The relay you found is for the heated screen. What are your symptoms?

Thanks dude i've sorted it now and i was wondering if it was the heated screen relay down there as i know they draw big amps and has purple wire.

It turned out to be the multiplug that joins car to engine loom, the prongs were loose but enough to work every now and then its sent us mad the last few days lol.
