Ignition relay location?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know where this is located I have finally found out there is a ignition relay but now where is it

ignition realy???...Do you mean the main relay?...either way It should be located above the fuse panel inside the car on the drivers side to the left of the steering column...at least thats where they are in a 91 Legacy, and in my 96 Legacy thats where they put the main relay, FP relay, and sub fan relay #2 ( on models with A/C)...

i am working on my 1990 legacy and i think the ign relay is bad, no power to the ecm fuse is good. is the ign relay up above the fuse box and who was the idiot who put it up there?

For the 11th time, it is WAAAY up in the very top corner of the dash.  Drivers side.  all the way to the left, all the way up.

Nice thread dig... isn’t there another current one that’s working on/covering this already??

I have an 02 Subaru Legacy car stays running when I turn it off and pull the key out Doesn't do it all the time.  Instrument cluster just came on and went off After a minute And the key is not in Ignition
