No relays involved, unless you have an interior light delay unit, and that's only fitted to the driver's side.
What do you mean by " i have changed over wires and it works"?

Are the wires in the correct position?
Red/green has to be at the opposite end from the switch. Other two can be either way around at the switch end.
