You're lucky it was a Saab and not a Volvo, especially a Belgian-assembled
Volvo. Volvo occasionally did really bright things such as locate apparently
oversensitive relays near high-heat sources or near batteries that seemed to
give off far too much acid. Meanwhile, I don't recall if I ever had to
actually REPLACE any relays on the one Saab 99 I had, but I sure had to
remove, clean contacts and replace them every so often. ;-)
