    Some one help me out. What the hell is this? Where is this located on my car? What happens if I don't get this?

    I have had my car less than a year and still figuring this thing out.

    It's an updated version of your RPM relay in your electrical compartment behind your passenger seat.

    Yours is probably green or blue and black.

    Mainly lurking, just passing through. Still enjoying reading about everyone's progress.

    What Mike said

    Used to power the fuel pump. Bad relay = no fuel.

    Did all you guys do this?

    "Please install a 3 amp fuse as shown in DMCtalk for the warm up regulator. A few of the warm up regulators (which get powered from the RPM relay) have short circuited. This caused one of my units to be returned for repair."

    The linky on the PDF was going to the old site. I guess if you don't engage the Hot Fix, then its not required?

    I'm waiting for mine in the mail.

    I guess looking at the attached pic, the wording facing up is the right orientation for the installation?

    I installed the fuse. You can just get a single socket from the auto store. Just ensure you fuse the right wire. Check the resistances that Dave touches on.
