Starter Relay Replacement - 2006 SX210

[Billtex2000]

Does anyone have any experience replacing starter relays in a 2006 era SX210? The problem I've been having with my port motor not starting (no crank, no click) has come back. Some further investigation on the forum tells me that the problem may be the relays. I'm going to attempt to change them out and I'm hoping someone has done this and can give me some tips or let me know what to watch out for. I don't want to just start unscrewing things without a plan of attack. Couldn't find anything on Youtube. They are mounted in the electrical /fuse boxes on the forward wall of the engine bay.

Not sure how different the 210 -230 series are. Maybe @UnorthodoxCreations has an answer for this.

I'm presuming that I need to remove the whole fusebox from the engine compartment wall and open it from the back. I'm not sure if it is screwed in or not. I don't think that there is any way it could be bolted in with no access from behind. Once I get it off and open it, I think it will be self explanatory.

If it’s like the newer ones then yes, remove & there will be bolts holding the back cover on that you’ll have to remove to get to the guts.

Just did the Port relay on my 230 last year, and now my Starboard relay is intermittently giving me problems. Already have the relay for it, haven’t changed it. Mine is designed a bit different, but I’d guess the procedure is similar. Fairly straightforward on mine, I’m sure the 210’s are too.

If you haven’t seen this I would guess it is similar -

It’s cake. I thought it was my relay but needed a new starter.
