603 pre-glow time delay relay dead again

Hi all,

Last week I had my pre-glow time delay relay go out. A $50 pulled part got me going again. Today it seems like its dead again.

I'm thinking this isn't a coincidence.

Last time the fuse looked fine, but internally the relay seemed to fail. Haven't checked this one to see exactly what is wrong, but as before the glow plug light does not come on.

Recent electrical work involved replacing the left side cluster on the dash which controlled the oil warning light. The mechanic somehow shorted it but was able to fix it by running a seperate ground line somewhere. Not sure if that is related.

Anyone know what might be causing the relay to keep going out?
