The flasher relay is common and just take it to a NAPA for a standard blinker/emergency relay

 

Try Kerry Wittig (sp?), a member here. Don't remember his screen name thou. Sorry.

He sells in the ads above and on eBay and has an auction going right now; scan for "Ferrari" and "308."

Email him "off line" but thru eBay and he will probably deal direct with you.

 

Bosch sold their relay business to Tyco in 2005 and now named TE Connectivity

Bosch 0 332 204 101 (with the orange diagonal stripe on the case) which became New Bosch 332 209 151 (in a larger black plastic case) which is now the Tyco V23234-A0001-X037 12V 40 AMP SPDT (purple case) 40 AMP / 12 vdc / SPDT Relay

Tyco pn V23234-A0001-X037 or Bosh pn 0 332 209 151 can be bought from THEELECTRICALDEPOT.COM for $5.79


Bosch 0 332 014 113 (with no marking on the case) which became Bosch 332 019 151 (in a larger black plastic case) which is now the Tyco V23234-C0001-X006 12V 40 AMP SPST (brown case)

The relays can also be bought from http://www.perfectengine.com and Wes-Garde with a $50 total min purchase.

The above information is from the Testarossa Cross Reference Thread. A Testarossa uses the same relays as a 308.

Holy cow, thanks for this awesome information. You're a life saver. Well, at the very least, a time saver. You've earned my vote as member of the year. Thanks again.

 

That WAS a great post..thanks!

It will probably be more searchable in this thread going forward, than the other 'cross reference" one.

 

Glad that the information helped. Over the last several days I have been tracing down electrical issues and decide to install Birdmans fuse box. I then looked at the relays and decided to upgrade them with modern sealed relays and do a LED light upgrade. The number looked familiar so checked my Testarossa files and found a file on relays so it was just a quick cut and paste. I should have my new relays & LED lights Monday.

Bosch Group Company: www.hc-cargo.com could be of help.

 

that's a sticky worthy post!

I call BS on that call handlers response at rocksuto's claim of not selling bosch relays, I've got a box full of a variety bosch relay's in the bosch box!

was not aware bosch sold to tyco, not fond of that as tyco relays in my experience don't last nor put up with the harsh environment like the bosch relays have. I also keep all the old metal ones and will rebuild them when needed, but only if the coil isn't fried, contacts and solder joints are simple - the bulk of where they fail. on the diode circuit ones diodes can be replaced as well.

 

All the relays can be found at Mouser's and Digikey on line. All you need to know is the type and the current handling capabilities.

OR:

Great site for relays and information about Tyco relays.

Go to: http://www.itcelectronics.com/linecard.php

click on AMP, then click on Relays,Switches and sensors, then click Automotive under the relay picture, then click View product details, then click •Power Relay F4 / VF4, Mini ISO, Plug-In (PDF, English) go to page 3. All the types we use are there by Form A,C etc. Then you can go back and order what you need.

A lot of clicking but it's all there.

newark is another source for electronic components too, usually shuffle between the three depending on who has what.

 

Over the the years I've accumulated lot of different relays that I think I should sort them out as I don't even know what I've got. all I know is, somewhere in there I got an extra hazard/signal relay for the QV.

Great useful post Jim.

Many Thanks!

 

I found the Italamec relay today from NAPA, listed as AR385 (made by Echlin). It is half the size as the original, but the numbers next to the pins were exactly the same. I put it in my '79 GTS, and now my blinkers and flashers work normally. I actually ordered the flasher relay for a 2000 VW Cabrio, which can be cross referenced at other parts stores. Price was $28.

 

Would you happen to know if this relay would work in a 1985 308QV?

 

Make sure you post this in the parts xref thread.

 

I did the same thing recently on my QV Euro. Take a look a this thread and see if this is useful information...

I had to replace some Bosch style relays for the starter safety system on my zero turn mower and found them at a nearby audio equipment supplier for a fraction of the cost at the mower dealer. Apparently they are used in after market car audio systems. They have been working well for years.

Not a cross reference but does this help?
