Re: Remove Aero-Drive Wiring
Posted by HH56 On 2024/2/27 10:31:37
No problem in removing the relay but if any of the wires are run as part of the main loom and are just going to be cut off or tucked aside then care needs to be taken with a couple of them.
The wire going to relay terminal 1 is power in for the overdrive so will be hot at all times. The wire going to terminal 2 has the other end attached to the coil terminal that goes to the distributor. Not all models had a fuse for the power in wire as shown on this drawing so you either need to make sure both terminal 1 and terminal 2 wires are disconnected at each end or else carefully tape and protect any traces of bare wire remaining at the loom so neither wire can touch ground or another wire.
R9 relays -- actually all R9 parts and particularly the electrical items are becoming scarce and expensive. Even if the relay has a problem it might be repairable or provide parts to fix another one so please don't throw it away.
