No relation to seller . A minor inconvenience is you lose originality a bit . i guess originality is important but if you actualy use your Carrier year round like me , then you have to compromise a little .

Ah, you think that diodes are the complete answer. Just wait for the first nuclear strike....the EMP will make all diodes in the region useless.
Kidding aside, glad to hear you found the problem. Perhaps you can disassemble the ebay one and cram it into the original one. But I am pretty sure there are people already selling those.

Thanks Rob . I am now on the hunt for an original looking Ford round cut off with a diode inside . Meanwhile this setup works quite satisfactorily . This new experience is an eye opener for me in older car / truck / Carrier electrics .

Talk to a local electronics shop..tell them the voltage and amperage, and they should be able to match you up with a giant diode to fit in the cover of the original relay...
Alternately. pass a new wire through the cover, and stash your diode further "downstream" but out of sight...
