Hello guys,

Can somebody tell me how to wire the original capacitor on the coilpack? Is one of the pins + and one - or is both + and is the bracket the ground of it?

Maybe its indicated on the capacitor itself, but i don't have my car at my house (45 min drive) so i want to prepare myself. I am talking about this one

Its just a suppressor. Really not needed

Earlier on here somebody told me its needed. Also on the msextra website they have a layout with capacitor

Thanks for the reply i found that one but does that mean the top pin is +12v feed or ground. At the moment i think +12v feed and the bracket is ground. If so it doesn't matter if top or bottom pin goes to the 12v of the coil but one should be 12v feed and other to coil.

So then this photo makes no sense...

The 12v that feeds the middle pin of the coil connects to the suppressor, the suppressor earths through the coil pack bracket.

I can double check on my car when I have it out the garage over the weekend.

Then it would be like the photo says indeed, but I would be surprised if it has two pins and only one of them is use. However ofcourse it is possible!

Thanks if you can check it for me
