Hey guys, can anyone tell me what the 'Blower Fan Relay' wire colours are [...*big ask* - if you were a really great bloke/gal ;), you might be able to pull the relay out and use a torch to see the colours]. Currently, the information I have is:

Pin 87 Black
Pin 85 Pink/Blue
Pin 86 Yellow/Black
Pin 30 Yellow

...but in my VY II Calais, this pink-blue wire does not exist, except for a fuse wire? Thanks in anticipation, cheers Dyr

No problem. Glad to help.
The orange wire on pin 85 is, the +12v feed to fire the relay.
This may help you.
The wire that is cut off at the top of the page, is colour coded K (pink) to number 33 fuse.
Good luck and let us know how you go.

Thanks Nut Kracker - Ok, I think i'm ridiculously close to nailing this thing.

Considering my other relay wire assumptions were incorrect, I'm figuring these three may be wrong as well:

Fuel Pump

Pin 1 Green/White
Pin 2 Violet
Pin 3 Orange
Pin 5 Black/White

Engine Cooling Fan 2

Pin 87 Black/Red
Pin 85 Pink/Black
Pin 86 Blue/White
Pin 30 Orange/Blue

Engine Cooling Fan 1

Pin 87 Black/Red
Pin 85 Orange/Black
Pin 86 Red [Eng. 12v Bus]
Pin 30 Blue/Yellow
Pin 87A Orange/Blue

* The fuel pump wires maybe correct colours, but pin numbers wrong?
* And, I have a feeling the engine cooling fan relay's Orange/Blue's may indeed meant to be Orange/Blacks [As there are no Orange/Blue wires whatsoever except for what's currently connected to the Horn Relay]?

What do you think mate? Thanks for all your support, cheers

Jeez, wouldn't you know it. They're about the only 3 relays I don't have a diagram for.
I've got them for VT/VX but not VY.
I did compare them with the VT/VX diagram and most of what you have are the same but I reckon you would
be asking for trouble if you wired them to the VT/VX specs.
Sorry I cant be of help on this one.

If you have any more, I will try and help you.

Bugger! Ok, i'll put that on hold for a little bit -- now for the last sets of fused wires?

Could you check the following image to see if what I have is correct so far?
Fuses.jpg


I also have left over Fuse Wires:

White/Black [assumed to be a Headlamp?]
White/Blue [assumed to be a Headlamp?]
Orange/Black [assumed to be Engine Control?]

Red [T-relax?]


Further to this,
**And considering I have 9 Fuses, im perplexed as to why i'm missing a Fuel Pump fuse wire...

**Along with the orange wire to the Engine Control Relay?...

Truly grateful for all your support mate, I really owe you big-time! thanks

Ok. For a start, all your fuse inputs seem to be all good.
Fuse outputs 23 to 35 all good.
White/Black is from fuse 31 to LH headlamp
White/Blue is from fuse 30 to RH headlamp.
The orange wire to the Engine Control Relay(pin 85) comes from pin 85 of the ignition relay, which in turn comes from the ignition position of the ignition switch. (Did ya get all that?)lol.

I will see how I go with the rest of it a bit later.

Legend! Thanks mate. I thought I'd update the image as we go, cause no doubt it may help someone in the future [...due to some messages I've received, I think i'll make up an image for the entire Fuse/Relay Box as well; surprised it's not available already].

With my recon, which has been wrong on several occasions, I think:

29] maybe Orange/Blue
28] maybe Orange

...though this doesn't work for me, as I only have a "Red" and "Orange/Black"?

Anyhow, customarily - thanks for all your efforts - very much appreciated, cheers
