Default Relay Question

I'm trying to figure this out..

Here is the Starter Relay in these Cars..this is the area that is behind the Glove Box up against the Door Panel..



What is the Relay that sits below it?

It's the same type of Relay, the wiring is all small 16g wires that go to the Connector. There is an Orange Wire, 2 Black ones, and a Tan/White stripe one.

What you think Rob(SHBox)?

Actually no.. I've never been behind it that far, and for some reason my Hatch Button never has worked.

Maybe that Relay ate ****..maybe not.

Another thing to gut out..

Thanks Rob.

Here's another question..

What are the two Relay's that are on the Drivers side of the Glove Box?

Pretty much in the same spot as these two, just on the other side of the Glove box..

^ those are flukes. GM installed them there for n00bs to get confused, that way the car requires GM technicians to replace the hatch relay and starter relay.

ORLY..lol

I haven't tore the underside of the Dash apart yet so I can get a good look at them to see what they are wired to..partially cause the Car is in a Storage Unit and there is very limited room..that and I'm not pretzeling my skinny *** in there for nothing that is hurting anything at the moment.

I'm just trying to gut all the little useless stuff out of the Car. Most of the Relays are the same in that area.. so that's extra Fuel Pump Relays and N/S Switch Relays for mine.

Hmm.. I checked out of curiosity on mine just now (since it's all gutted anyway) and I don't have relays there.. Maybe it's a 95 thing? I have a 93.. Definitely got the short end of the stick on all these cool gizmos and gadgets that 94+ cars got.

I'm going off of a hunch from what someone said.. Air Bag Relay sound like a winner?
