I can't get pins in enough on back side for reading

 

So you are removing the entire relay and probing the relay sockets then not trying to disassemble and take the cover off of the relay itself.?

If you now have power at pin 87 then either you missed landing the probes before or there is a marginal connection. Try moving that relay socket and wiring harness around while you probe 87 for power. Then same with the fuse to see if the voltage bounces around.

Please explain this further.

My probes wont give a reading from the back side of the relay.

 

It is a brand new relay as of today. when i want to test the wires gong to the relay i take it apart.

 

unless you have any final advice, i need to hang it up until tomorrow. thank you so much.

 

We can pick this back up when your ready but you just pull the relay out of the socket without opening the relay up and you probe the socket "holes" with your meter just like when you tested the fuse socket holes.

Alright, good morning. I have 20 mph winds here, so this may be a short day to work on the truck.

 

Are we working on your truck today?

Sure, stop on by.

All kidding aside. I sure hope so. Might need to take a break between gale force winds.
