Looking for directional relay on 1972 911

Hi,
My directionals stopped working on my 1972 911. I am trying to find the relay to see if its the problem, but cannot find it.
Please let me know where to look.
Thanks,
David

If you open the frunk and facing front to back, look past the RIGHT side hood shock...lots of wiring and harnesses in that area and you should see both a short round relay and a tall rectangular one...I am confident it is one or the other. Not run to reach in there is you have the original square fuel vapor canister and hoses in place.

I only have one round plastic relay in that location or at least what I can see. Its a 5 prong, part #911.615.109.01. This is a general relay. Could this be the one? The specific directional relay is listed as a 3 prong and has a different part number listed on a Porsche parts schematic.

This is the flasher/turn signal relay in my 73. It is a 3 prong. The tubing beside it is connected to the vapor canister mentioned above.
