In the last 2 months I have had 3 of the little rectangle relays in the under hood go out.
I first had to replace the low beam relay, then the high beam, now the horn doesn't work, what the heck. I am almost 30 and could count on one hand how many of those relays I have seen bad and now 3 in 2 months, what gives?

Check the amp draw on relay and ground.

hadn't even thought of grounds, the amps are fine, there are multiple relays affected, not just that one...
That would definately make the contacts oxidize, I'll give it a check.
On the flip side, though, I bought another relay today and fixed that circuit too...
