Hello,

It should be a regular 4 or 5 pin relay that should pull straight out. If you are having problems pulling it out that would indicate rust or corrosion that is holding it in place. ou might want to consider replacing the BUS bars or the fuse box all together. But to be able to see what damage there is you will need to get the relay out. You might want to consider grabbing ahold of it with a small pair of channel lock pliers and try to gently coax it to come out that way. When you are doing this, as when ever you are working on electrical on your vehicle, make sure that the negative battery cable is disconnected from the negative battery terminal. Please get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex
