Default Any idea where relay switch is located?

Hi, my 97 civic hasnt been turning on, the engine cranks and everything but it just doesnt turn on! I tried a new distributor but it just wasnt that. A mechanic told me that it might be a relay switch, anyone have an idea where it is located on a 97 Civic Ex? It would mean alot of help and that what we're all here for in the first place right? Please and thank you!

is your's manual transmission? if is, then your relay is the safety on the clutch.

he's probably looking for the PGMFI main relay. under the dash on the drivers side, has a 7 wire plug in it, black or grey box, with a metal bracket attatched to it

you using shot gun diagnostics? spray it with parts and hope you hit the problem.

are you loosing fuel or spark? if you dont know put some gas in a spray bottle and spray a little in the intake before you try to crank it. if it hits you know where to look
