Re: Programmer springs

[Leah Mueller <muellerl@cadvision.com>]

Did your old programmer have a silver tab connection sticking through the
black plastic box on the heat side?  If so, the spring on the programmer
was missing.  If not, the spring was a later add on to assist the return to
heat postion.  The armature on the old programers was white.  The black arm
indicates an upgraded motor on old programers when the spring was added. If
you find it works ok without the springs then all the power to you.
Otherwise the spings can be ordered seperately at about $1.00 or so apiece
from Audi.  I paid $1.50 Candian for mine when I lost the programer spring
on our early model 86 turbo.
