Relay Under Hood

Ok, mounted on the driver's side fenderwell is a row of 4 relays. The front one is green and is the fuel pump, then there are two black ones, then another green one. My problem is, I am wanting to know what the last green one is. The previous owner went nuts under the hood with wire nuts and splicing. I have all of the problems worked out, except I don't know what this goes to. There is no longer a relay plugged into the plug, but there was one there at one time.

Are you talking about inside or outside the passenger compartment?

ok, starting from the firewall and working forward you have....
1. Auxiliary power relay
2. WOT cutout relay
3. EEC Power relay
4. Fuel Pump relay

these relays are in a "box" for lack of better words. Attached to the outside of the box between No. 2 and 3 is the Tach Test Connector. Attached at the end of the box (closest to the front of the engine compartment) are the VIP Test Connectors and the DSS Test Connector.

Hope this helps,
