Electronic Rust Preventer?
Anybody ever used these or heard anything about them?The unit that keeps a very low electrical charge running through the vehicle to help prevent corrosion.
A load of malarky?Or any validity to the claims
My '91 Bronco is pretty much gone with rust(from all my beach buggying),but I do want to protect the '02 Super Crew I just got from the same fate.

I am not sure. I think it is a load of garbage. But, I have one on my 2002 Ford Focus (I think that's what it is). It came on the car when I bought it. And there is no rust on it yet!

Depends on the price I guess. I am going to do some research on the unit that is in my car. If I find out anything I will let you know. If I haven't responded to this thread by the end of the week send me a PM to remind me.

I went out to my car and had a look at the unit. It is a Corrosion Module 2000 (Final Coat Protected) module. It has 3 wires coming off of it. One to the positive battery cable, one to the negative battery cable and one is grounded to the frame.
It is supposed to make it so the vehicle doesn't rust. BUT, do a search on the net for the name of it and you will see that it supposedly doesn't work. I will maybe just leave mine on but am not sure.
