I hope there is a nice big heavy battery pack in the front to correct the weight balance. As the owner of a Panamera 4 e-Hybrid, I know how much the weight (over 200kg) of the battery pack behind the...

It will be interesting as and when the Üro relay fails and I take it apart, to see if the diode has been omitted and that is what the problem is. I would not be totally surprised.

Hi Dennis,

I fear neither of those are suitable. They are dual input and single pole control. What I need is a single input but dual pole changeover output i.e two input terminals and three...

If I replace the relay with a solid state one, there should not be any requirement for a diode as there is no arc burn on a solid state relay, so no spike to affect the ECU/DEM. My 911 has a rev...

I have found a wiring diagram for the relay. I would intend to fit a Hella solid sate 22A 12V relay in the place of the original electromechanical relay.
