Default Main relay click's?

So I'm waiting for my ecu to get here and went to the j/y to get some ed(88-91) parts, sorry long story. But I found a 94 hatch and pulled the main relay just because its allways good to have an extra I've noticed from my 88-91 ownings to always have an extra. So I did the test on it to check continuity and it clicks when I hook up power to it and reads out 0. That means it's good right? This is the test I used.

There are 3 tests in this main relay "test." When you check for continuity, does your multimeter beep? If so, (and if you followed the steps correctly) that means your main relay is good. Also, 0 ohms, is good, yes.

Ha, I took a shower and was thinking about the 3 clicks when you turn the key. Duh, sorry I'm an idiot. But hopefully this will answer some one else's relay quetion. Thanks for the input though guy's.
