how do you check if a MAIN RELAY or a MAIN FUEL RELAY is bad on an 97 civic hatch? do i use a multimeter? poor man's check light? and yes i have searched throughout the forums for this but no results. any help is gladly appreciated!

 

and my car wont start also, i have spark for sure and fuel for sure. im having a feeling its the relay. cause if it wont spark, dont it mean i got no gas/fuel? so i dont think its my fuel pump. does it also have anything to do with ignition coils etc? any help on that also is appreciated

 

take them out and bring them to autozone. They'll check them for you.

When a relay is bad the last click is usually missing.

 

what if you do not hear no clicks. I am having the same problem. I just dont want to go get a new main relay if its not even it. But my main relay would not click at all or nothing will happen to it when I turn the key on.
