Default DME Relay

This part has been a recurring theme in maintenance posts and I tried to search, to no avail...

Can someone enlighten me? Cost? Availability? Etc...

I know I am being lazy but the wine does that...

Thanks in advance (again!).

Make sure you test the new one before using it..I have had one Original Porsche bad right out of the box, avoid the URO brand ..one Suncoast has is Made in Hungary, I had to resolder one of those and its way overpriced!!

Actually Auto Zone (NO Affiliation) has this for about $35 bucks, lifetime guarantee and as good as I have seen, O'Reillys also has it..Made in Germany for same money

Dont know if you have those stores in Paradise but they do ship!

Autozone wow ^ ! We don't have autozone in Canada but I will check with a couple local parts suppliers to see what they can bring in.

That looks like a URO DME relay, which are probably the worst out there.

No need to buy one, it'll only fail like the last one.

Just re-work the one you have and be done with DME relay failures.

If I was able to do it, you can do it too!

(or buy from sponsors)

Hey thanks! was going to look up suncoast, since they are fairly local. I'll check Auto Zone (No affiliation, either) since there are some here near paradise.

OT - Your location sounds much more interesting, unless it is your own...

<Edit>
to those who do your own, I admire you. I don't have the patience/too lazy, depending on how you look at it.

Steve@rennsport - do you sell this "enhanced" version or just for personal use?
