Looking for indicator relay and someone handy with a soldering iron.

OSI

Hi all,

Well it seems the indicator relay has gone in my '03 Hyundai Coupe. The entire right hand side indicators are stuck on permanently, even with no key in the ignition and will until turn off until I pull the fuse, so it's understandably dangerous for me to drive it (especially as no one in this country seems to understand hand signals).

Apparently this is a common enough problem with the coupes but one that Hyundai themselves won't acknowledge. That's the bad news, now for the really bad news, the relay is attached to the car's BCM meaning that to replace it properly I would need to replace the whole BCM, something Hyundai are very happy to do, for a mere €700 or so euro which is not something I can afford. Now for the better news, there is a workaround to this that involves desoldering the old relay and soldering a new one in its place. The relay in question is this one, but I don't have a credit card so I can't order online.

So the questions are:

1. Does anyone now where I might be able to get hold of one of these within Ireland.

2. Does anyone now where I could go to get the soldering job done in South Dublin. People on other forums have suggested a TV or Radio repair shop but I wasn't even aware there was any of these left at this stage.

Thanks for you help,

You could try Hamiltons just off Capel St, they're an old-school auto electricians. I've used them before, i've always found them good and cheapish. Ph: 01-4755157

Sounds good, would they be able to get the relay in as well do you think?
