Thank you.
What I called a "wheel switch" I think is a rheostat of some kind. I did not know what to call it. How can I find what options this car has? |

Well it seems as if I have no power when the ignition switch is turned once. I think this should provide power to retract the arms. Nothing else works in a acc mode. Anybody know what wire provides t ... |

I would like to replace the seal on the sunroof of my 1987 924s. The roof tilts up and retracts just fine but the rear arms will not retract for removal. As I understand the process it should happen w ... |

It is located in the lower portion of the tach and is an up arrow. I felt this may be the check engine light. Maybe not? |

When I got the car the fuel pump was not working and I replaced it. I tried to get by with the least expense one I could find. Sounds like I should have got the better one. You get what you pay for. |

Now I have checked and do have continuity from pin 20 in the DME connector to terminal 85b at the relay. So it seems as if the DME is not providing the ground. |

Thank you for making me look again at the drawing. I do have power on terminal 87 but not 87b. When I test for ground at 85b, there is none. So either the DME is not providing the ground or it is not ... |
