The other 2 wires in that plug are the reverse light wires. Run those up to the switch on the top of the trans to get them working. Tim

Hi, where is this 3wire plug exactly to be found?

If i will Do i have to shortcut the other 2 wires to the 2pin plug on top of the gearbox or did i missunderstood something?

Hi @all

I just finished installing the 543 and threw the F****ing A604 away. I calculated 12 hours, but i used about 40, but finally, the gearbox is in and almost everything is connected. BUT: the car doesn't want to start.

The problems are:

- The P/N wire is chopped of, but i found the place, where i can lift the key out, so it should be in the position, where the car should be able to start.

- Almost all electrical stuff works (as soon as the battery has enough power left), also the lights work (i have an european model).

- The brake lights are always on! I tried to connect and disconnect all the electrical plugs but the brake lights were still on.

- AND: the car doesn't start, the starter is ok, imho everything should be ready, but turning the key (the lights are all on, as they should) nothing happens.

Does anybody know what i should do now?

THX

The Brake lights are fixed now, the switch on top of the pedal was not mounted properly.

I checked the engine, it turns, so why does it not run/start?
