Got two electrical issue on 1010 - have two relays gone missing, actually, and thought I'd reach out to the group for help to identify what SHOULD be there. There are four relays on the later cars, under the left end of the dash - L to R these are for 1) turn signal flasher - small round can type, 2) hazard lights, 3) horn, and 4)headlights. The photos shows the second and third relays, SIPEA and FIAMM, respectively, which I believe are the OEM units. The first (small round can) and forth relays are the ones that are missing. Any ideas what these units should be?!
Seems like the light relay - "#4" - should be a CARELLO part, like the 2 relays near the fuse box, possibly. That said, both the SIPEA and CARELLO relays have mouting holes on 60mm centers, so can't rule much out that way.
Not sure but have heard that early cars did not have a light relay (It does not appear on the standard mangusta wiring diagram). Appreciate any help, regards to all, Nate

Nate, Left most is a cylindrical part with a fuse attachment, then a larger SIPEA module, the flasher is actually just hanging there. Tried to send high res pics but the email just came back.

Thanks Denis, those are great shots. The second pic clearly shows that relay #4 is a CARELLO part. Bad news is these CARELLO units seem impossible to find, new or used. (Googling them turns up amzingly little info!)....probably go with an appropriate Bosch part there.

I assume your signal flasher is the 'floating' unit shown towards the top of the middle pic (wires should be yellow/black, red/black, and brown/black). If that's the case, what is the first unit on the left (i.e., the one that has the external fuse)? I don't have enough loose wires to feed both Red Face!
