    nope, its the middle of the 3 larger relays in the junction box.

    have someone try to start the car, and put ur finger on the starter relay, check to see if its clicking. if not, then switch it with another relay that u know works (either a new one, or switch it with an exact match in the car). if still no clicking, then ur not getting power to the relay, which is fun to diagnose.

    man sounds like fun :)

    gotta find why ur not gettin power to the relay now. time to go over everything in the car.

    when u try to start it, it clicks once right? if you immediaately try it again, does it click once again? or nothing?

    id say starter. if it only clicked once, and didnt again for a while, thats usually the battery connection, or corrosion on the cables.

    and starters like to just die :)

    have access to a power probe?
