Another question. The fuel pump and relay pump should be audible every time I turn the key to ignition position?

Hi, I'm still working on fix that. I've done a couple of electrical checks, following Bentley manual. I followed the Fuel Pump Checking and Fuel Pump Relay, Checking instructions. Fuel Pump Checking The fuel pump works when you directly give power with wires from fuel pump relay socket #4 to + and I can able to run the engine without any troubles with that wire connected. Bentley says to replace the relay. But is new. I don't think it is the issue (I checked the relay out of the car and the coil was acting properly). But with the ignition key, despite I can hear the fuel pump at first turn to ON position, it cannot turn engine ON. Questions related to that test · What it means manual when it says "If NO or only one pump runs". Where is the other pump? It can be the reason? I can listen the fuel pump and run the engine. So I don't know. Fuel Pump Relay, Checking ·Tester from 6 to ground it's OK ·Tester from 2 to ground it's OK ·Tester from 6 to 4 it's OK Also, I've done the other tests: But the LED never lights up. @fendervg What relay is that from ECU? How can I check? Apart from this, my Corrado has an alarm installation (Gemini 2255) made, but supposedly bypassed because there is a brown wire not connected to ground, which if it is connected, it works (doors close, red led lights up and off...). I assume that it is not preventing the pump from working because that brown wire is bypassed, but it is something I have to check and it is going to take many many hours. So, I would like to do some more check beforehand that you can think of. Thanks.

Thank you @1xshaunx1. I managed to solve the issue with the help of a friend. So the problems with the fuel pump and fuel pipes are not over, yet. So pulling out the relay and making a wire to connect 87 with 30 directly, the fuel pump received power and I drove the car to the garage where I will check, step by step, what is the mess here. Never Ending Story, the Corrados, I guess...

I forgot: The fuel pump, flange and fuel leveler, all of them was replaced. Only the fuel pump is not OEM. The fuel pump relay from Hella is this: 4RP 008 189-15

How are you guys. I came again to the forum because I just had few moments ago the same problem that make my Corrado stay at parking for months. We came from here: https://the-corrado.net/topic/86777-fuel-pump-relay-buy-vw-original-or-hella/?tab=comments#comment-1030442 So, today I tried to go out with my G60, because I need to test how it works outside. But at the very first climb in my town, the engine stops suddenly and never starts again. Every try came with the electrical noise, caused/origin by the fuel pump relay, which was replaced not too long ago. I tried to pull out other relays and try to run, but did not work. I tried without the fuel pump relay: no noise, but either run (obviously). At this point I really don't know how to continue. I really need help to solve that issue, or maybe I need to really start thinking about selling my Corrado, because is so depressing this situation. I'm not an electrical expert, so is very confusing for me. If this helps, the steps I made to arrive here are: 1) Fuel pump fails. It was replaced by another that is, theorically, 100% valid for that car: If I'm not wrong, was this pump: https://www.ebay.es/itm/143893332324?hash=item2180b60164:g:NdEAAOSwPCBgZIPt 2) After replacement and fuel fillment, the electrical noise came in to the game, and after few tries, all the gauges was gone. 3) All gauges are replaced. The electrical noise continues. 4) Fuel pump relay replaced by new one from Hella. The electrical noise keeps, but with a fuel tank fillment, the noise disappears. 5) Today, the problem repeats. The fuel tank are at 1/2 capacity or more. If anyone can and like to help me, I can give it my phone number to establish a permanent contact. Thanks and regards.

Hi again guys. Just found in my "collection" this mirror. I can't remember from what car or who sold to me, but maybe it is a good option to mount it? What do you think. Sure is not the finest and clean option, but it's "free".

My problem is I have two colors I think... Not sure if one of them it's original or what.

Hi, I like to complete the interior of my G60, which I start years ago to change enterily to beige color. I have trim doors, seats and other stuff, but in case of seats and trim doors I like to change it or repair it. What I didn't know is there are two tones of beige, so I don't know what to do, because I think I jave two colors... Is code YU clear and VG darker? The interior had one code color or we can find both?

Yes, it was lowered at the front with the car stock suspension. I don't know how they did it, I just give the suspensions when I was working in a workshop to my boss and later next day they both I saw they was shortened/lowered and 'hardered'. I think they change some parts of the suspension, I don't know. But the car was gain a lot of feeling and precision. In any case, 205x45x15 is too expensive size but I will like to mount it, I think they gain better look in general to the car.

Hi, I need to change the 2005 Pirelli P6000 on my G60 (lol) and I ask myself if a 205x45x15 tyres will look and grip better but if they fit on Sebring wheels without problems.

Relay is replaced for new one from Hella (15euros). The relay makes more louder sound when you turn ignition key to ON. The ugly electrical noise didn't come again, but I cannot be sure if is because the new relay or because I fill the tank with 20L before. Later I will check the old relay, but it seems it is not working correctly.

Its a good idea

They don't have it either. NK-Auto knows very well the gem they have 😅 First maybe we need to know shipping cost to Barcelona and maybe it's too expensive to make you a good offer. Well, next week I will go to many scrapyards I can. 🤞

Windscreen shipping should cost too much to Barcelona. Sure I can find someone around here. Thanks. Yes, I will. Thanks.

Do you know if that place have one? (Mirror with stkcker, sticker or windscreen with the sticker) Yes sure, any help will be welcome. Thank you guys. P.S. yes i saw the nk-automotive part at 50e. GL with it. In Spain is not mandatory the interior mirror if you had two outside. Only I like to have fine my Corrado

Still searching... I have contacted several sites and people. Not lucky at all (someone had windscreen, too expensive with shipping). So, if someone like to make a profitable deal... Next week hopefully we can go free without restrictions anywhere and I can visit some scrapyard.

VWClassic had it? F*ck... Do you sell it?

The preivous owner said to me it felt down by hand stroke. I never check if appears VW logo at windscreen. In any case if my only chance is to buy the "holder" for 50e... 🤷‍♂️ That's a good idea, because the difference of buying the holder/bracket and a used windscreen is not too big to discard the option of buying one, extract it from it (if it's easy to do, I don't know) and install to my windscreen and save the other windscreen for whatever. Where is that FB group? I cannot write posts in others section yet. Thank you guys.

Do you mean, of another car, like Golf 3 or something? Because I don't know if I can find a Corrado in a scrapyard in this days, but this is a thing that I did a lot in the past and I found even a four BBS RM (which I sold, 🤦‍♂️) and right now here we are in weekends lockdowns until the curve goes down again.

Well, the car haven't insurance right now and I think my windscreen is in good conditions (maybe it's the original, I don't know). Do you know if any other VW shares the bracket, or maybe I can use another from Golf MKIII ? I search in ETKA and in VWClassic, but I think they are very different 🙁 I will call to my dealer later today... Who knows... Thanks Keyo. Regards

Thanks. I didn't search correctly at ETKA... And how is it mounted on windscreen? Some kind of glue? Or the bracket cames with a sticker or something?

My Corrado never wear a rear view mirror because I was always at first place in the road, so far from the others, so I never need it Ok, joking. I bought years ago a mirror, but I didn't know how to mounted, so now I will like to do it, but I don't know if it use some kind glue and works or I need a support or something. Thanks and regards

Thanks. I will try to test the relay (I don't know how, I will google it) and maybe buy the Hella, because is cheap.

At first video you see old relay reference, 191 906 383, which was replaced by 191 906 383 C. Maybe because the first one fails?

And after replace the cluster gauge:
