#137884, "How to Disconnect Relays"




          

I'm talking about the relays on the drivers side of the firewall. I need to disconnect them for my compression check. I have pushed in on the plastic tab on the front side and pulled downward and they will not budge. I don't want to bend up the metal fastener trying to get them out. Am I doing something wrong or are they just really hard to pull off?

Better safe than sorry! Thanks!

Probably just stuck and hard to pull out. (that's what she said)

Get a pliers or something on it.

Yea they should pull right out, you can also just disconnect the coil pack and the injector harness when doing a compression check.

Thanks for the info. guys! I just pulled pretty hard on the relay while holding in the tab and using the other hand to keep the bracket from bending downwards.
