I need advice on the 1100 starter relay please...

The bike sometimes fail to start. When the ignition is switched on, all the noises are there.

What I have done..

The starter switch has been opened and cleaned.
The copper nut on the starter has been cleaned and confirmed tight.
The side stand switch checked and cleaned - later on cut as it was thought to be the problem.

How do I open the starter relay (yellow) to clean inside / inspect inside. The outer points appear to be still in good condition,

or do I just replace it?

Your advise will be appreciated.
