Mystery relays

[steve-V8s]

What are the two relays in the loom close to the ECU for ?

One is the main relay, the other is the fuel pump

If they are the loose metal ones then I think one is for the ecu and one for the fuel pump, from memory there is a fuse for the pump on the loom as well, cheers, John.

I posted something similar a while back....



Is there a way to visually tell them apart ? Are the black and blue holders standardised, one for main and the other for the fuel pump ?

[big geoff]

are they both the same part number

In my S the blue one is for the fuel pump, since any attempt to understand the electrics involves looking at a griff wiring diagram and guessing a lot I assume they're the same. I can't see why they would use different coloured plugs if they weren't the same way round on all cars(this is tvr though).

The two relays themselves are identical.

Thanks zombeh,

That's something to go on anyway. Yeah, the relays are identical, same part number.

on my 98 500 they are the same part no.
