DESCRIPTION
Some complaints have been received concerning a hard starting condition during very cold temperatures (approximately 0~F or less). The problem
occurs after a car has been driven and then stopped for 30 to 60 minutes. The car then becomes difficult to start, due to frost forming on the No. 1 & 2
main relay contacts.
To prevent this possibility, an improved moisture-proof relay has been established as a service part.
NOTE:
On 323 models, the same type of relay has been installed at the production line since June, 1986.. (Please refer to Service Bulletin Cat. 15, No.
034/86).
