'87 560SL Fuel Pump Relay Woes

Hi All,

The saga continues. I was replaced a bunch of old looking fuses with new ones because I thought it would be a good idea. When I had finished replacing about half of them I tried to start the car and it wouldn't fire. I noticed I no longer was hearing the fuel pumps prime when I turned the key. As I understand it, there's no fuse related to the fuel pump relay, so I figured the relay must have just gone bad.

I have a new one on the way, but I can't for the life of me get the old one out. I've removed the glove box, but no matter how much I wiggle on the idle relay (the one in front of the fpr) I can't get it out so that I can get to the FPR. The seem to be pretty well stuck.

First, can anyone think of what might have happened to the make the FPR spontaneously fail that would have been related to me messing with the fuses?

Second, does anyone have any tips for getting the idle relay and FPR out?

Thanks much!
George
