Where is the headlight relay?
So Im pretty sure that I fried my headlight relay-
Symptoms: lights pop up with the button on the dash high beams work when I pull teh stick toward me low beams will not work, but after 50ish attempts to turn the lights off and on, they will work, till I turn the car off I had a nasty radiator leak getting the front relay box showered in coolant and steam, so Im sure its in there, I just dont know which relay to check. Also, where can I get new relays, and how do I pull them out of that case? Thanks! -Jason |
anyone?

iirc, it is the 2nd relay from the right in the fuse box in front of the radiator.
you can get a new relay from the same place you get all your OEM parts > Malloy Mazda - phone in the FAQ sticky Pull it out using your index finger and thumb. it ain't hard. given your coolant wash, you might want to pull all of them and clean them with one of those electrical cleaner aerosols (maybe scrub the contact points with a toothbruh) then let it dry out and put them back in. Disconnect the battery ground if you clean the box as well as the relays. |
Isnt the headlight relay by the driver side shock tower and the headlight motor relay by the radiator?

Thanks for the help guys! |
there is 2..one for the headlights and one for the high/low (according to schematic..haynes manual)..when you pop the hood..you should almost have your hand on them(99% sure)..they are on the front top rad support (sort of below the hood latch)..any verification for this(you could always trace wires)

sorry if my info was wrong..I knew there were two there "assumed" they were associated..that is why I threw the verification in there..goin to look for a real manual too..haynes sucks!
