[Newjin]

Ya this just fell out the side of the reciever not sure what it for seeing if anyone can identify this
Thanks everyone in advanced

Don't know what they are called but they just hold wires in place. They sorta act like a zip tie to keep wires together. You just bend it over wires to keep them in place.

It has absolutely no bearing in the operation of the unit.

No expert but couldn't it also have been a chassis ground connection? It's also an indication that you've got at least one screw out, probably others are loose.

that piece is for holding wires neatly . now find the loose screw before it does any damage

Unless it held a power rail wire from contacting a heatsink.

Look for exposed wires looking for their lug and heat shrink and connect them back to the chassis ground.
