Re: 89 camaro 2.8l

On different cars, V6 vs V8, there are different relays in that location. On the 1989 V6 the three relays are the Fuel Pump relay, the Radiator Fan relay, and the A/C compressor clutch relay. To determine which relay is which, look at the wire colors going to each relay, and match them up with the wiring diagrams. The only other relays of note in these diagrams are the Mass Airflow sensor relay, which is on the right hand side of the radiator support, and the high speed heat/A/C blower relay, which is on the A/C evaporator box near the accumulator.

Re: 89 camaro 2.8l

Your 2.8 does not have a MAF burnoff relay, that is an 8 cylinder thing only. The one relay that's in control of your MAF is the one I mentioned that you'll find next to the radiator.
