Re: Flash relay replacement Posted by nuysSAAB [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Flash relay replacement, Saab88, Sat, 17 Jun 2006 06:18:21 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Did you remove the lower dash panel/fascia? Haven't changed a flasher relay but have done other things under there... brake light switch and cruise control vacuum hoses. If you haven't removed the fascia, it would probably be difficult to change the relays located there.
To remove the fascia, you have to remove the ashtray and center console. First, remove any sound equipment ( equalizer, etc.). Then, remove the four screws securing the ashtray bracket and the bolt inside the bracket, then remove the center fascia bolt which the ashtray bolt screws into. Remove the accordian spacer between the floor console and center console and remove the two screws at the floor and the four screws on the console sides - two on each side. Remove the console. Under the hood near the top door hinges are two small bolts - one on each side - which secure the ends of the fascia to the car... remove these bolts and then gently but firmly pull the fascia from under the dashboard.
Once you're in there, unscrewing the relay socket from the mounting bracket might make removing the relay easier.
Hope this helps....
