hi can any one confirm that this is the tune resistor. as it dont look the same as the one i found on utube today. it suppose to be located in the drivers side by the steering colume. can some one look at the picture to see if its the one or not. i put 2 pictures location and the resistor well i think it is as its red and there are blue white and green.

No idea what it is, but the connector looks well corroded.

Yes it is a tune resistor. Red being 180 ohm for Australia.
Green is UK without cats, I believe white is with, one day I have a look, and Yellow is for the Gulf which don't have cats either I believe.

So the question is Paul, why does you disco have a red tune resistor?

Is it because it's not in the UK but in Australia
