VR6 South 0 Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah that pic is taken with the fusebox dropped forward but you should be able to do it with it in place with a torch I reckon... I take it your loom was cut then if you don't have the plugs?? Yes, I had two looms which are spliced together the only thing missing is those two small plugs. It's a good job I managed to get hold of some s/h relays as thet are over £40 each :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A1 VR6 0 Posted March 22, 2007 Think those plugs may have been added as an alternative solution Steve as I'm pretty sure that one of the wires is hard-connected to pin 12 plug D which is accessories as it comes from the factory. But hey if this works well done. Can these plugs be sourced from anywhere or are they just female spade connecter type? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 South 0 Posted March 22, 2007 I have a pic of a complete loom which shows the two plugs as standard so, it should be plug in and play. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are these plugs available from stealers and are they just female spade connecters? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted March 22, 2007 That you sorted then Martin?? apologies by the way, i couldnt post the pics of that storm as the forum wouldnt recognice the format......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 22, 2007 Bill - yeah they are female spades but best to get the proper plugs from VAG so they clip in propery... got a pic of the loom somewhere, mine came out of a Storm but Yan was also under the impression that they hardwired in so that may have been the case on the early cars where just the drivers side was headed.

Supercharged 2 Posted March 22, 2007 Can't find a photo but ETKA shows it quite clearly... ignore the earths, mine only has one near the relay plate as shown above... Looms comes in two parts and both together are well over £100 and thats without relays... (!!) the thing I like about VW is that repair parts are nice and cheap, relay plate is £4 and those 1 pin plugs are 357 972 761 - 55p each. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 South 0 Posted March 22, 2007 No problem I'm in no rush due to the Polo being trashed! PM on the way Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 22, 2007 A1 VR6, you'd think but not according to ETOS... I think in terms of repair they are physically the same so probably just come in black Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 South 0 Posted March 22, 2007 The plug from the blk wire is blk and the one for the blue/gray one is grey to keep the OE look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 South 0 Posted March 23, 2007 Recived the photos but cannot post them as they are Bitmaps and not Jpegs. Thanks for trying. Just been to the scrappies to get the elusive mssing plugs. Five VW's later and I can't find any to match! I did buy a set of alloys though :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VR6 South 0 Posted March 23, 2007 BBS 15" split rims (RX2's) three with nearly new tyres all need a bit of polishing to the outer rim but for £80 I'm not complaining! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
