Alright, I have a 92 tsi. Im attempting to do a battery relocation to the trunk/hatch, and im running into some questions and problems.

I used 4 gauge wirefrom the battery to the engine bay and a distribution block to divide the power to other components.

Problem: I no longer have power... everything was working judt fine and then nothing.

any ideas on how i can fix it or recomendations?
THANKS

You missed one of the power wires or you didn't ground the battery/harness properly. Give me a call or cruise by the house and take a look at mine tonight. I can give you a small bit and some little countersunk screws if you want to mount the distribution block. Lemme know!

That is a good question, i started dvom connections and checking all fuses. there was a relay that had a consistant ticking but by the time i got to it, it was dying out. I might have to start all over again... i think i mounted the distribution block a little too low, or if i can think of a way to protect it from the elements.

If I'm not at work I'm just sitting at home in my little cage. Come by, I'm sure I'll be there.
