Started to work on another NSX.



There are lots of things to be done including another TB/WP/Valve service, refurbish of cooling system, brake system overhaul, ABS service and so on.


Once again, it’s a Targa model so I have to remove several things before I can even get to the IGN Coil cover.


After deciding on the order of each process, started with the Main Relay service.


This NSX is DBW model so requires extra process but not too bad.

It’s not broken and hidden behind scene but someone was desperate to remove this engine hatch glass opener…


Once again, the clips at the Upper rear trim panel were missing or broken.

It even had wrong spec clip that someone installed to hide the issue.


The alignment pin was also bent.

Replaced the Main Relay with the new one and the original one will be re-soldered and returned to the owner as an emergency spare for the future.
