John suggested a relay may have gone bad?

It turned off for 4 seconds then turned on. It did this twice. Third time it quit. Motor tested good at advanced auto. So its a power issue. Do relays go bad that quick? If so can i switch them around to make it work until i can buy one?

    If shorted it should have blown the fuse! If you find a compatible relay that doesn't hinder your car! Jump at relay for testing! A test light is in order for this! Check your grounds also!

    Who is John, and how does he relate to this question? What motor? You are as vague as quantum physics to an artist.
