Thread: Relay #6 and #7 in the fusebox!

Hi Keithy - don't know about the current rating of the yellow relays but I have replaced them with the black FRC1BA relays from JayCar with no problems in the past. Important thing is to make sure they have the same pins, i.e. 30, 85, 86 and 87. The relays that also have pin 87a in the middle are replacements for the green relays.

Cheers, Paul.

Thanks Paul!

I'll chuck the relays in that i've got now and see how things go! I'll know if i get a problem down the track!

Gday Keithy. Relays 6 and 7 are fdor the aircon and engine auxilliary coolant fans. 40 amps beats 30 if the pin numbers and arrangement are the same, but the limit here is the crappy printed circuit tracks sandwiched in the relay and fuse board [a 350 dollar item]. If your relays were cooked, the pin sockets and tracks feeding them are probably burnt too,causing high resistance and misleading voltage signals to "Big Brother".Burnt tracks can be "jumped" with real wire to increase current flow;surgery details are on Aulro and Rangerovers.net. Mine was seriously burned out at relays 6 and 7, and from relay 6 across to fuse 34,and also the fuel pump relay 12. I would do this mod. even on a new board;the funny voltages have caused expensive false diagnostic results, and a replacement board will go the same way eventually.Been there, been done by that, but I love the challenge.
