Relays are electrical switches used to convert a small electrical load into a circuit capable of handling a high amperage load. Computers and small switches are not designed to carry the higher amperage requirement of a circuit that may have an electric motor, solenoid, or high amperage lighting fixture. Within a relay are contacts that are controlled with electromagnetism, when the circuit switch commands the device on or off, magnetism will pull or release the contact arm closing or opening the contacts within the relay that carry the voltage.

GM Genuine Parts Wiring Relays are designed, engineered, and tested to rigorous standards, and are backed by General Motors. These relays help connect or disconnect power to a vehicle accessory when it receives a low voltage signal from a switch. GM Genuine Parts are the true OE parts installed during the production of or validated by General Motors for GM vehicles. Some GM Genuine Parts may have formerly appeared as ACDelco GM Original Equipment (OE).

Modern vehicles may have 100 or more electrical harness connectors in every operating system of the vehicle. Terminal tension may weaken with time or corrosion may occur within the connector housing making replacement necessary. When replacing any harness-connector assembly approved wire termination methods must be followed to ensure a successful and long-term solution to the original problem is made. A failed terminal connection, terminal corrosion or damaged wire will result in an electrical system fault.
