Well Thanks for the advice.....I pulled off the cover to the relay and pinched off the contacts and it Fired right up after a couple cranks.....seems to be running fine....Many Many thanks!! Really didn't want to have to go the mechanic route....So I will order up new relays and be back in business.....Now to figure out why the rear and side running lights stay on......but thats another day..!!
