Default Bad Main Relay?

So today I was throwing a CEL, I unbolted the ecu to get to the plug and stuck a paper clip in. It said I was throwing a CEL #6 which was the coolant temp sensor. I proceeded to fix the problem. Bolted the ecu back up and put the plug away then to my suprise the car would not start. No prime from the fuel pump and the weird part about the master relay is that it will only click when I turn the key back to the left like im going to take it out. When I turn it to the right it will not click or do anything. Is the relay bad perhaps? I checked my grounds and my ECU fuse so im stumped.

sounds like it, dealer has them for $55. the junk yard has them for $5, but you have to go and pull it.
