Default not really, but its pretty easy...you need to get a relay block...

and then populate the block with wire repair kits.

Default find the page with the ECU on it...

then find the pn for a single relay block.

then search the "additional wiring" section of etka for that block.

under the pn for that block, it will tell which wire repair kits will work for the block.

each wire repair kit is a foot long piece of wiring with two pins crimped on each end.

you cut the wire in half and it will populate two spots on the realy block. crimp the pigtails to what ever you are switching.

Default Does anyone know how to test a high speed fan relay?

My fan does not come on in traffic. I suspect the fan relay.

Default Did that already...

<a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/a4/msgs/2604666.phtml">See?</a>

Trying to keep everything nice and clean under the knee bolster as I add a switch and relay for my upcoming CarPC install.

Where would I attach an inline fuse? On the switch line or relay line?
