That is a regular Bosch/ now known as Tyco Single Pole, Double Throw 30/40 amp relay. It is available at any auto parts store or stereo shop.

https://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q176/juvius/hazards/?action=view¤t=emerwir.gif I need to do some research for you, but at first look, I think that those are Double Pole Single Throw relays. Been a long time since I studied relays on schematics. Give me a minute. Looking at the diagram it looks like a DPST relay, but both poles are connected together. The Bosch relay should do what you need it to do.

thanks again

https://s136.photobucket.com/albums/q176/juvius/relay/?action=view¤t=IMG_2226.jpg Retake the above picture, somewhere on your camera there is a picture of a flower. This is known as the Macro setting. It is used to take close up pictures.

Instructions for the Macro mode function is on page 81 if you have a paper manual, and on page 85 if it is a PDF file. The manual for your camera.

i'm working on them.... kids have dropped my camera a few times and sometimes i have to give it a good smack to get it to work....

It could be worse, they could do like mine and lose the camera.

You will have to use 2 relays to replace one of these relays. The GREEN / WHITE and the GREEN/ YELLOW are connected together when the relay is energized, when the relay is at rest those 2 wires are not connected. I will draw you a picture. Might be later tonight or in the morning.
Don't forget to turn the Macro function off. It does not take good far away pictures when it is on.

no. they are all on there own pin. i think out of the new pictures there is a decent picture of the wires going to the pins.... the one pin where there isn't a wire going in has a tab that solders to the metal case wich in turn is grounded when the relay is screwed down onto the car.

The above picture will replace one of the older relays. You will have to build 2 of these.
