Appreciate the response just hoping someone has had the same exact issue with a solution I know I need to check every connection but its a location thing since its my daughters car which lives 150 miles away and has nobody else to help nor much money Ive talked her through replacing the relay first just to see and it only cost her $16 thanks

GOOD SAMARITANS STILL EXIST

POSSIBLE LOCATIONS TO FIND ONE

POPULAR AUTO PARTS STORE EMPLOYEE GETTING OFF WORK SOON. ALWAYS A GOOD THING TO STICK YOUR HEAD IN THE DOOR FROM TIME TO TIME. BUYING CAR WASH, AIR FRESHENERS, OIL, ETC. JUST TO BUILD A RELATIONSHIP (FOR TIMES LIKE THIS)

HIGH SCHOOL OR TECH SCHOOL AUTO MECHANICS CLASS. CALL SPEAK TO INSTRUCTOR HE MAY BE ABLE TO ASSIST IN SOME WAY OR SEND YOU A SAMARITAN.A SMALL DONATION TO THEM---$$$, CAKE, COOKIES, ETC, IS ALWAYS APPRECIATED
