    The relay circuit board is part of the under-hood fuse/relay box and contains these relay circuits:

    • A/C main relay circuit
    • Brake light relay circuit
    • Daytime running light relay circuit
    • IGA relay circuit
    • IGC relay circuit
    • Interior lights cut relay circuit
    • Security horn relay circuit
    • Taillight relay circuit

    NOTE:
    • Make sure the correct test lead (+ or -) is placed on the terminal.
    • When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting ( ) on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
    • Remember this important operating characteristic; diode bias causes a diode to fully conduct electricity in one direction (forward), while not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).

    Daytime Running Light Relay Circuit and Interior Lights Cut Relay Circuit 

    Daytime running light relay circuit

    • There should be battery voltage at terminal B4 when 12 volt battery power is connected to terminal B12, and 12 volt battery ground is connected to terminal B10.
    • There should be no voltage at terminal B4 when terminal B10 is disconnected.

    Interior lights cut relay circuit

    • There should be battery voltage at terminal B1 when 12 volt battery power is connected to terminal B9, and 12 volt battery ground is connected to terminal A8.
    • There should be no voltage at terminal B1 when terminal A8 is disconnected.

    Brake light relay circuit

    • There should be continuity between terminals C2 and C3, when 12 volt battery power is connected to terminal C4, and 12 volt battery ground is connected to terminal C5.
    • There should be no continuity between terminals C2 and C3, and there should be continuity between terminals C10 and C2 when terminal C5 is disconnected.

    Security horn relay circuit

    • There should be battery voltage at terminal B11 when 12 volt battery power is connected to terminal B5, and 12 volt battery ground is connected to terminal B2.
    • There should be no voltage at terminal B11 when terminal B2 is disconnected.
