it actually can be. I had a bad switch on my 91 civic that CAUSED the relay to die. What had happened was that the greese in the steering wheel joint had, over the years, picked up a lot of dust and other crap, and had gotten sticky. This caused the switch to sit too close to the metal ring, and it made rapid intermittant contact. The relay flipped on and off just as rapidly, and it didn't take long for it to die.
