Did I miss something?

 

Now, boys , play nicely now.

 

Sorry I haven't been back sooner. Still working on the problem. I did find a post that was useful. https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/how-...rmation-59520/.
According to this the placement of the relay is specific. I decided to completely dismantle my fuse box to make sure I didn't break anything. The top "half" is actually 4 pieces. I'm posting pictures in a minute. Got it apart and cleaned. No problems I can see. I'll post my progress later. Thanks

 

Here are the pics.

 

so, we were wasting our time, you didn't read anything we posted.

It still is not your problem?

 

Yes I have read. Been very busy, sorry. I appreciate the help. I'll have more time later. Thanks.

 

Wow. So after all this analysis, and actual physically testing, showed that the placement did not matter.

I would have had the recall work done.

We should probably edit that how-to.
