I've been looking for a place to get these. For some reason its the cause of my T&T Problem. I have 1 that works and 2 that dont and I'd like to just get 2 more that I know are new and work and fix the problem right now as it sits and hopefully have a backup one.

If anyone knows the part number or where I can find them it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

(Congrats to me on my first post!)

look for bosch style SPDT automotive relay. Waterproof would be a nice feature but if you can not find waterproof then just regular will work too. "Bosch style SPDT" defines the size, shape, and function. No need to worry about electrical pinouts. It is a global standard from the auto industry.

NAPA, or if you want to pay more - Mercury dealer.

You guys are awesome.

1 more question.
Should I buy the 20/30amp or 30/40amp?

I bought 1 because the problem was this relay before and now that relay I bought from an auto parts store doesnt work again.

I wasnt sure if I needed the ones from the mercury dealership but I will head to Napa tomorrow and buy a couple and see if it fixes the problem.

Thanks for the fast replys!

30/40 is the most common. One contact is rated for more amps than the other. In a trim application both relays are active and your real limit will always be the lower number.
