Default Main relay Problem??

My fuel pump isn't turning on when key is on the on position, but i hear a buzz noise coming from my main relay. What does that mean?

Well, if you have an older Civic, like a 5th gen, chances are that your Main Relay is going bad. If you have a soldering iron handy, remove the relay and touch up the solder joints.

If this doesn't eliminate the problem, your Main Relay may need to be replaced.
