Floyd. Wet noodles at twenty paces for calling me a liar! If I try to post a picture, it will be moderated, as I'm not conversant with the protocol needed (Whew). I have it here in my hand. One day after surgery. So. Fie on you. If you take all but the first line seriously, you are beyond help.

> Do you recall whether it was a 5 or a 9-pin relay? I do not, sorry. That car (1982 380SL) has been sold. (And scrapped, I later found out.) Many 'relays' of this era can be repaired. The culprits are usually solder joints, by far in the lead in my experience, and electrolytic capacitors.
