Picked up my spare relay

[Dmetcalf]

Stopped at Autozone today and picked one up. $26.00.. but I’m glad to have it just in case.

You fella's should look at the start date of these threads, and the date of the last few posts prior to posting up; I think this one's a bit of thread (& problem) archeology - ancient history...


I don't recall reading/hearing/seeing anything too much about relays being an issue on more than the odd occasion since I've been on the Forum.... the odd occurrence, sure, but I wouldna thunk enough to worry about going out & buying spares to carry all the time - at least, not unless maybe you were planning a long distance remote trip that should probably warrant you worrying more about where to get gas &/or how to carry 5 or so gallons for when you ran low miles from anywhere?!?

But I guess they are your Spyders....

Is it the same relay for all spiders? I have a 2015 STS

If you read back thru the ffirst couple of pages of this thread, there were some 2008/09 RS's that had loose & failing relay problems that prompted this thread & the discussion about alternatives to the OEM relays...

So unless your 2015 STS is having similar problems, you probably won't need to carry any spare relays! Are you having any start/run problems that might be relay related??

Is the same relay used in more recent models ..?
