THE 1994-95 "N" BODY SERVICE MANUAL INCORRECTLY LISTS THE LOCATION OF THE EBCM RELAY. PAGE 8A-44-3 STATES THAT THE RELAY IS LOCATED AT THE "REAR OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT, CENTER OF DASH PANEL". PAGE 8A-201-10, FIGURE 30 AND PAGE 5E1-259, FIGURE 24 SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE RELAY "REAR OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT, CENTER OF DASH PANEL". THESE LOCATIONS ARE INCORRECT.

THE 1996 "N" BODY SERVICE MANUAL CORRECTLY LISTS AND SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE EBCM RELAY. PAGE 8A-44-4 STATES THAT THE RELAY IS LOCATED AT THE "LEFT REAR OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT." PAGE 8A-201-6, FIGURE 11 SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE RELAY AT "LEFT REAR OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT." THE RELAY IS ACTUALLY LOCATED ON THE STRUT TOWER.
