck sub model ?
 
Ok.

Quite a Few New Guys here now within the last few days.
 
I really want this car to be near perfect so I ask questions in numerous places. On a Camaro forum (Team Camaro) it was suggested the diode is for my RS headlights. So I will leave it for now. If these forums were not around there is no way I could keep my old iron going.

Thank you
