  • In this video we discuss the ins and outs of the infamous Honda Main Relay. We explain where all the wires go, and show that it is not as intimidating as some believe it to be. We will go through each and every pin with our multimeter and show the audience each wire color, and its destination.

      That JDI main relay conversation is not a good idea as far as the fuel pump running at all times go ?

      I got a Honda Civic ek b16a Vtec 1997 model
      Problem that I noticed is that when I turn my ignition on fuel pump prime all the time (non stop ) and car starts perfect my understanding is that the fuel pump need to go off with a click it doesn’t do that.i just need help with having the fuel pump go on and go off again once relay clicks

    Hi is the immobiliser built in the main relay as well.
    Lost all the keys. Cut a blade/key, but won't start car.
    Do you know if a HONDA ACCORD 1992, 2.2, has immobiliser module. If so do you know where the immobiliser unit will be.
    Thanks.
