2000 T/A "Ignition Relay" failure This has happened twice. Engine turns over like it normally does, but won't start. I checked for fuel pressure and spark. Both good.
I had the car towed by roll-back truck to my mechanic who ran a diagnostic on the car and he told me that the "ignition relay" was bad and he replaced it.
4 weeks later the exact same problem occured. He replaced it for free, but told me that, if it happens again, something in the electrical system is surging the relay and frying it.
My question is, what can I do about this? It could happen somewhere and we could get stranded with no warning.
Any thoughts?
Thanks.......Bill
