I previously had 2 of "Electric RC Race Buggy Battery / Receiver Unit with Auxiliary
Output" and then I bought 2 of "Electric RC Race Buggy Battery / Receiver Unit
without Auxiliary Output". When I received them I found out they do have a working
auxiliary output hidden under 2x2 black tile which is already present in the
instruction in the set 8376.
I suspect they are the same parts, but one comes with a black tile, but perhaps
there might exist ones without the auxiliary output. I also did not see any difference
in the mold
Which looks doesn't have the extra connector showing but you are saying that
it comes new in the box with a tile already affixed?
Can you post a reply with some images comparing the ones you have?
Thanks,
Paul.
I bought a used 8376 as well as separate module without auxiliary output. They
both had the auxiliary output under a 2x2 tile, but since it wasn't new I
can't be sure if there exists one that actually doesn't have this output.
I tried to upload an image but I get an error.

I uploaded pictures to Imgur. I also added pictures from instructions which show
the output although I know this doesn't prove anything.

Thanks. From that angle it does seem like you have a point but like you say you
may just have 'with' versions with tile.
Leave it with us - I'll contact some sellers that have the 'without'
version and see if they can provide input on the output.
I presume all the examples you have are with the 3-channel switch underneath?
It also begs the question why if these are the same they have different numbers.
Both were added to the catalog by a previous admin. If you can find any part
numbering feel free to add it here (not the ugly looking melted in number on
the base though)

Yes, all of them have a 3-channel switch and I didn't find any other number.
Someone else provided a proof that 2 different modules do exist below my other
reply.
I do wonder if any of the 8376 sets had the hidden output and if not, why would
the previous owner of my modules put the tiles on both of them?

Also, if you take a closer look at the picture you provided as well as the bricklink
picture you can see tiny gaps between the square and the module. I feel that
section would be flat if the output was gone, but I'm not sure.

Not sure if ebay links are allowed here, but there is a new 8376 up for sale
right now, with good quality pictures and there is a visible square that looks
shiny compared to the rest of the module.

Thank you for this information. I wonder why did my modules both come with tiles
on the outputs. Perhaps someone placed them there and the seller didn't notice
it or he put them there himself? Is there a chance that some 8376 sets came
with a module like that?
