Relay help!!!
« on: December 01, 2014 - 03:39:15 PM »
I am putting together a '72 Challenger for a friend. He bought it in pieces so I am not the one that took the car apart. It came with the following relay:



I am guessing after googleing the part number that it is an A/C relay. Does a '72 challenger use one and if so where does it go? And where do the wires come from that hook to it?  :pullinghair:

In fact, is there a seperate A/C wiring harness for this car?

Thanks!

Jeff

That looks like the horn/key buzzer relay.  It plugs into the fuse box on the interior side of the bulkhead connector.

Thanks Burdar! I will check tonight to see if it has one and if it looks the same.

Okay, I looked at the relay that Burdar suggested on the fuse box and this relay is bigger and has more terminals than that relay.

I am still trying to determine if I need this relay and where it goes. Also what wires connect to it.   :banghead:

Thanks!

I bought a relay off ebay recently advertised as a horn relay, when I got it, it dint fit, one terminal was spaced wrong, looked up the number and  I have an electric window relay, completely useless to me !!!

jhaag,
    I agree, I did the same search and got the same results. I am just trying to find out if this relay actually goes with this car and if so, where does it mount and what wires go to it. At this time I am not sure where any of the A/C wires come from or go to.  I have some investigating to do and questions to ask!!   :dunno:

   I know my fellow Mopar enthusiasts will come to my rescue and help me out with this like they have so many times before!!  :cheers:

Jeff
