Fire up again at conservative side repressing the Spanish (7)

I believe the answer is:

relight

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fire up again' is the definition.
('light' can be a synonym for 'fire up' so perhaps 'relight' is OK for 'fire up again')

'conservative side repressing the spanish' is the wordplay.
'conservative side' becomes 'right' (I am not sure about the 'conservative' bit.).
'repressing' is an insertion indicator.
'the spanish' becomes 'el' ('the' in Spanish).
'right' placed around 'el' is 'RELIGHT'.

'at' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for relight that I've seen before include "Ignite again" , "Rekindle" , "get going over" , "The girl (anag)" , "fire again?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
