picture of main relay in an 82?

Whizbang · 03-31-2009, 09:11 PM

anyone have a picture of the main relay in a 1982. The haynes isnt the best and i dont have an FSM that covers 81-83. Can't quite figure out if its either or both of the two black relays or the larger gold anodized one that says "check"

Im not sure there is one. IIRC the check relay is for emissions and choke stuff.

i was thinking that it was, but i was also thinking there HAD to be a main relay. i guess that just might not be the case. What would the two black plastic relays be then? A/C?

I don't think there is one. I have a complete '83 wiring harness with all relays, etc. and I don't remember one.

There is no main relay. The four on the fender are[ Hot start assist outboard forward;#2 AC outboard aft;Choke/Check inboard aft;#1 AC inboard forward. At least that is their config coming out of the factory. ref 9999-95-016G-82
