Is your quote fair?

A quote between $113 and $279 is inside the band where half of all Ford F-150 relay replacements landed. Below it is not automatically a bargain (a plug-in relay in the fuse box); above it is not automatically gouging (a relay integrated into a module, or a corroded connector repaired) — but both ends deserve a question.

What moves the price

Diagnosis is the value — the part is cheap; proving the relay is the cause (not the component it feeds) is the work.
Integrated relays — some are built into a module that must be replaced whole.
