I think that's the backup lights wire. The FI connector just has 2 wires coming into it. I recommend that people work at the relay under the dash, because of the problem describing where to find the connector that Russ mentioned. Russ's method works perfectly fine, but it's often hard to point people at the right connector, plus the wires around that connector are often fragle because of long exposure to engine heat and they are easily damaged. I also occasionally see those connectors damaged or mis-connected, so I just prefer that people leave them alone. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
