Relay 30 Fault

[mikeshe]

Daughters Mk1 Galaxy, W Reg, packed up yesterday afternoon after all the local Ford dealers had closed. She got Green Flag out and they dropped her car off at our house....... well what are Dad's for!!

 

I removed relay 30 and made up a wire with spade connectors on the ends and bridged terminals 30 & 87. The car started up straight away so that confirms the relay has had it.

 

Now more than likely Ford's won't have one in stock and will have to order it in. In the meantime would it be safe to use the car with the wire in instead of a relay? This would just be a temporary measure until the relay is fitted.

 

Does anyone know the Ford part number of this relay?

 

Thanks.
