Solenoids, relays and fuses are the switching components of the electrical system; a failed relay can prevent a system from operating while a starter solenoid failure prevents the engine from cranking. Diagnosis to pinpoint the exact faulty component is often quicker than the replacement itself. SMART fortwo solenoid, relay or fuse repair costs $76–$336.
