(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) I've never had it jumper'd it because it's just too easy to run a solid red wire from a fuse 4 inches away! So I haven't tested that. Frankly it should work fine with a jumper!!!!! But it won't without it!!

Really, run a solid red from a hot 12v fuse to the "30" terminal and ground the metal canister. It's as easy as installing a double blade adapter, or soldering the wires together... you guys do solder right? It's the only permanent way... IMHO.

I have seen some replacement relays that are plastic. Haven't used 'em.

Good luck!
