    Comments about BWD/Intermotor Relay:

    I purchased this little nugget while trying to trouble shoot a 1996 Honda Accord LX. I was having issues starting the vehicle sometimes and of all the options available to me, this was the cheapest. It ultimately ended up being a blown head gasket, but this little part was rather cheap and so freaking easy to install, that I couldn't help myself. I figure some are asking how this part could get mixed up with a blown head gasket...so here we go: The vehicle was not starting very sparatically and this part was step one. But after the white smoke started pouring out of the exhaust like the space shuttle Challenger on take off, I knew it had to be the head gasket.

      Comments about BWD/Intermotor Relay:

      Part was in stock and fit exactly like the original part. It solved a problem that I have had for a couple of years now-hard starts in hot summer conditions. My car seems to run better and the idle speed is very consistant which eliminated the shifter vibration when stopped at traffic lights (a common condition in older Hondas).

        It was only hard to install due to the location in which Honda placed it under the dash.

        • Q:

          I have a 1990 Honda Accord LX. When the car had been shut off, after running at operating temperatures, when I try to start the car again (usually after 5-10 minutes) the fuel pump will not run. If I wait another 15-20 minutes the vehicle will eventually engage the fuel pump and the car will operate with out issue. This is not only related to hot summer days, this can happen on other days as well, but seems to be directly related to an engine that has been shut off at operating temperature and is restarted a few minutes later. I'm assuming the relay, but are there other possible items that could cause this symptom?

          Thanks
          -Chris

            A:

            With reference to this BWD/Intermotor Relay - part# R3265, the relay may be the possible cause of the problem on your Honda Accord LX. However, I would suggest taking your vehicle to a certified mechanic for a proper diagnosis before buying and having parts installed that may not (solve/be) the problem. For any further assistance, you may also visit your nearest Advance Auto store or call us directly at 1-877-ADVANCE (238-2623) and one of our representatives there would be more than happy to assist you.

        • Q:

          Our 1994 Accord 4 cyl with auto and AC, will not start. The engine won’t crank even when using jumper cables. The accessories come on but the engine won’t turn over at all. The fusible link is good and the 7.5 amp fuse for the starter (in the fuse box inside the vehicle) is also good. If the accessories (radio, fan, power windows) get power and operate when the key is turned does this mean the ignition switch is functioning properly? A new ignition switch is over $100. I was told that there is a relay on the underneath of the vehicle that could be the cause of the failure to crank and thus not start. My options are to get under the vehicle and find and then replace this relay or get the vehicle towed to a shop for repair. I am leaning towards getting it towed. Advice or comments appreciated. Thanks.
