"needs replacing" ok, but WHY did it start to burn out???
Perhaps the item it controls has a bad earth or is soon to fail itself ???

One's the fuel pump ,the other's injection relay .I think it was the injection relay .I have had the electrical warning light coming on and off for ages .Will see if it's cured now .
