2000 Sierra 2500 AC relay socket loose?

[hgarraway]

Problem: When truck warms up the AC compressor disengages.

 

Work around: I opened the relay/fuse box over front driver tire and swapped relays with starter since they are same. I noticed that if I put twisting pressure on relay in AC socket it engages and I can feel the relay click. It does this with either relay inserted in the AC socket . With pliers I slightly twisted the four relay pins to make a tighter connection and ,for now, it seems to be fixed.

 

My question is : Is this a recognized problem and if so is there a better fix?

I have not seen this on a truck. The only fix I know of if the terminal the relay plugs into is spread open would be to replace the fuse box assembly. It's not repairable.
