Missing Relay On Panel...

Post by msmyer »

While looking for my air conditioning relay today (which wasn’t with the other relays) I noticed one is missing.

Anyone know what this one is? Not sure why it’s gone or even what’s it for...

That fuse appears to be labeled Mayday. Too bad it's June now. :lol:

It appears to just be a blank as far as I can tell.

Yep, it's blank space (for a fuse, not a relay).

You will run into this on many cars. It all depends on the options the car comes with as to how the car is wired. The manufacture just leaves out the things that are not needed or used.

Had a suspicion about this MAYDAY fuse, so I consulted the '05 owner's manual. That fuse was used for OnStar starting on the '05s, if equipped. Such a thing didn't exist on our '03s, so they must have been planning ahead.
