  4. Defogger Relay
  5. Headlamp Relay (High Beam)
  6. Fan Relay
  7. Outlet Relay
  8. E-CVVT Relay
  9. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when battery voltage and ground are applied to terminals No. 85 and No. 86.
  10. There should be no continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when power is off. Engine Room Relay Block
  11. Rear Defogger Relay
  12. Cooling Fan Relay
  13. Cooling Fan Relay
  14. There should be continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when battery voltage and ground are applied to terminals No. 85 and No. 86.
  15. There should be no continuity between terminals No. 30 and No. 87 when battery voltage is disconnected.

Power Relay (Type A) Check continuity between terminals. Power Relay (Type B) Check continuity between terminals. Metal Core PCB Block Fuse Multi Fuse Engine Room Fuse is designed to optimize the package.
  • The multi fuse must be replaced as an assembly if only one fuse is damaged.
  • When replacing the multi fuse, refer precisely to the "Engine Compartment - Component Location" diagram.
  • Use the correct ratings of the multi fuses for each circuit.
