Default Help me with this Relay.. which is it?

I just recently purchased an 91 honda civic hatchback..

This relay is near the dash on the driver side, just dangling..


Could anyone verify which relay this is?

Main Relay? I know the 92-95 honda civic main relay is completely different..

12v 30amp

that is NOT the main realy. it appears to be an aftermarket relay. most honda relays are black and hard plastic casing.

the main relay has a rectangular plug with 8 slots but only 7 wires going to it. it will also say Mitsuba

Bumping this back up, i need a hand here fellas.. I just realized i never posted a picture of the wires or color of the wires going to this relay..

I need to know what relay this is and can't figure it out, whichever it is.. it's bad.. somebody has had the case off and it's causing issues..

seems like two black/white wires, blue wire, and red/black..

I have this relay from Honda

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...VIN+Number+---

It looks identical to the ''made in china'' one that's in the car, but I just need to verify it's the right relay

The blk/white wire looks like the starter signal what pin is it connected to on the relay.

Makes sense.. cause when this relay acts up with the key all the way on and me trying to start it.. nothing happens then u wait a second or ''tap'' the relay and it will work.

The part # I listed and linked to, what is that for?

here is another pic of location of the relay.. I'm just kinda new to this year/made/model civics.
