Detailed Description

Standard Ignition RY1985 is a convertible top relay engineered for the electrical system used on 2014-2019 Chevrolet Corvette models. As a relay, it helps route power within the convertible top circuit, supporting proper operation of the roof control system when the original relay is worn, intermittent, or no longer functioning. The relay uses a blade terminal interface with five male terminals and a push-on mounting style, making it a practical OE-style replacement for Corvette convertible top electrical service. This part number, RY1985, is also referenced by 22979781, R7488, and AR7488 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

• Convertible top switch response that does not trigger the roof circuit
• Intermittent roof operation caused by relay contact wear
• No-power conditions in the convertible top control path
• Electrical relay failure in the Corvette roof system
• Replacement needs after diagnosis confirms relay-related faults

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the terminal count, terminal gender, and push-on mounting style before installation. Confirm the vehicle is a 2014-2019 Chevrolet Corvette and compare the original relay part number or connector layout to RY1985 before replacement. Inspect the surrounding connector and terminals for heat damage, corrosion, or looseness so the new relay seats correctly and maintains stable electrical contact.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition supplies electrical service parts for automotive repair applications, and this relay is built to match the specified 12-volt, 5-terminal blade configuration used on the Corvette convertible top circuit.
