[Vwdiesel] Where's terminal 30?

[gary]

I know my '80 Rabbit fuse panel is different, but terminal 30 will be
one of those six or seven big spade connections on the back of the
panel. On my panel they are labeled block 'H'. They will not be part of
any plug-in connector.

As far as that starter relay you mentioned, there isn't a starter relay.
Not shown or listed in the schematics. Is there more than just four
leads attached to this? It may be your glow plug relay. As this has a
term 50 going to it.

For the '84, you should have: Batt -> term 30(fuse block) -> term 30(ign
switch) -> term 50(ign switch) -> term 50(solenoid on starter)
