    Wifes car!
    Can anyone tell me where the fuse and relay for the compressor are located?
    Loads of web info on C5 and C6 models, but very little on C7, C5 and 6 are 40 amp fuses, so assuming C7 is the same? only 40 ampers I can find are one under light (rhd) switch and 4 in driver side boot compartment, all are good visually and checked with multimeter.

    She has stolen my car so need to get fixed asap

    Thank you in anticipation.

    Pic of relays/fuses under light switch, Im guessing here but relay 645 has standard spade contacts to me so possibly the compressor one, the relay 644 has very heavy duty spade contacts so again guessing here, maybe main power for dash/car etc?

    Air compressor relay and fuse sit in the right side boot cubby. If the relay and fuse are good then the compressor is goosed. Can be rebuilt if need be

    Thank you I did come across Andy on various searches, but the threads always seemed to concentrate on the C5/6 model so I did not pursue it.

    Right fixed it and best of all it cost nowt apart from my time.
    I removed the compressor and when on the bench went to fire it up from my spare battery when I found the wiring and the connector had already been repaired before, sadly the connector and the new bit of wire wire were half the size of the original wiring and it had burnt out the connector, plus they had not heat shrunk one end of the yellow crimp!

    So as she needs the car it was out with some heavy wire and yellow heatshrink connectors amd voila one working compressor with suspension that raises and lowers nicely.
    Going to get some heavy connectors and do it properly when shes back.
    Pics hopefully to help someone else out in the future.
