Loud wiper relay - alternatives?

Post by 8Jb9 »

While browsing for a replacement A/C relay to put in the BSI it became evident that there are "normal" relays, and silent relays.

The wiper relay is really bothering when on intermittent because of the loud click it makes. Judging from the knowledgebase entry it should be an easy swap - or at least no worse than the A/C relay.

Are there any of you that could take some pictures of the relay from other angles, or chime in with experience and suggestions?

Yes, it's semi MUX. But she who must be obeyed doesn't it when I crank up the radio.

And since I'm opening the BSI anyway I figured I might as well give it some thought.
