Power Antenna Relay
Anyone know is there's a way to fix a bad power antenna relay? I spent $20 on a new mast, just to find that my motor isn't working, and that the relay is bad... but they cost $70 from Mazda.
Anyone know whether there's a replacement available for the relay that's inside the relay box?

I wasn't talking about that. I was talking about the stock relay box that's on the antenna itself.
My signal inversion relay works fine...

You can wire in a generic automotive relay and relay socket from allelectronics.com for $4.40. The relay draws 135 mA while I think the stock one draws 100 mA. Hopefully fine. It can put out up to 30 amps to the antennae. Pretty simple to wire in directly, or the site also sells connectors if you want to use those. One of those relays has been triggering my room's air conditioning reliably for almost a year now.
