Let me know if there is something else you are looking for.

Default Well, I used echo-location! ;-)

I just pulled the unknown relays and found the right one by trial and error (and by trying to locate the source of the clicking sound). The one with the number 204 in the middle row is the load reduction relay for the high beam flasher, which I wanted to find. The relay with 372 on it is the fuel pump relay, the Bosch relay that says 250 is the programmable aftermarket variable wiper relay that I installed 10 years ago.

Thanks for the schematic anyway!

Default No problem! Glad you found it.

I'd like to finally do that wiper upgrade. Do you know how much that goes for nowadays and what's all involved in the install?

IIRC, you set the time by turning the wipers on to the intermittent position, then turning them off and that time is the delay when you turn them back on?

Default It's a simple relay swap

I bought the programmable Bosch relay ten years ago. Before then I had one on my old VW Scirocco, but it was a VDO relay. I've never seen them in the US, but according to the linked write-up in KMHPaladin's post, you can get from the dealer. I would miss having this feature.

Didn't know the relay could be found at the dealer!
