eec relay

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 22-Nov-02 AT 10:34 AM (EST)] Before I test my contortionist abilities just where is the EEC relay? I have an 84 F-150 4x4.

Probably mounted to the driver's fender near the hood hinge. Use the wire colors from a wiring diagram to ID which relay does what.

The EEC IV relay is most likely on the fender near the battery. Most likely the fuel pump relay is next to it. Both relays have power from a fusable link of the starter relay. The EEC IV realy is a brown connector, the fuel pump is green. Why do you need to know this any way, what is the problem?

Well ya got 3 different places now :-) . Mine is mounted next to the computer on the right side. The computer is under the dash just right of the steering column. There should be a wiring harness going through the firewall leading to it.

I really don't have to find it but I'm going to install a couple of auxilliary power relays for other stuff such as radiator fans and stuff and I just like to isolate stuff like this from the regular harness to ovoid overloading problems and such, I also thought about scrounging up a second EEC relay and socket for the secondary circuit.

Don't use the '84-style relays - they suck and are hard to find. Use the '92-up Bosch-style 30A standard relays used in Volvo, Porsche, Jaguar, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Mazda, etc. Even WM sells them from Blazer. You can get socket for them online for under $2.
