Hi all,

I am currently in the process of creating a diagram and document which will detail this crazy little device, and show the various internal components.

My goal is that all of us can open ours up, and diagnose it a bit... and replace some pieces and get it running again.

I have gotten some good info from the German lists here, but need of course all the help I can get.

If any of you have a defective part for me to dismantle it would certainly help (as you can only really read the numbers on hte transistors and diodes once they are removed).

What I would like is the part 251 907 393 D (but also in the meantime would settle for the A, B, or C versions too).

I will be glad to pay via PayPal or other means to cover shipping and a bit extra for the effort. You can ship the unit to my USA address and I will have it sent along to me here.

Once my diagram is ready, or has some substantial info in it, I will of course post it to the list, and on my website.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

RSF

Is it the valve or control unit your speaking about ? The valve is repairable if it is just sticking. If you do need the valve I have two good used ones. Pmail me for details. If it is the control unit behind the RH tail light. That's another story. I think <A HREF="http://www.vanagain.com/">Van-Again</A> has the best price on these. I'm currently trying to repair some defective ones I have here but no luck so far.

Cheers
