I need to replace this relay in my JC shampoo vac and was wondering if there was a better place to buy it other than from JC? I haven't had much luck finding it online. Thanks.

Ships in 1 to 3 months?

Amazon was my first search, and right away I saw the 1-3 months.
Randy, I then did a Google search for the relay, but if you click on those 24 links you will see that it is a part that is not available and has a long lead time at almost every site.
2Biz, that last link shows available but still a shipping time of 1-4 weeks. If I can't find somewhere in stock at a reasonable price, I can just call JC. They should have it in stock.
I did my research before posting, just thought that maybe there was a place that you guys used that I didn't find in the search results.
Just a suggestion, if its so hard to find or get this relay, why don't you change the base out with another brand thats more avaliable. Theres a lot of 24vac spdt 15a relays out there. Ebay has a lot of them. I use Idec spdt relays, but the ones I use are only rated for 10a. I can usually get the relay and base for around $10 bucks on ebay....Just a thought...

I have been able to find a number of replacements-not exact- at Grainger. Usually will get in a few days.
Relays I have switched to for vacuums for instance have a better rating than the relays that came with the vacuum. Look under Electrical-relays-power relays. I use the Omron #3A354. not the one you're looking for but a start for similar relays to look at.
hope this helps

Do a cross reference search on the internet for suitable alternative or substitute from another manufacture. We’ve done that numerous times.

I do not have the shampoo vac in question. However most items within my washes can be replaced with another brand of relay, sole valve, timer, pump or whatever with a different brand. Few items need to be the exact replacement. For other relays I have 3 electrical wholesalers in town where I can go to locate relays before I head to Grainger.

JC has them in stock to ship today for $18. I just bought some from them.

I am pretty sure that this company cross referenced them for me and I bought some off of them. Worth a phone call.

I just ordered one form Amazon. We'll see how long it takes to get here. I just hope I remember this thread.
I know some of you guys just hate ordering form Coleman, but I'm often amazed at the hoops some people jump through to save $10 on a once every five year purchase.
