2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Aftermarket headlight harness

[fox]

Just a heads up for everyone. Last year I bought an aftermarket harness to brighten up the head lights, from Summit. The harness DID help, but now the relay for the brights had failed. Guess what, no replacement to be found. !!!

Summit was very helpful and found the phone # for them, but the mail box is full, and no one answers.

Summit shows two different relays that APC uses. I need the one with the male end, this plugs into a plug.

I had the same trouble with both of my relays on my Summit harness,they don't seem to like underhood moisture very much. But after LOTS of searching and hunting at work and online I found them at work. Only about $10. 00-$11. 00 ea. Let me know and I can get you part #'s or application Monday or ship to you. You are looking for the male 4 spade (==) relays right? Should be same as mine.

Eric,
Could you get that part number and post it along with where you got them. I have had this harness for quite awhile now and would like to get a spare set to keep on hand as I travel alot and don't need the headache on the road trying to repair my lights.

It is a male spade, but the relay itself is a male end that fits into a plug.

Will try to post a picture also just to be sure.

I honestly don't remember the amperage of the Mouser relays, but I did find Hella ISO relays (Truck Guys) rated at 70A. One runs my KC Daylighters with no issues.
