I later found out it was a knock off. It does have good reviews, so i gave it a shot.
Has anyone had good luck with this model or should I return it for a OEM unit?
I'm considering having the original rebuilt as Preventive Maintenance.
Thank you in advance for any feedback, love the forum.

I can replace the relays but can't do anything about the smaller pins. If you have this RCM I would slightly bend the pins so that they make better contact in the car's connectors.
You've been warned!
I need to buy a new RCM to replace the original A1705450305 of my Crossfire. While It is still going good even if, 10 Years ago, I had to resolder it after a mystery no start and later on, to change the air pump relay.

I want to keep it has my spare, in the trunk of the car as soon the new one will be home. So, the new one will be the one I will use until it fail . . . If it will !

I want to be sure to get the best quality and not a cheenese muck off. FCP has the best warranty, even if the price is more than some other supplier.

Which source or brand do You recommended ?
