Default really need help finding...

First of all my problem is that sometimes when its hot my car doesnt start. When i turn my key on the engine light wont go off and my car just wont start. It cranks and cranks but wont start.
I found out that its the main relay fuse somewhere under the dash. I just need to replace it because its old and not working right.
If anyone knows what im talking about please tell me where to find it. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Yeah your main relay went bad. Its under the dash on the driver side, left of the steering column. Look for a gray colored relay mounted on a bracket. It has the words Main Relay written on it. If you replace it your problem will most likely be fixed. Most all of these can be repaired by resoldering the bad solder joints. If you look at it with a magnifying glass you will see what looks like a crater right in the middle of the solder. I fix them all the time, you just have to be able to solder real good......3gdude
