Finally getting things buttoned up... I have a question about the AC compressor and fan relay circuit. All manual controls, no climatronic in the van or donor car. 2002 Eurovan that had 24v 2.8 VR6 and an 01p auto, and 2004 B5.5 Passat donor car with BHW.
In the Eurovan, there is a relay 140 that is the AC control module, and a 214 relay for the AC clutch cut-off relay. The 214 cut-off relay is only for automatics in my wiring diagram (I am doing a manual swap, so don't need that, right?) It looks like the Passat has a cut-off control module as well, the dreaded relay 384, but it looks like that relay controls both functions that requires the two relays in the Eurovan. The Eurovan relay is 8 pins, the Passat is 6 pins. I can't find a TDI specific wiring diagram from what I downloaded from Erwin, just a generic 2000s Passat and one from a 1.8t.
It looks like pin 1/87 (sw/gr) on the Passat relay goes to the engine control module through the red 15 pin connector on the firewall housing.
Also pin 4 (br/li) goes to the cluster?
I'm confusing myself looking at the wiring diagrams, and I was hoping for some help from others that have swapped this motor.
The fan control relays and resistors from the van are all still in place. I know the fans work, because I can jumper them and get them to stay on whenever the key is on.
The wire from the Passat for the AC clutch is a gn/ge (green/yellow), and the clutch grounds to the engine block.
Do I need the gr/ge wire and/or the Passat relay at all?
Can I use the van's circuit for all my AC needs? Or would it be better to swap the van's wiring over to my Passat AC relay?
Does the BHW ECU need any input from the AC relay and/or the fan control system?
How do I connect the BHW ECU and the Eurovan fan relays so that they are triggered to come on and shut off at appropriate times with the load reduction relays for starting, on for AC/when it's hot out, etc?
I think I'm making this more difficult, but with all the wires floating around and visions of wiring diagrams in my sleep I'm going a little nuts.
Any insight?
Thanks.
