Dim dip lighting system on spi

Post by speedy »

Hi folks,

Hope somebody can help me out...
Basically my new battery has been drained,
I traced it back to the dim/dip relay(pink relay behind dash).
The drain stops when I remove the relay or the fuse that powers it!

Is this relay of any use, everything still works when it's removed,
well I think it does!
Will I remove the relax, take out the fuse? Or do i need to short anything at the relay??

Save me from trying to order one in!

Cheers

You don't need this feature. It was an attempt by BL to bring in a feature ahead of a regulation that never happened.
Either remove the relay, or just cut the Green wire (and tape up the remaining feed end) that feeds it. If it were me I would cut the wire , this will isolate the relay completely.
