Probably a long shot since it seems to be exclusive to Honda Legends, but I'm on the hunt for a new flasher relay as mine is kaput, looks like this   Its a "Mitsuba FR-3503", which it seems there are aftermarket equivalents Standard RY-335 and RY-339 Current options seem to be one from the US for £40, or try and find one off a Legend being broken in the UK (theres one on ebay which I've messaged) Anyone recognise this style of relay being used in anything else? Might have a cheaper/more available option? |

It may be worth trying the local motor factors or even ECP. For my 205 no one stocked the fuel pump relay online, but I got one from the motor factors for £20. Sister's Saab was the same. Bar Big Redd and other brake companies, I couldn't commonly find the slider kits easily from motor factors. I walked into ECP the other day and got them straight away for less than what the other folks charge  . ECP didn't list it on their website FWIW. |

What are the numbers on the pins? That might be a way to get the same functionality in a more standard relay, if you can find something with the same but perhaps in a different layout.

Cheers for the suggestions guys, I've bitten the bullet and ordered one from the US, I don't like driving the car without indicators (even though I am a BMW driver  ) and it seemed the quickest way Its odd, the relay doesn't have numbers for each pin like a normal one, its got letters by the pins though (E, SL, LL, SR, LR, B) I'm not sure whats so special about the Legend that Honda felt the need to use loads of one off parts but it seems to be the case so far! |

The top cover on the relay looks like it's just held on with a "barb" at each corner, I'd be tempted to open up the failed unit - if you can find a dirty contact or loose wire fix it and keep it as a spare  |
