HELP relay issue

[Gorman]

Guys, I had all the relays out of my fuse box (well my auto electrical guy did), he's mixed them up and now I can't remember where the type A/B/C relays go. I'm nervous to go "trying" them out as some will have the diode and some will have the resistor and I don't want to fry anything.

He broke 2 getting them out so need to buy a couple also.

Can anyone help me please.

what are you looking for what fuse panel are you on about better yet what was the problem which took you to this

Engine bay fuse box. Right hand side of the battery.

Switch protection unit that link should be what you need

Saw this, doesn't specify what type of relay goes where.

is yours coloured relays

No, they're all the small black micro relays, the 4 Pin type. Etched on the top are different numbers and the letters A,B or C. I need to figure which goes where is all.

I've looked on the electrical and parts systems what car have you got 2008 Clio 197 non cup

I have a 2006 197. Non cup.

OK I cant find a list or simple diagram the relay locations are standard so the relays will be standard eg aircon will be the same relay across the range headlight etc so some good pics of the UPC zoom in should give an idea of the relay.

Yeah I've had a look and it doesn't specify which goes where. But all the relays look the same (pins, size, colour), but there are different numbers on top. The dipped beam needs a relay with a resistor and if a relay with a diode is put in it'll fry a part of the board and it'll all have to come back out again.

best I can come up with from all the Mk3 ups that are for sale

That's what I though too!!

Except when I looked, there's a "C" in there too!!!

My dipped beam relay melted into the fuse box, so I had it repaired, then as I mentioned, my auto electrical guy fired them all back in randomly and when I fired it up again it fried a resistor inside so had to rip it out again and get it sorted.

Hi, If these relays were mixed up, would this cause my clio to not start, Car has been parked for 3 Months and no one can figure out what is wrong, Water got into the UPC box, Basically everything surged, lights going on and off by itself, disconnected the battery, and got a second hand UPC box. still no avail, all lights light up on the dash, but not cranking and fuel pump not priming. I did move the relays around.
