Well sticking with the original topic, I too opened the old relay to look inside and repair. Looked just like the photos in the original post. No need to clean the contacts as it is easier to loosen the large outer nuts and you can simply rotate the copper contacts upside-down for fresh contact...
sorry but I never see a problem with friends talking back and forth on a certain subject. I thought applying a relay part number and low price along with the amount of time it lasted was very relevant to the conversation. my apologies just my opinion on forums. Delete away.
Just FYI... I emailed the company that made this $19 relay with some numbers off the case. The government put that cheap relay on eight years ago. Not bad in my opinion for a $45 savings. Food for thought.
here's what I took off. 19 dollars and it looks like it's been on there a long time. Hopefully this 60 dollars today it was well spent? http://www.murcal.com/Catalog/Metal-DC-Contactor-Family/974-1215-011-09
thanks again.when I call the auto parts stores just asking for a glow plug relay I get quoted 19 dollars. When I specifically asked for an ST85 it is 60 dollars. Is it worth the extra cash?
