There's nothing for giving you a smug feeling like having an unusual fault *and* happening to have just the bit to fix it :o) Reminds me of a breakdown I had 20 years or so ago in my mum's mini - the windscreen shattered, for no apparent reason, in the middle of nowhere, and at about 11PM. I was faced with the prospect of having to wait there until mobile phones became widespread! Years before that, she'd seen a polythene and wire "emergency windscreen" in Halfords' window and made it probably the only thing she ever bought in that shop. It then spent the intervening years knocking around in the boot as the only spare part she ever carried besides the wheel. All I had to do was peel away the soggy cardboard and I was on my way in minutes. Even the wipers still worked on it! I have to say your symptoms sound a bit weird for a duff relay though. It could have gone a bit high resistance I suppose, but they normally just fail to pull in altogether or weld themselves permanently on. Mind-you, I suppose if it costs a hundred quid, it must be a lot more than just a relay? Cheers, Colin.
