My experience - The relays are most likely full of rust and
sometimes just a quick blow out/rust remover and then clean
the contacts then they work again. In case you can't find
any.

I soaked one overnight in WD40 and the rust was still coming out.  It gets into the small places in the back of the relay where some flexible bands of metal (from the contacts) wrap behind the actuator arm.  If you get what I mean...?  It's a small place where shorting occured in mine and caused all sorts of havoc.  Also the contacts get burnt and may become intermittent when contacting each other.

Cheers
