Received SCTX2 today. Instructions say to remove fuses for the cooling fan (#3) and fuel pump (#41). So... not wanting this experience to go bad on account of not following instructions, I go to pull said fuses. #41, it turns out is really hard to access, so I pulled micro relay #21 - fuel pump - in order to get my fingers around it. I really ought to have noted which way it was oriented because, as luck would have it, relay #21 can fit back into the box two different ways. Would someone please check out their fuse box and let me know which way it is oriented? It is in the middle row, closest to the rear of the car. If you are standing at the passenger fender, are the numbers right-side-up or up-side-down? (pic would be great, too) thanks in advance.

 

Pulling fuses and relays??!!?? wtf? That's not right.

 

I must have reflashed my car 50 times or more now, and I never pulled any fuses. But since you already did, is this any help?

Perfect. Thanks, Don. and wow, that was quick! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]

interesting, my number 30 is in the other way around and yet my fog lamps work properly. Maybe it doesn't matter that much(?).

I probably won't be pulling fuses again, I just wanted to be certain that if anything got mucked up this first time, it wouldn't be on account of me not follwing directions.

thanks again! I'm going for a Bama 91 torque drive now!

It must not matter, 'cause mine alternate up, down, up, down, up. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif[/img]

I don't pull fuses during a flash but the car has always been cold and I do make sure everthing electrical has been powered off. The fan fuse may be more of an issue when flashing a vehicle that is at operating temperature.
