Where is the air conditioning relay located in the Chevrolet Trax?

Snow Frank Chuangku air conditioning relay is inside the engine compartment fuse box. Method to locate the relay: Open the engine compartment of the Chevrolet Trax and locate the fuse box. Disconnect the positive terminal wire on the fuse box to open the fuse box cover. Then you can see the inside of the fuse box. Remove the wiring harness of the fuse box to take out the fuses. After removing the air conditioning fuse, you can see the relay. Relay fault detection method: The operation of the relay only indicates that its coil is energized, but whether the corresponding contacts it controls are effectively closed and conducting still needs to be tested. You can directly disconnect the wire connecting the cold pump to the relay contacts, use a meter to measure whether the relay contacts are conducting, or directly measure whether the voltage on this side of the contacts has been transferred.

As someone who often tinkers with cars, I've removed the Trax's AC relay several times. It's hidden inside the black box (fuse box) on the right side of the engine bay - there's a diagram on the back of the cover. Look for small square black components labeled R2 or R5, slightly larger than fuses. Remember to disconnect power! Last time I replaced it, I noticed the AC relay sits right next to the cooling fan relay - don't pull the wrong one. Before checking, confirm it's actually faulty by listening for a 'click' sound in the engine bay when turning on the AC - no sound usually means relay issues. Note that newer Trax models might have different relay locations, so better check the manual to confirm.

I work in auto repair. The Trax's AC relay is located in the engine bay fuse box B. Use a T20 screwdriver to remove the plastic cover – it's the blue square labeled 'HVAC', second from the left in the third row. Critical reminder: Disconnect the battery negative terminal before proceeding, otherwise you risk frying the control module. We've had cases where customers replaced it themselves only to find the compressor cycling on/off repeatedly – turned out to be oxidized relay base pins. Recommend cleaning the socket with contact cleaner before retrying. For pre-2019 Trax models, check the small fuse box near the driver's footwell (refer to the label diagram under the hood).

For beginners looking for the Trax AC relay, here's how: Open the hood and locate the black plastic box in front of the passenger seat. Remove the cover and check the diagram on its back to find the symbol labeled 'Compressor' or 'AC'. The relay is about the size of a matchbox and plugs into the corresponding slot. Last time my friend's car AC wasn't cooling, we found the relay was faulty when it rattled upon shaking. When buying replacement parts, note that different models may have different connectors - it's best to bring the old one for comparison. If unsure, a repair shop can usually handle it in about ten minutes, saving you the hassle of messing with wiring.

Research on the Trax's electrical circuits reveals that the air conditioning relay location varies by generation: for 2014-2018 models, it's in position R12 of the main fuse box in the engine compartment; post-2019 models have it at the F22 slot of the fuse box under the glove compartment on the passenger side. During troubleshooting, first check if there's 12V voltage at the relay coil terminal. If not, investigate the air conditioning switch signal. There have been cases where the relay was functional but the socket was corroded, manifesting as intermittent compressor shutdowns. Note that failures are particularly common during the rainy season, and avoid directly spraying high-pressure water at the fuse box area when washing the car.

My car is the Trax, and the AC relay is located in the fuse box at the front right corner of the engine bay. The operation is quite simple: press the clip to open the cover, then locate the small blue square labeled 'AC COMP.' Before starting, prepare a relay of the same model (part number 13578959), which costs around 30 yuan online. Important reminder: after disconnecting the power, wait five minutes before pulling it out—the car's computer needs time to shut down. Last time after replacement, I found no air coming from the vents—it turned out the fuse was blown as well. When checking, make sure to inspect the related 15A fuse for safety.
