2002 relay for rear hatch

[wakehead]

I have a 2002 Sante and one of my rear hatches wasn't working from the power button on the side. Turns out it was the relay. Where can I buy a new relay. Is it a simple standard part. Here are pics.

auto parts store will have that relay

Where is this relay located?

Rear trunk -- under the hatch. Kinda awkward to see, but it is directly under the rear hatch button on my 2003 Ski 206. Take all the stuff out of the trunk and get your head down inside and look. Take the old relay to any competent auto parts store (I like NAPA) and they can match up the relay easy enough.

Found it! Do you know if there is a relay for both sides? I couldn't seem to find one on port side. I dunno if it's the relay that's my issue or not. Do you happen to know what each one of those wires on the relay goes to?

I found a wiring diagram. It's a basic 5 pin relay. The black goes to a ground, the red across from it is from the button/switch. The other two bigger red one goes to battery but I'm not sure where and the other goes to the actuator. I haven't figured out why they don't work yet but I'll be checking the relay tomorrow.

Take the wires from 30 and 87 on the relay... those should be the 12VDC+ and other is the wire going to the actuator. There should be 12VDC+ at the wire on 30. If you take those wires off the relay and jump them together quickly it should power the actuator. If the actuator is good it will work and that tell you the relay is possibly bad.

Same thing with the coil side of the relay. 85 and 86 are from the switch. You can check for 12VDC as you push the switch. If you don't see 12VDC then likely the switch or wiring to the relay is the issue.

Thos relays are very simple and common to find at most parts stores.
