Well, the picture in the link I sent is real close to exactly what I'm looking at. I'm heading back under there to look again for a part number. |

Okay. I see now to what you are referring. I was looking at the copper strip. While the copper strip is most likely a bridge, you are asking not about that, but about the terminals under the strip I think. In that case, it does resemble one of the self-resetting breakers, but it is hard to tell for sure. A part number definitely would help.

Got under there again. It's a Short Stop 12v 30amp resetting breaker.
Think I'll be able to move my legs again in a couple days.. LOL |

The copper bridge confused me as well. Why? Two separate lines in to two separate lines out.. I'm certain there's a reasonable explanation out there somewhere..

I think one would have to trace the wires to see where they go to get a better idea of what they are protecting. Thanks for looking. I learned something. I had to put one of those in the engine compartment of the Escape when we installed the brake controller from the battery to the connector on the 12V power line. I just was not seeing your picture right and thought you were asking about the copper strip, not what was under them. My apologies for my confusion and causing you to get under there again. Hopefully, someone will be able to explain why the bridge is there.

Thanks for looking Olddawgsrule. I couldn't find a label, but maybe I didn't crawl under far enough. I agree with StephenH, the bridge is a mystery also.
