Not having a 90, and not seeing the panel, what does not work when you
unplug the relay?
Fuel pump ?
A/C?
Interior lighting and accessories?
Etc.

The relay closest to the bulkhead is the Retractor Relay, the other the
TNS Relay. The Retractor Relay feeds the headlight-motors, the TNS Relay
feeds the ECU, Taillights, Panel lamps and audio.

Thanks for all the information. Looks to be the headlight retractor
relay.

There are three relays behind the cover:

The one behind the two (and closest to the fender) is the headlight relay

Of the two closest to the clutch master cylinder, the one towards the
front of the car is the TNS relay. I don't know what "TNS" means but
this relay controls the ECU, tail lights, panel lights and audio.

The other relay, closest to the clutch master cylinder and closest to
the firewall is the headlight retractor relay.

Hope this helps,

Ken
