Couldn't remember reuvers, was going to see what he said if it rang bells i would have answered it.

As above check through the guides and make sure everything is done properly,

Put some pictures up of what you have done if you can, be helpful.

See should use the ones that are proven to work, think it was a thread by myki 10w is the ones you want.

Away to search,

Have you binned the sai think you have to do this if you do the full bypass with resistors.

Thought they had to be done parrallel anyway...? Although they look the same in the pictures could just be you have a dud one or somthing but if you have no eml on put some pictures up of how you done things will be best way.

parrallel how? just snip off the plug and strip both wires of their shell and twist that around the ends of the resistor. then insulate and you're done.

if you didn;t remove sai its not a problem, you'll merely get a intermittend code sometimes. 16795 (had it again today)



can;t believe i'm interacting in yet another n249 bypass thread....

I know don't know why i am

Its friday and in a good mood, Searching is the way forward.

Jays problem hasn't come up before because he used the wrong resistors though,

Dutch man you are the bypass king. Have you not removed the Sai?

nope. never really bothered. Only reason I would is to remove those plastic pipes up front above rad. Although someone told me the other day, that I can remove them now as well because I have blocked off the SAI. But not sure about that?

guess I've always had other things which I prioritized.

one day ;)

Thats the main reason i removed it was to get rid of all the junk of pipes if you have blocked it off remove it and solder in a resistor

Pidge off here did mine well worth it for cleaning up the bay.
