Default Which 14089936 relay is the 87 Vette Burn Off Relay?

The 87 Vette I'm working on throws MAF sensor burn off codes..located the two relays behind the battery. Since they are both part # 14089936 - I just switched them and the MAF does the burn off process when shut down, put them back in their original location..no burn off. Obviously a bad relay....

Which relay of the two is the burn off relay? One towards outside of vehicle or the inner one. I don't have a wiring schematic to look for wire colors.

Thanks

this is a lame answer , but replace them both, they're probably the same age and may go bad shortly after each other.

The mass burn off relay has four wires, two orange wires and a black and dark blue wire on its socket, the mass burn off control relay has five wires, dark blue, orange, red, purple, and black/white.

On my 87 the burnoff relay is the one that was harder to get at.
