When I was replacing my fuel filter I noticed a red wire that was cut. I couldn't find the other end (maybe it screws in somewhere?) I start tracing it and it goes to a inline fuse. It comes out of the fuse still red and into a relay (? says 12V 20Amps) that's mounted to the Right Shock Well. There are 3 other wires that come out of this relay: 1 yellow, 2 black). The yellow wire runs towards the passenger compartment and under the hood latch and through a hole to the drivers side (into the car's cabin). I haven't traced it from there yet. The other two black wire I found shoved in a hole. One has a flat connector on it with the other end connector to it still on it. The other black wire is just cut at the end. The red and black wires are pretty long, but I haven't found anywhere where they go. The only thing that I've noticed on my car that doesn't work is the windshield washer pump. Please help!

I couldn't find anything about the relay in the Haynes manual. I spent about two hours reading the wire diagrams in it.

IS it possible that someone in the past had put auxillary fog lamps on this car at some point?
may have hastily torn them off the car and left the relay behind. or possibly left overs from a car alarm.

It's entirely possible. The Haynes manual is a little vague when it comes to electrical stuff. Thanks for your help
