Ok, we stand corrected - another ******** idea from Ford.

Here is how you get around that. You'll need some soldering skills and relays. All you need to do is wire this to your old fuse block after removing the board mounted relay(s). Or you could use a fuse/relay box for multiple relays.

what use to cost less than $25.00 to replace a relay now cost $300.00 and Ford has a better idea FOR WHO???

Update on adding the relay block:

Connect into the harness prior to the fuse block & cutting power to the switched side of the board mounted relays. Then just use the external relay block.

That's why I like Chevy/GMC so much more. They just make easier to maintain vehicles. IMO even Chry/Jeep/Dodge I think does a better job as far as domestics go and yes I would loosely consider them all domestic.
