hey guys, well i hid all my wires recently and my motor is on its last leg so i just pulled it this weekend and trying to clean up the bay again. i have this relay or whatever is mounted next to the headlight, so i took it off and just stuffed it under the headlight to hide it. what im wondering is whats it for and do i need it. thanks

 

i'm sure you need it

 

Follow the wires and see where they go. It may be used to turn off the low beems when your high beems are turned on. Or maybe, to have the bumper lights flash, then your corner lights flash, then your bumper lights flash.....etc....just maybe.

 

I THINK THE ONE YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT IS A GREENISH LOOKING BOX RIGHT? I BELEIVE THAT IS THE RELAY FOR THE COOLING FAN...............DON'T REMOVE!

 

I believe it's the relay for the condenser fan. OK to remove if you don't have AC.

if these wires go through the firewall with the AC lines that's what it is.

 

i have that..but its on both sides isnt it? i believe its a relay for your lights

 

i had the same question, i removed the ac system today and when i follow the wires to that black thing it leads me to the ac wiring harness, so i dont think it has anything to do with the lights

 

i think you are right

 

relay for condenser fan sounds reasonable to me

 

throw it out its for your ac

 

the thing is i think only the 90-91s have them, my bros 88 doesnt have one. oh well ill see what happens when i remove it.

 

my 89 has one, and it has a/c. does your brother's 88 have a/c? i'm sure that's what its for.

 

one is regular cooling fan, and the other is for AC

Actually my 88 has 3 relays and they all look the same. I know one is for the fan, and one is for the ac. Thats all i know

 

just leave it, watch you cut it and you start to get shorts.

there all for the ac. one is the A/C clutch relay, one is the condenser fan relay, and one is the AC diode with 3 wires( the 90 - 91 have it under the dash above the ECU).

BTW the relay mounted on the fender wall by the grounding thing is ur radiator fan. if u remove anything else KEEP THIS ONE.
