 Re: Whats with the dim dip Paul, the only logical conclusion, since Citroen _never_ got anything wrong...  ken ( I'd best go in to hiding for a while, as the fundamentalists will be after my blood.
Might be able to fight them off for while with chunks of rusty chassis, broken fan pulleys, worn-out track rod levers and other bits of junk as ammunition...  ) 602 wrote: I blame Volvo for it.

Do I need to just remove it and tape up the empty connectors?? or join them together??? just leave it doing the jumper thing effectivley bypasses it, it also leaves a ignition on 12v supply if you trace the wire- usefull for radios and the like

Re: Whats with the dim dip They both need removing. You bridge the one with the same plug as in the posted picture above.

Re: Whats with the dim dip one plug has 5 wires the other only four ....you bridge the one that has 5 wires and remove both relays
if you look very closely the terminals are marked with tiny numerals - its 1 and 5
