Hella Transflash II Relay

Im currently putting the dash back in my van and im having a problem with a fuse blowing.
It all seams to be related to a Hella Transflash II relay, part no 4JA 004 663-00.
Ive taken the relay apart and found that prior to me removing the screen some water has leaked in and managed to get into the relay , corroding part of the board inside and is now shorting.
Ive done a search on various sites and google and from what ive seen its something to do with Towing and checking the lights are working :? (may be wrong)
can anyone else shed any light on the matter and where i might be able to get a replacement :ok
If it helps i can post a couple of pics later. thanks for any forthcoming help.

Sounds like it may be the turn indicator confirmation. when you plug in a trailer you are supposed to have some sort of confirmation that it is working either visible or a beep.
