Well, on my '95 90 it is not as obvious. There is no relay labeled 
'Servotronic', I did find a fuse however, but it is also the fuse for a 
number of other needed functions. My Bentley says the unit is under the rear 
seat, but when I removed the seat it did not look anything at all like the 
Bentley diagram.
I would like to disconnect the damn thing.
