renix starter relay problem

[renegade_z71]

i have a 88 jeep xj and i was trying to find someone that can tell me how to use the bosch starter relay inplace of the factory one. the bosch relay is what is used on the 91 and never jeeps. i have a wiring diagram for the bosch piece. if no one knows what is done to switch over does anyone have a wiring diagram for the renix style relay? i have read numerous times that the older relay is prone to failure and at 30+ dollars a relay for the old style and less than 10 bucks for the bosch style i would prefer to upgrade and save 20 or more dollars and not have this an issue.

ya know what, my relay was just corroded and loose, i cleaned everything up, tightened the wires and that fixed the problem, i have an 89. other than that i couldnt tell you how to switch em.

thanks i ended up just buying a new relay and replacing the starter. the starter sounded horrible after it went swimming
