Standard Motor Products RY612 Relay, Oem Replacement

These relays are fine. First rate. If you lubricate the female receptacle in the fuse box with CRC Cleaner/Lubricant {BLUE can} or even with a squirt of WD-40 first...then push-pull the relay carefully into place making sure all five contacts align properly...you will have absolutely no problem pulling it out again in the future if need be. A little lubrication goes a long way! The relay cover will not come off. These relays are made to go in the slotted contacts very tightly. This ensures positive electrical connection to the device being protected. They are perfect for both my 1998 Chrysler Sebring Convertible {146K mi.} & my son's 2001 Sebring sedan {225K mi.}. I used to sell Standard electrical parts for Brookdale Auto Supply in New Jersey which is now P&A/NAPA back in the 70's and purchased many myself over the years and never experienced any problems. These are just as well made or better than ever! Go get 'em...the price is right!

I bought a used Jeep and I spent countless hours troubleshooting electrical problems. I had two of the original relays partially fail which is a real pain especially when you swap them around with good relays and unaware. It all “clicked” when my horn would work sometimes then not other times and the same with the Jeep starting and not starting (the previous owner ran a dip switch straight to the starter, which didn’t help troubleshoot someone else’s mess). This is 10 second fix on a Jeep, just pop the hood and open the PDC box. This relay is the same for several components on a Jeep so it’s nice to keep a spare.

I have a 2004 ford Expedition Eddie Bauer 5.4L that was randomly dying while driving down the road multiple times daily. I never would've guessed that it would be this relay. I replaced the idle air control valve, one of the hoses coming from the intake, etc., but the problem persisted. Finally, after reading on some of the forums, I decided to try replacing this relay (it is the fuel pump relay). I really didn't think it would work, but the vehicle started right up and hasn't had the problem since. I'm amazed. Update: If you're in the same situation as me above ('04 Expedition 5.4L) and this part only temporarily fixes the problem, I recommend biting the bullet and purchasing a new fuse panel. This relay failed shortly after posting my initial review. At that point, I tried another new relay and still no start. I then ordered a new fuse panel ($400) and the problem hasn't returned. The fuse panel isn't difficult to replace. It took me about 30 minutes. There are videos on YouTube.

Cheap in both price and the feel of the product. I guess if it does the job who cares. It does feel very lightweight compared to the old one I was replacing. But it's a relay and it works so 4 stars.

I loved the customer support. They were helpful & friendly. I mistakenly bought this relay as a replacement for an '03 Corolla ac clutch relay, but found that this wasn't the correct fit (it turned out that I could make it work by removing the middle of the three pins, but I didn't realize that until later.) Because I messed up, they gave me a no hassle refund. Best service around.

Thought it would fix the car. But ended up trading it in.

This relay is the real deal. Same style relays majority do not work on a Gilroy Indian Chief. This one’s works perfectly! I wish I had known this before buying the other flunkers!

Perfect to sell when the Amazon return policy is 30 days. This product went bad in a year, and now I'm only using oem because this can't happen again. Ugh! It's nice to be able to trust a product not to go bad when it's cold outside and you're trying to start the car...
