1989 VW Cabriolet electrical question   Printable Version Volkswagen Forum >> GENERAL Volkswagen Forums >> General Tech >> 1989 VW Cabriolet electrical question Page: [1] Login Message << Older Topic   Newer Topic >> 1989 VW Cabriolet electrical question - 6/25/2008 11:26:08 AM    bluestarcabby   Posts: 2 Joined: 6/25/2008 Status: offline Hi wondering if anyone can answer a couple of questions about relays and fuse/relay panel The previous owner had "jumped" the red/yellow wires that go to the lambda relay ( from the back of the relay panel) It looks like maybe cause the lambda relay should have five pins maybe that is why it would be jumped? I replaced the lambda relay with a new one. The old one had four pins. The new one has four pins. But now I see there is another lambda relay that has five pins... The car starts but surges. The frequency valve buzzes off and on-when buzzing car is idling great-when it stops buzzing car surges. If you pull on the throttle switch it idles great. Maybe the frequency valve is going? If so has anyone with an old car like mine ever replaced one?? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! thanks, Jo Post #: 1 Login OR Register now to post a reply to this forum topic.
