Accessory Delay Relay

  1. Remove accessory delay relay from central junction box, located behind left side of instrument panel. Check relay continuity. Continuity should exist between relay terminals No. 85 and 86, and between relay terminals No. 30 and 87a. See Fig 1 . Continuity should not exist between relay terminals No. 30 and 87. If continuity is as specified, go to next step. If continuity is not as specified, replace relay.
  2. Using a jumper wire, apply battery voltage to relay terminal No. 85. Using a second jumper wire, ground relay terminal No. 86. Continuity should now exist between relay terminals No. 30 and 87. If continuity is not as specified, replace relay. If continuity is as specified, relay is okay at this time.
