I am having trouble finding the kick down relay in my 93 Loyale. The car has been converted to a manual, but the kick down relay is shorted and every time the accelerator is floored it blows a fuse. I need the replace the relay and I can't find the relay. I know where the solenoid is, but I can't find the relay. If I replace the relay I think I can solve the fuse problem. Mitchell says that it is behind the glove box, but I have about torn out the dash over there and I cannot find it. HELP

Thanks

What, no help?

Someone out there has to have an answer for me.

I have an FSM for an 88, I could look in it and see what I find. I think it should be the same for you? Give me a few hours here and I will look it up and see what it says...

I am a horrible person, and totally forgot to look in my FSM!!! Sorry about that. Going out now to get my FSM, will post back in a few, I swear

Ok, so my FSM says the relay is located at i48, which is behind the glove box, on the left hand side towards the stereo, but not in the stereo "compartment". Should be right next to the radio "compartment". The solenoid is located in the engine compartment according to the FSM, not on the inside of the car, so are you sure you have the kickdown solenoid?

 

If you need I can take a pic of the FSM, but it really doesn't explain its location too well...

thanks man. I will look this weekend. I appreciate the help.
