My F250's relay was failing by not always activating. (no click, no WTS) I think my RV's is just starting to do that too once in a great while, but it's not bad enough to bother replacing it yet. At least I don't take to take stuff apart to get to it to hit it with a screwdriver handle like on the truck's 7.3 GP system. Hitting it always helped it on the truck.
2 glow cycles now

You can short the two big posts on the relay if you're stranded or wanting to help verify it's a bad relay.
The controller on these trucks is very... rudimentary. If even 1 plug is loose or dead it'll cycle the relay a few times. If any of the several connections is corroded it can act up too.
