They can LOOK perfect but have a hairline crack. My 78 240D drove me
crazy looking all over for relays, grounds, etc before I saw the fuse
arc when my wife pressed the brake pedal! I must have checked the
fuses 3 times before finding that small crack!
Replace them!

Theres a couple actually. The 18 relay is the "load reduction relay" which
turns off the daytime running lamps and such when you start the car. Mine seems to be
good, I can apply power and make it click and see continuity. I can see power to it in
the fuse box too.
The other one is the 109 which is the main ECM (the computer basically). The
thing is if that one fails usually the car won't start but mine does start and
runs fine...
7 fuses involved Wilton. I pulled every fuse out, checked and cleaned it and
put it back. Not the same as replacing them but they all look perfect.

Don't these cars have a master relay or something similar that can die?
Back in the day some folks would carry a spare.
