I remember tighed once did RCM Fix and swaps for the cost of mats and shipping.

When the contacts are burnt then the relay is ruined. The contacts need to be domed and highly polished, scratching them with a file does not do the trick at all.
Ala_xfire has replaced a burnt relay before and they can be purchased for about $3.50 or so with a minimum purchase of about $20.
The replacement details are in a link I did earlier in this thread.

Do not let the pump run all the time as it will burn out and cost you BIG bucks to replace.
