Re: whats this?
Mine's a 70A relay with wiring and fuse to match - the one above only has puny wiring so wouldn't be anything power hungry.

Re: whats this?
coolant 43 box on early vans
the relay with the fuse is for the electric fan on diesel turbo or 1.7d engine ( bigger fan ) relay is for full speed , they use normal wiring for low speed
