What is the Ignition Relay all about?

Your car ignition relay is an electrical component that switches power to your fuel and ignition systems. When you turn the key to the On position, the ignition relay switches allows power to be diverted to systems needed to operate your vehicle. The ignition coil then receives power from the battery and delivers it to your spark plugs. This process ignites the fuel and enables your vehicle to run.

Keep in mind:

  • Ignition relay replacement is not a part of routine maintenance.
  • A faulty ignition relay can drain your battery.
  • Ignition switches that are improperly soldered can cause starting problems.
  • A buildup of hard oxide on the relay can cause the switch to malfunction.

How it's done:

  • The battery is disconnected and vehicle placed on jack stands
  • The defective solenoid is removed
  • The new solenoid is installed
  • The battery is reconnected and the jack stands are removed
  • The ignition is turned on to test the relay operation

Our recommendation:

The ignition relay is important to the operation of your vehicle. If your ignition relay is faulty, your vehicle will not start or a parasitic load will drain your battery when the ignition is off. If you suspect the ignition relay is faulty or your vehicle has ignition related problems, have one of our expert mechanics diagnose and repair it.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Ignition Relay?

  • Battery has a low charge
  • Engine stalls while idling or slowing down
  • Car won’t start, especially in hot weather
  • Dashboard lights go off when car stalls
  • Tachometer and speedometer go off and then come back on

How important is this service?

The ignition relay is an important component for vehicle operation. If your car is stalling while idling in traffic, there are potential safety issues. If your vehicle will not start because of a faulty ignition relay, you may be stranded. Have your ignition relay replaced once it has been deemed faulty.

Nissan Frontier V6-4.0L - Battery - San Francisco, California
The mechanic fixed the problem. However the website kept stalling when I was using it.I called the number but no one answered.My first appointment never happened.The mechanic called me after he was due to be here and said his app didn't update and he was at another job. Then I talked with Shauna ? who schedules the mechanics.The first call had no apology for the mix up.It was weird she was told me "you should have been able to book a mechanic three hours before ' I don't know how that happened." Not 'I'm sorry for the inconvenience there was a software glitch" she reschedules me for the next day.then ten minutes later calls me back .says 'I'm sorry I am going to have to change your appointment to the afternoon.By now I am upset.i tell her I waited all day yesterday for the mechanic.She says 'really, you only booked him at noon.' She is not the person you should have doing customer calls.So I get my new appointment and a new mechanic.He was supposed to show up between 3 and 4.I eventually call the office around 5.Just as the mechanic calls me and tells me he will be there in 30 minutes. The website also has a pop up box that says you can message but then it says there is no one online in a box underneath:/
