Hi,
I've been looking at the posts on on the forum regarding Gicar relay replacement and it seems I'm not the only one having issues with these relays. Hopefully you can help me finding a correct alternative relay.
I have a 5 year old ECM Electronika (first owner) and already replaced the expensive Gicar Control box once. So after some reading on the forum it seems feasible to replace the relays.
I've desoldered them already.

There are 2x relays on the Gicar board Manufacturer is Hongfa product number is HF115F 018-2HS4 other specs are 18VDC 8A 250VAC.
I've found the specifications on the Hongfa 115F productsheet.
I'm trying to cross reference this relay to hopefully a better brand like OMRON, but unfortunately no result. It seems the 18VDC 8A 250VAC, coil resistance 810 Ohm are specific to this relay.
I'm wondering if it's necessary to meet the exact specifics to this relay or?
Are there other brand to reconsider?
I live in The Netherlands and can't source this 115F per piece.
So hopefully someone can help me out.
Thanks,
Willem
