Will not always start
2002 Honda Accord EX 4Cyl. automatic.
Sometimes will not crank and I only hear a click. Most of this situation is after it is driven. I tested the starter at Autozone and they said it is good. I checked voltage,continuity and shows good. How can I check the relay? A tech radio show stated the following: "The starter relay can be bad. But do not rely on the starter test. If it does not start after driven, the starter can be not connecting after hot inside the case." How can I check the starter?

When it won't start tap it with a hammer. Not exactly lightly but don't beat it. And then try and turn it over. If that works then it is your starter.
Tap the starter to be clear.
