Should have talked to my mechanic, but noooo I figured I'll just unplug the things plugged into the relay board, clean everything all up and reinstall it, well lots of smoke, evacuate the house, move cars out of the driveway to get the teener outside so I don't lose the house as well! Could see flames and of course the wife is now hysterical saying helpful things at the top of her lungs like "do something" get the battery unhooked and blow out the flames which were melted burning pieces of the relay board. Car is okay, smoke has cleared, only the relay board is damaged and now I can't get the last plug unplugged as it seems to be melted into the board, help me please! Anyway my momma said there would be days like this. Thought I would share my experience with everyone, I think it takes me out of the loop of guys you ask for help! Maybe we should have a dummy of the month same as car of the month, not trying to get the misery loves company bandwagon afloat but please tell me I'm not the only one who has fuched up!
