1 Answer

yay. but one must ask 'why did if fail?' was the relay burnt? why do you suppose that it failed? mechanical separation? themal cycling--then crack? expected this repair to hold out in the long haul? Coil heats up and causes failure?---further forensic analysis is required...you know quite certain it cannot be more the forty dollars, you could replace this unit too-
