Where's the Main Relay in 1989 Honda Civic DX 4 Dr?

Jun 23, 2006 3 Replies

My 1989 Civic has the classic intermittent starting symptoms. According to info I got from websites I'm looking for the MITSUBA RZ-0063 7 pin Main Relay. I've been looking under the left side dash with mirror and flashlight and haven't found this relay. I see the relays that are mounted in the fuse box panel and the 4 pin relay that's just above the hood release. Thanks - Jim


You're very close. It helps to have a new one in your hand. Alternatively, maybe the pictures and photos at the following sites will help:

jim beam supplied me with a number of pics of his '89 Civic's relay location (same generation as the '88). I have included those pics in the Main Relay page. Why Honda chose that terrible location is beyond me.

You sure are.

There's another one there... Keep looking!

To the left of and in front of the coin tray bolted to a steel beam.
