Hi all,

Just in the boot removing fuse 22, and I notice it doesn't have a relay in position 5. This anything to be concerned about?

According to diagram relay 5 is a spare, no need to worry.

Cheers

If I remember correctly, that empty relay slot has been used by people selling the remove fuse activation system.

Essentially you get a little key fob and a kit which is installed into that spare relay slot. The end result is that you can remotely activate the exhaust valves to be open or closed from the fob. I installed this into my 06 V8V it's a fabulous idea.

From memory it was about £65.

As above, the remote is perfect.
The switch gives you "open all the time" mode or "normal operation" mode.
There doesn't appear to be a "mute" mode.

I find that after the ignition has been off, it reverts back to "normal mode".

Fuse 5 socket is used as a power source for the circuit.
