Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

Thanks guys, especially Gav who spent a lot of time on the phone with me and Jmac who discovered the actual wire (after a fair bit of time checking out circuit diagrams - he is the wiring guru, will have to get this guy to chip it later).
Also to Steve who offered me the chance to try his computer and check out his cars if need be.
What a great forum
stand by for more pics and updates...
i know this thread abit old but this thread is the closest i could fine to my problem.
now i have a 2002 bora/jetta. which was a 1.6 16v bcb engine,
but i've now put a 1.8t auq from a seat cupra. same as a golf i believe.
anyway im now stuck on this fuel pump relay wire in the plenum chamber.
could you please let me know which wire or 2 this are please? and being the seat is a late 2000 model would i need to change a wire?
and also noticed an extra wire on the bora's original 1.6 loom in the plenum chamber?
please help someone
