    Yes I did, once you pull the relay its pretty strait forward. Pull the relay, and twist a real thin with from one terminal to other, reinstall and you set. Obviously it is right around a year for me and no issues. I initially tried the stuffing the relay to force contact, but that was not reliable at all. Jumper it is very easy and worth while.

    Just found this and am so stoked it's worth a bump. I could have soldered mine but I just cut a piece of credit card, folded it in half and shoved it in there. It's just long enough that the plastic housing on the relay holds it in there tight. If it doesn't work after a while I will go back in and solder it but plenty of guys are getting by with paper in there so hopefully it's good. Entire process took less than 10 minutes
