This will allow it to move downwards into the intermittent position. - Add an extra wire (missing from the loom) from the switch to the relay. - Done! 8-) I can't remember where the extra wire went to, other than to somewhere on the relay. Mr. Haynes should be able to tell you ... Pete C -- Pete Cassidy, pcassidy@apple.com Sacramento, CA, USA http://www.iol.ie/~pcassidy '88 Wolfsburg "Muriel" *not speaking for Apple* |
