He found the relay in a wrecking yard, but you can also order one from your favorite vendor. I don't have a part number, but MB uses these relays extensively, so go look in your fusebox to see which has the corresponding terminal numbers and get the part number off of that one.

The 86 terminal is wired to the temp switch on the t-stat housing.

The 85 terminal is wired to a 12v keyed source (w/inline fuse).

The 87a terminal is wired to one side of the snipped violet wire.

The 30 terminal is wired to the other side of the snipped violet wire.

The 87 terminal is not used.

He snipped the violet wire approximately 2" back from the relay, which required trimming the harness cover a bit.

This is a very effective modification. Highly recommended.

Where is everyone getting the 12 volt keyed power from? What size inline fuse are you using?

Thanks,

Chris
