Default EBCM relay source for TCS code 1214

Where would one acquire said relay? It looks to be a relatively easy thing to fix if I could just find a source for that little bugger.

TIA

I used him, and it has worked well for the past year.

Thanks, but personally I have no reason to pay someone to solder a new relay to a breadboard. I have functional hands, a soldering iron, and the know-how.

new relay installed! code gone!

There was one solder spot that had clearly broken loose on the old relay. I thought about just fixing the solder, and putting it back together, but I already had the new relay in hand.

~3 hour job start to finish.

Wonder how much $ you saved versus turning the car over to a dealer? A truck-load, probably.

Dealer would've replaced the entire module at $1250 for the part alone.

The relay was $2.

Dealers don't FIX things, they repalce parts.
