Question radiator fan relay harness?

Long story short, I had an engine fire and those 4 relays right above the passenger side headlight are KFC crispy!

I've been looking around for replacements, and it seems like that section is supposed to be able to clip off from the front harness. This is a pretty stupid question, but does anybody know where it disconnects from?

I removed the airbox and looked all around the area but it seems like the wiring is just 1 thick chunk that runs along the fender and front of the car. I have a 94 touring if that makes a difference.

Thanks!

The wiring for the four fan relays run to a plug in the same area where the ECU is located, which is behind the lower panel on the passengers side of the car. You might contact Ray Crow with Malloy Mazda to inquire about replacement parts. Just do a search for his contact info. Hope that helps.

There is a small harness that goes between the body harness and those relays. That might be what you need.

If you can get a hold of the FD cooling system recall kit:

N3A1-18-SEO fan control kit;

it also contains the short harness for the fan relays.
I bought one just to get that harness because it was cheaper at the time.

figured it out. Turns out my car didn't have that extra harness that connects the relays to the front harness. The relays were plugged directly into the front harness.

I think that extra harness was part of the fan recall kit, unfortunately my car never had that done apparently, so i was confused when other people were saying there's a section that should separate.
