I have found a new RCM for under $300 I have also checked the map sensor connector and the ground on the pump and the pump connector, I am hesitant to spend the money without being sure that's the problem. I took white cardboard and alcohol to the contacts there was a lot of burnt carbon. I would appreciate any other ideas on what I might try before buying a RCM. Thank You
The individual relays can be replaced, they are required to be de soldered and replaced.The relays are quite cheap, <$5 each.
Used RCMs can be got quite cheaply I got one for $40 plus shipping.
Turbomar used one that had a different number and it worked fine.

Relays available here.
When de soldering I think it may be smart to trim the leg as short as possible without distorting them that would make less length to be pulled through the hole while keeping them hot.
