Default What is this fuse/relay for????????????????????

What is the single yellow relay that is tucked up in the passenger footwell, It is clipped to something right up under the dash?

It sit alone right behind the glove box?

Basically when i turn the car over and it fires, this relay carries on clicking for a few seconds????????

The car cut out a few times tonight and thought this might be the problem

Isnt that for the fuel pump? Im sure theres a few relays behind there & the one with the fuse on it is the fuel pump relay. I stand to be corrected.

This one is on its own on the side of the footwell

Start the car up & switch everything on & then take the relay out of its holder & see what happens.
