Relay question..

From CEM to VEM, from LED to lightbulb and more. If you have an electrical problem, like a broken info-centre, search for answers in this category. This is also the place to be when you expect the problem to be of an electrical nature...

Relay question..

Post by Lee77 » Sun Apr 21, 2013 6:24 pm

I took a picture of my relays, I noticed a few things...

I seem to have a relay missing?.. Think it's the Auxiliary Water Pump (B18EP/FP engines)/Relay, Auxiliary Water Pump (B18FT engine)

Image

This only has 4 connection points.. Think this is the Inhibitor, Headlight Dim-Dip System

Image

But seems to have an extra pin?

hi Lee, I thought GT's had 2 litre engines? If so, I'm not sure they have auxiliary water pumps.

Hi Lee

Your relays are exactly as they should be. Or, at least, they seem identical to mine in my Celeb and everything works as it should!

The 2.0 litre engine does not have an auxiliary water pump, hence no relay for one.

You are quite correct about the headlamp inhibitor relay - it is the one you have, and it does have an extra pin that is not connected.
