What is the Ignition Relay all about?

Your car ignition relay is an electrical component that switches power to your fuel and ignition systems. When you turn the key to the On position, the ignition relay switches allows power to be diverted to systems needed to operate your vehicle. The ignition coil then receives power from the battery and delivers it to your spark plugs. This process ignites the fuel and enables your vehicle to run.

Keep in mind:

  • Ignition relay replacement is not a part of routine maintenance.
  • A faulty ignition relay can drain your battery.
  • Ignition switches that are improperly soldered can cause starting problems.
  • A buildup of hard oxide on the relay can cause the switch to malfunction.

How it's done:

  • The battery is disconnected and vehicle placed on jack stands
  • The defective solenoid is removed
  • The new solenoid is installed
  • The battery is reconnected and the jack stands are removed
  • The ignition is turned on to test the relay operation

Our recommendation:

The ignition relay is important to the operation of your vehicle. If your ignition relay is faulty, your vehicle will not start or a parasitic load will drain your battery when the ignition is off. If you suspect the ignition relay is faulty or your vehicle has ignition related problems, have one of our expert mechanics diagnose and repair it.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Ignition Relay?

  • Battery has a low charge
  • Engine stalls while idling or slowing down
  • Car won’t start, especially in hot weather
  • Dashboard lights go off when car stalls
  • Tachometer and speedometer go off and then come back on

How important is this service?

The ignition relay is an important component for vehicle operation. If your car is stalling while idling in traffic, there are potential safety issues. If your vehicle will not start because of a faulty ignition relay, you may be stranded. Have your ignition relay replaced once it has been deemed faulty.

Hyundai Elantra L4-2.0L - Battery - Seattle, Washington
Great, fast service! He was running late and gave me a call to give me a heads up which was nice. It was so easy to have Casey come to me instead of having my car towed somewhere to be fixed! He switched the battery in and out, checked my alternator, anti-freeze fluid, and brake pads (by looking through the hubcap?! Who knew it was that easy?!) And that was it! Easy peasy. I would definitely use your-mechanic again.

Hyundai Elantra L4-1.8L - Car is not starting - Scottsdale, Arizona
I had my friend used my car and he accidentally had put diesel instead of gas without realizing it causing a "crank no start" issue in the car. After having it checked by 2 more mechanics, only Michael was able to quickly & rightly diagnose the problem stating it's the wrong fuel type. Michael's engagement with me was a scheduled fuel pump replacement, which was recommended by the first YourMechanic tech. As per the first tech diagnostic report, the fuel pump is faulty giving low pressure causing a crank no start issue. I was skeptical about low-pressure diagnostic considering the fuel pump was very new and I had pressure tested it myself. But I still went with scheduling the replacement service with YourMechanic based on the first tech's claim stating if this will not fix the problem, YourMechanic will not charge me for parts and labor for this service (which I learnt later was bogus promise) Thank God, I trusted my instinct and asked Michael to double check the pressure before proceeding with replacement. He confirmed too the pump was giving correct pressure, suggesting there is something else going on. Michael then changed my appointment type to another diagnostic service, performed the diagnostic and rightly identified the cause. He is very thorough with the service, took snapshots, recordings and proper documentation of the job. On separate note, I learnt my lesson with YourMechanic, getting any refund or warranty cover from them is not easy. I ended up paying twice for diagnostic, since they refuse to refund me the first mis-diagnostic charge, stating they don't have any guarantee policy on diagnostic service. I can't imagine the nightmare, if I had paid for fuel pump service and trying to get that money back. Long story short, I highly recommend Michael but not YourMechanic.
