Distribution Terminal +30:




Operation
The positive supply is taken from battery 1 directly to starter motor 4, and then further to B+ on alternator 2 and to distribution block 75.

From distribution block 75, supplies are then taken to the following components and to fuses 24 - 31.

- Ignition switch relay 21
- Timing service instrument socket 73
- Fuel pump relay 102, control unit 200 and main relay 229 for the LH fuel injection system on cars powered by the 16-valve engine. (On cars with the 8-valve fuel injection engine, fuel pump relay 102 is connected instead to fuse 30.)
- Lighting relay 8
- Light switch 10, across 29-pole red connector 152B
- Ignition switch 20, across 29-pole white connectorl52A.
- Fuses for the anti-lock brakes (ABS) 302 A.
- Fuses 310P and 310D for the passive seat belts on cars destined for the US market (1989 model)
- Fuse 290 (for the Convertible top)

On cars destined for the USA, Canada and Japan (1989 model), fuse 21 for the extra fog lamps is also connected to this distribution block.

Fault-tracing hints
1. Check the battery voltage.
2. Check the terminals of distribution block 75 and 29-pole connectors 152.
3. Check that the supply to each component is live.
4. Check the relevant wiring.
