    When you pull it it is easy to tell if its bad...the copper connecting strip on one side will be disconnected.
    not sure what i pulled out but it didnt look like a relay. I dont know how to put pictures on here so i cant show you but it looked more like something for the temp. It had to screws and was shaped like a rectangle and hollow in the middle.

    Same here, it'll stop for no apparent reason.

    I move the selector (heat/A-C/defrost) back & forth & it'll usually start back up again...

    I looked at your photo and what you've got pulled is the Fan Resistor and not a relay. The resistor measures the flow of air across the air box and then adjusts the fans speed. If this is bad the fan won't turn on. Note that it could be your fan motor is bad.
