Should be able to buy them at most parts stores. For the mean time to test,
you can use any of the other relays in the fuse box. They are all the same.

Thanks for the words of wisdom Brian.
I'm going out to try checking the fan shortly. I did notice some damage to
one pin in the fuse box under the fan relay.
Is the relay available in the secondary market or only from the dealer?

Again Thanks
Bill
