Looks like a fridge relay. We have one behind the drivers seat on the Devon, one fuse does the fridge and one does the water pump.

Split charge relay of some kind plus fuses for leisure circuits I would guess.

Pull off the spade connector on number 87 relay terminal, use a bulb or voltmeter between the now empty terminal 87 on the relay and a clean earth point. The voltmeter should read zero (bulb not illuminating) until the engine has started when the voltmeter should read battery voltage or bulb now on.
