I have an 09 Fit and the AC stopped working. The fuses look good. I want to check the relay for the AC compressor but the fuse panel does not say which relay is which.
Does anyone have a diagram showing what each relay i for?

 

Got this link on my initial search:

Hope it helps.

 

The relay is located in a little black box behind/under the driers side headlight. It should just pop open without tools.

 

Conner55 thanks for posting where the relay box is...tucked behind that headlight ...no clue as to where it is in the manuals or really online

 

Was running low on refrigerant and added some. Car cooled well for a week. I then went out of town for a week and the compressor does not kick. I cannot check the pressure on the low pressure port then. Pressure right now reads in the red but that is normal when the compressor does not kick.

which one of the three relays is the one controlling the clutch and how to short so that the compressor engages?

thanks.

 

what i would do is locate the box. The relay that runs length wise is the AC clutch (the other 2 that are next to each other run in the other direction. another way to explain is it is the lone relay that is towards the fender. I would swap out one from the other 2 as all 3 are identical. see if your compressor kicks on like mine did. It might!!! or not one way to find out. let me know

Peter if you are having AC problems this might be your answer. all the info you need is online you just have to research it and figure it out removing the battery is easy. spend the time to figure it out. I knew which was the compressor relay and swapped it out with one of the others and the AC kicked on. THAT is how I knew I had a bad power relay. power relay can be bought on amazon for 20 dollars

 

this is where the box is on 2nd gen fit
