1985 RX-7 Check Relay 8173-67-740A

Need some insight on this one. My 85 GSL needs a new check relay which is Mazda part number 8173-67-740A. The issue I am having is that this is faulty, and causes my dash warning lights to not work properly. Mazda no longer makes this relay, but I wanted to know if anyone knows the replacement for this part.

If you'd be willing to part with it, I'd appreciate it.

Still wondering what others have done to replace this part as well.

Talking

Any update on the relay?

Anyone else have some insight as to a replacement for this check/choke relay? I'm sure there is one out there somewhere!
