Hey guys, I was able to get the second relay today at NAPA here in town. They could not reference the numbers off it, but when they looked through all their relays we found one just like it. So here goes, I will try and do the swap of the two relays. So far $7 for the first relay, and $17 for the second relay.I have some wire, ends, solder and will have to swap it over and see if I can put it on and it works. (At the risk of more bulk packs of fuses, but I think with both new relays it should be fine....)

Fixed it, two new relays, $17 + $7 + $2 in ends and solder, back up and running, also did new ground run from the harness to ground on passenger side. All working fine again. Let's hope it stays working that way.

Rather then solder bridges on the control side, I added connectors to jumper wires. In the case of the 12 gauge power wire, and ground I stripped and added a mid line connector to power both relays, to ground both relays. Super happy to have it work first try and to have the britebox working again.

You just made a $200+ C$ for under C$30.

Nice job.

Yup, it feels good. Hopefully this thread is now dead.

Dead until some one has a problem and sees what they think is one like theres
