Thanks Jim! I'll look into it. I think some auto parts stores have relay testers... maybe I can get it tested? Or maybe I can use my other car's battery in the garage to test it.

I'll probably start with the switch, if it's reliable, then I'll investigate the relay, as it would seem the next most likely component. It definitely behaved like a switch or something that wasn't making contact somewhere in the circuit.

Hopefully I'll be able to figure it out... it was a little intermittant, and sometimes those intermittant things are hard to chase down!
