The fog lamp relay is located about a foot behind the assembly line diagnostic link.


Happy Racing!

Hello Roc THIS!!

The fog lamp relay according to the 1987 service manual is located right in front of the windshield washer tank, on the fender. On my 1987 IROC that's where it's located, and my 1987 Z-28 doesn't have the fog lights, and it's also missing this relay, that's supposed to be located right in front of the windshield washer tank!!



P.S. It's a square BOSCH relay!!

The relay was right there and that was the problem . Bad relay caused the fuse to blow . You guys saved me again . Thanks guys
