Relay clicking

civic4g · Post by **civic4g** » Sun Nov 22, 2009 10:47 am

Hi Sometimes I notice that a few minutes (2 or 3) after i've started the car, I hear a relay clicking a few times and the engine stalls if the car is stopped and idling. If this happens when i'm already moving/cruising the engine will stall and recover. Any clue of what can cause this? Thanks in advance

have you checked, replaced or repaired the main relay?

No, but I don't think the problem is on the relay because this only happens when demon is connected to the laptop. I also loose connectivity to demon when this happens, don't know if it's the lost of connectivity that makes the relay click or vice versa.

I have the same when I connect a tunerview to my ecu which has a normal chip. So its not the demon. I asked the guys from tunerview and the told me it was some kind of distortion in my car. I had to set some caps over the ttl connector in the ecu. Never tried it though... Normaly I dont have the tunerview connected.

it could be de deamon.... We had the same issue than we have checked that the deamon is not connected to the ECU correcly... there could be a short between the legs..

My car did this when I found my ribbon cable on my ostrich had gone bad. So it could indeed be an issue with whatever connects the demon to the ecu(No clue, dont own a demon) Hope this helps MantisX
