Re: Relay location 200 81

posted by  someone claiming to be Don Foster on  Sat Dec 8 00:37 CST 2001 [RELATED]

The metal relays sound like the door lock relays. The black relay might be for the power windows or flasher or rear defroster relay or any number of other uses.

Usually, the OD relay is white, orange, or blue, depending on the year and tranny style (A/T or manual).

Most often you can restore an OD relay to perfect operating condition by resoldering the circuit board. The same is true for most fuel pump relays (except for the sealed relays used on the early LH systems).

The picture below shows the OD relay on my '82 245t with manual transmission. Once the glovebox is removed from the dash (7 screws) it's easily accessible.
