Question Relays?

What are these relays for? The wires goes to the bottom of the fuse box.

Oh my god. Don't touch those relays. They are for the rocket launcher and passenger seat ejection options. OK OK I'm just kidding. I don't have them on my truck so they are for something that has been added to the truck. Do you have extr running lights or any other electrical things like that?

Rick he's in Mexico, does it snow down there
But that's the kinda of stuff he needs to look into. Chase the wire from the solenoids, see where they go.

Exclamation

Well, thanks to every body for the replies. Cuda you really scare me, come on!!.I don have extra running lights or any other electrical things. I tried to chase the wire from the solenoids, and see where they go, but as I said they go into the bottom of the fuse box, should I take it out and check them or are there any other form.
Action:I dont think that it ever have had running a plow. Glass: It also doesnt have any new lights or aftermarket cab lights. 97HD, you are right they look like thouse of the upgraded headlight harness, but I put that near to the drivers side battery, but maybe the truck already has it and I didnt notice till now ??. How can I test them which are its function, because they are one piece, no like the others in the box fuses or that for the trailer ?(outside rear to the box).

Thanks again

Yes I have an aftermarket alarm but has its own relays. No remote. Is it difficult to remove the fuse box?

I bet they are for the lights also!

https://www.ford-trucks.com/article/...r_Brights.html

Check this article out.
Tells you how to rewire the lights so you dont have the netorious ford blinking headlights.
That looks just like about the right setup that it would be for the lights.
You'd honestly never know unless you did some hardcore wire tracing.

Looks like they did a good job.
They didn't line then up good enough for my eye not to catch it to tell it wasn't factory though.

And by the way, if its not for the lights.
It's for the turbo boost. (gotta love knightrider)
