Hi Steve

I'd like to try to help but I really don't understand what you're trying to do here - maybe if you could give some more information. Is this a remotely activated alarm system, remote device for disabling/tracking the car if stolen, some form of remote monitoring or central locking? Can you tell us what the wire you've asked about is supposed to do? Also, what model/year/gearbox - the mk1 and mk2 tdi's are very different engines electronically speaking as I understand it though I'm no expert.

The image looks like it is pointing towards coiling the wire from the ?alarm? around the coil ht lead. Maybe it can sense the engine is running from the pulses picked up by induction. On a Diesel you have no chance of replicating this, there simply just isn't an ht circuit.

I agree, that's how I would interpret the schematic too.

yes looks that way to me also

perhaps you could find a signal from the speed sensor system you might have to build a little amplifier to

or speak to the manufacturer sure theyve had this befor
