Idle switch

[Valerian 0]

I've not long bought a Corrado as a project.

 

It's not running right and i'm unable to set the timing.

 

I've just found that all three wires that should be connected to the idle switch connector are disconnected.

Does anyone have any idea which wire should be connected to each of the terminals 1 to 3?

1.8 16 valve 1991

 

Also need to know how you are suppose to slacken the power steering pump so you can change the drive belt.

from memory..... i think the power steering belt is the the same one that runs the alternator if so slacken of the alternator adjustment bolt then should be a straight foward swap. i'll have a look at the order of the three wires for the idle stabiliser valve for you tonight mate.

Bobby, it's the switch on the Throttle body not the ISV.

Bobby .....the power steering belt also drives the water pump.

The alternator is driven by the inner belt.....i had no probs loosening that.

The terminals on the connector ar marked 1 to 3.

 

I have the three following colours of wires:-

 

Black

Black/Yellow

Blue (light blue maybe)

 

Can anyone tell me which wire goes to which terminal please?

Blue, black, yellow black counting from the bottom. I hope they don't move about inside the boot....

 

Vac pipe too. The one nearest the bulkhead goes to the airbox. The other is split a couple of times, one goes into the clocks and I can see another goes to some valve on the inner wing.
