Renault Clio III MK3 2009-2012 Cooling Fan Twin Relay Box
G. Cartier 12V • 70A + 35A • Used Wiring Pigtail Included
Important fitment correction

The photographed item is not a Land Rover Freelander YWB100980 relay. The item shown is a twin G. Cartier relay holder removed from a 2011 Renault Clio III. The applicable Clio III facelift model-year range is shown as 2009-2012, but only for vehicles using the identical 70A/35A relay assembly, green control plug, wire layout and mounting holder. Engine specification must still be checked before purchase.

What is included

You will receive the exact used relay assembly shown in the photographs: black protective holder, blue 12V 70A relay, grey 12V 35A relay, green control connector and the pictured wiring tails. The heavy-current orange wires have been cut during removal, so professional electrical joining or component transfer may be required. This is not advertised as a plug-and-play complete loom.

Renault Clio III / Clio 3 Pre-Facelift 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 Not confirmed - do not assume fitment Purchase only if every relay number, connector, wire and holder detail matches the original unit exactly
Renault Modus / Grand Modus and other Renault models Any Possible similar-looking versions exist; not confirmed Exact assembly and connector match required - model name alone is not enough
Renault Clio IV / Clio 4 2012 onward Not listed as compatible Different vehicle generation - do not order solely because the registration year is 2012
Renault Clio II / Clio 2 All years Not listed as compatible Different generation and electrical arrangement
Land Rover Freelander 1 All Does not match YWB100980 Do not purchase as a YWB100980 replacement

Year and body-style note: this listing covers the 2009-2012 Clio III facelift period only. The relay arrangement is engine and equipment dependent rather than simply 3-door or 5-door dependent. A vehicle within these years is not automatically compatible; the original relay numbers, plug and wiring must match.

How to confirm fitment before ordering
  1. Compare the complete holder shape and every mounting clip with the listing photos.
  2. Confirm your original assembly has one 70A relay and one 35A relay in the same positions.
  3. Compare the green plug shape, pin count, wire colours and wire gauge.
  4. Read the numbers directly from your old relays and housing. Do not rely only on registration lookup.
  5. Send your registration, VIN and clear old-part photographs through eBay Messages when uncertain.
Part-number warning: similar relay boxes can look almost identical but have different internal wiring. Matching only the vehicle model or relay colour can result in incorrect fitment.
Where it is fitted and what it controls

On a Renault Clio III this type of high-current relay assembly is fitted in the engine-compartment electrical / relay area. It switches the larger electrical load used by the engine cooling fan, allowing the low-current control circuit to operate the fan's speed circuits. Exact location and wiring arrangement vary with engine and equipment, so follow the vehicle wiring diagram and compare the original unit before removal.

Possible symptoms of a faulty cooling-fan relay assembly
Cooling fan does not operate when the engine becomes hot
Fan works at only one speed or operates intermittently
Engine temperature rises in traffic or while stationary
Air conditioning performance drops at low road speed
Relay clicking, burnt smell, heat damage or corroded connections
Repeated fuse failure caused by a fan motor or wiring fault

Diagnosis first: a non-working fan can also be caused by a fuse, fan motor, temperature sensor, wiring, ECU command or poor earth. Do not drive an overheating vehicle.

Fitting guide

Recommended installer: competent mechanic or auto electrician. High-current wiring must be joined using correctly rated automotive terminals and sealed against moisture.

  1. Switch the ignition off, remove the key and disconnect the battery negative terminal.
  2. Allow the vehicle electrical system to power down before working near the fuse and relay area.
  3. Locate the original relay assembly and photograph the wiring before disconnection.
  4. Confirm the replacement holder, relay ratings, plug and wire positions match exactly.
  5. Release the holder and connector. Repair or join cut high-current wires using correctly sized sealed crimps / terminals and heat protection.
  6. Secure the holder away from heat, water and moving components. Refit all protective covers.
  7. Reconnect the battery, clear any fault codes where required and test fan operation at all commanded speeds.
Suggested tools and materials

10mm socket or spanner, trim tool, small flat screwdriver, torch, multimeter or test lamp, professional ratchet crimping tool, correctly rated sealed terminals, adhesive heat-shrink, loom tape and suitable diagnostic equipment.

Estimated repair time: approximately 45-120 minutes depending on access, corrosion, diagnosis and whether wiring repair is required.
