Which One is the Honda City Window Relay?
2 Answers
Honda City window relay is located inside the left fender of the car. The window relay is a type of automotive relay. Here are detailed introductions about automotive relays: 1. Overview: A relay is an automatic control device where the output will change abruptly when the input (electricity, magnetism, sound, light, heat) reaches a certain value. Automotive relays are the relays used in cars. 2. Features: Automotive relays have high load switching power, and are highly resistant to shock and vibration. The power supply in cars is mostly 12V, and the coil voltage is mostly designed to be 12V. In the engine compartment, the ambient temperature range requirement is -40℃ to 125℃, while in other locations, the ambient temperature range is -40℃ to 85℃.
I've worked on numerous car models for repairs. The window relay for the Honda City is typically located in the fuse box under the driver's seat. Just open that plastic cover to see a row of relays and fuses. Check the manual or online resources for the exact position, usually marked as 'Power Window Relay' or 'Window Controller'. This small device acts like an electrical switch, directing current to the window motor. If the window doesn't respond and you don't hear a 'click', the relay is likely burnt out or has poor contact. Common issues include contact oxidation in older models leading to failure—simply pull out the old one and replace it with a new one of the same model, but remember to disconnect the battery's negative terminal first to prevent short circuits. Regular checks on connectors and cleaning can prevent faults. If DIY seems troublesome or uncertain, it's best to visit a 4S shop for a replacement—it's affordable and hassle-free.
