Did he give you a part number to look for? What color is the relay?

You could probably just wire in a standard 5-pin Bosch-style relay... I will crack open my book tomorrow and try to work up the schematic.... would cost you $5.00.

I think it was Chingon that said there are some 'verts in some yards near him (I think in TX?)
If you can find out exactly where the part is, part number, etc, maybe he could get one for you.
Otherwise, I think that as MeltedMonitor said, you could probably just wire up a standard relay to replace it.

Nissan uses the same relays for different uses. If we can figure out which relay it is, then we should be able to get a Nissan relay of the same type to workden240 wrote:I think it was Chingon that said there are some 'verts in some yards near him (I think in TX?)

the white box right above the fuse box is the Super Multi Junction box.
Looking at my FSM, the only two relays located back there are the rear window defogger relay (not needed since we have no rear defogger) and the bulb check relay. The top main relay is also there.
Since the car starts fine, I can assume that the ignition relay is not blown.
If the top functions fine, then the top relay is ok as well.

Re: (tenkawa_akito)
Alright i got it out....
actually i got it out a few days ago already but been real bz with skool and work and all...
I'm 99% sure this is the one if its behind that white box that is right above the daym fuse box...its brown...there is one other one right next to it...its pretty small though so i don't think that could be it...
This one had like 6 wires going into it and 2 of them were pretty big...say 12 or 14 gauge compared to your typical 16 or so car wire gauge...
The numbers are as follows...
25230C996312V30406H
On the top of the fuse, it has the following:
3 o--o/ o--o 56 o--o/ o--o 71 o--@@--o 2
/ is the switch, @@ is some resistor i belive...
I really hope this is it...please help...if you can get or find me another fuse or if you can help me bypass this...that would be great...
ONE MORE THING:
Someone told me you can crack these relays open and tell if they are bad if they are burnt or something like that...is this true?
