whats this for?
« on: 02 July 2012, 17:28 »
just been looking around at some of my electrics in my gti 8v and noticed this relay thingy hidden behind one of the blanks in the front of the dash. The blank slides out, but was just wondering what it was for?
also, it sounds a stupid question and i should know but what does the switch on the right indicator arm (mfa) one, cant work it out. the switch that has 0 1 2 0 on it?

That's the diagnostic port.

The 0 1 2 0 are the settings for the MFA display's memorys.
