Manta Relays

[neuropel]

Manta Relays - can anyone point me in the right direction as to which relay goes to which socket? My car had two relays, and they both look identical as far as pin configuration. BUT, one had a rivet through it from the PO's battery tray repair. I have relays from a parts car - they look nothing like the ones I pulled out. When I pulled them I had planned to immediately put them in place of the old ones, but I got called away unexpectedly and now I can't remember which one went where. One has a red fuse on the side. The other looks identical but without the fuse. Can't find much of anything about them in the service manual. Car is a 74 Manta, automatic. Perhaps it doesn't matter which one goes where, but I'm asking first.

The one with the fuse is an "accessories" relay, either for fog lights or heated back window . . . that should help some.

...Otto, you're one of a kind! That made my day.
