G'day folks.
I have this ongoing (left) turn indication problem with my '98 Ferrari F355 Spider since I bought it a few months ago. After replacing a few parts without success, I thought I'd change the turn relay. Lo and behold, it turned out to be an Alfa part (SDC B883 46466571). Whether this is original fitment, I haven't been able to confirm.

The symptoms are intermittent variation of flash speed (only on the left hand side) and when I put the car in reverse, the reverse lights start blinking, too  ???

I'd probably end up paying $250 upwards for an "official Ferrari part" and was wondering if there was a local source for the Alfa part in Sydney (at a much cheaper price). I'm in the St George/Sutherland Shire region. Or perhaps if there is a good online source for Alfa parts?

Grazie mille!
Cheers
Ian

Hi Ian,
I'm sorry, I can't help you specifically with this relay, but a search of the Fiat EPER (Spare parts) catalogue suggests this relay 46466571 was fitted to:

1. Alfa 166 (1998 ~ 2007)
2. Lancia Kappa (1994 ~ 2001).

Fortunately, the Alfa 166 was imported into Australia, so trying to find this relay should hopefully be easy. Try contacting some of the club sponsors or on-line auctions to see if anyone is wrecking this model.
For example, ASV Europarts is wrecking one in Brisbane atm

I hope the info is helpful - Good luck with your search.

Thanks, Frank. That's excellent news that it was fitted to the 166.

I'm not sure if I'd want to risk a relay from a wrecker. I tried to contact a local Alfa dealer, but they had none in stock and, unfortunately, couldn't quote a price. I'll keep asking around, but I might have to bite the bullet and go with a part from a Ferrari parts dealer :P

Cheers
Ian.

Ha ha, it may be cheaper to buy the part for the F355 than for a 166!
