Item eBay said fits did not work on my car
I purchased a relay switch for my Acura TL 2011 and though eBay said it would fit it eventually resulted in a no start to my car meaning this relay was not the correct one. The relay was supposed to be fro a fuel pump and upon replacing it I got a no start issue with my car. Check the numbers properly ebay so others don't have to go through what I went through. Thank You

Just a thought.
Relays are pretty basic. If the parts look identical (when comparing the old one with the new one) they should just work. It may be possible that either the new relay is faulty but still correct, or something else is the issue entirely.
Not sure what your mechanical level is or experience with this sort of thing, but if you aren't 100% sure the relay is the issue, may want to get some help in troubleshooting, especially if a second attempt at a relay replacement also fails.

OP1 year agoAmerican Companies are also in China, as well as countless number of companies from all over the world, all in China! So really, is it fair to say things like; Made In China, or Chinese stuff? Criminals come in all shapes and sizes.

·1 year agoFor the most part, chinese sellers sell junk. It is a bit interesting how their factories work. You can buy the same exact product in different grades.
When you go to an electronics factory in person to set up a business arrangement, you choose which grade product you want to purchase in bulk. The lowest grade stuff gets sold dirt cheap so the chinese sellers get that stuff for resale.
The higher grade parts usually are purchased by companies that are from other countries, and/or companies putting it directly into their product as part of a final product so they are not selling that part individually.

·1 year agoYes, there's a lot of stuff made in China today.
But, sometimes where you buy the items depend on the quality of the items.
Auto parts you buy here is cheap made stuff, compared to what you buy at an auto parts store.

·1 year ago@kattkounty Yeah I feel ya..
I've bought some car parts here too and on other sites.
To be honest I always take their "it will fit your car" claims with a grain of salt. I always verify fit on other sites.
I hope you returned for a refund..
