Can bus relay 487 location

[Franky89]

Hi all

 

I am wanting to get a canbus converter from 1.6 to 2.0

 

I have seen a relay 487 part number: 5J0 035 751.

 

I know they mainly used these in Fabia 2 and roomster.

 

There is a few local scrap yards near by so I'm hoping to have a look around there German section to see if there is any cars that has it fitted from factory.

 

Does anyone know if these relays came fitted with the car, also would the be located under the steering wheel or behind the head unit?

 

I've seen one from Czech which is quite pricy with the delivery so it would be ideal if I could just pop to a local breakers.

 

Thanks for any help

All the relays would be located up behind the dash panel on the drivers side in the relay carrier.

Did you find one I'm reluctant to shell out £80 for a new one

Sorry for the late response, the only one I've found is on the skoda-parts website that are around £80 and they post it from Czech, I don't know why these are so hard to find, I thought they'd be quite a few on eBay but I can't see any

That relay is for the navigations system? Tell me more.

It's not a relay it's just packaged like one.  It's a CAN converter. Bit more to it inside than a relay, I'd guess.

Yes the centre part number is the odd bit as a relay would be typically 951 and starting with a zero is accessories, infotainment, misc. Interesting.
