Loren:

The relay in your photo is probably the "refrigerator 12-volt heater relay" on Bentley 97.33b. That is its usual location on Westies without an aux battery. Does it have 5 wires? Three red, one black, one red/black? If this matches, then the out-of-sight relay is probably the "battery cutout relay" on Bentley 97.34a. This assuming your aux battery was factory. But the wire colors don't seem to match in the photo--single red/white going to the + battery post....

But try to match wires to Bentley and you can figure it out. If your aux battery wasn't factory, then you'll have to trace everything. Making a wiring diagram as you go will really help.
