I'm dumbfounded. I can't find my PGM-FI main relay in my daughters 2005 Accord. Some internet pics show it under the left dash, some show it behind the glove box. one showed it behind the kick panel. I've gone all thru the under-dash, and I can't find it anywhere. Someone please help.
I'm searching for the bigger "main relay" that's "somewhere" under the dash, not the small ones in the panel. The car starts and then immediately dies. I've read this was either the ignition switch or the main relay. I've replaced the ignition switch, so now I'm searching for the main relay, and can't find it.
no, not one of those. here's the main relay I'm looking for.

It doesn't have the older style main relay. What I previously posted is what is used on the 2005 Accord instead.
gotcha, so that explains why I couldn't find it. Now, I've replaced both small PGM-FI relays in the panel under the dash, and the ignition switch, and I still have the same problem. The car starts right up, and sounds good, then dies in about 2 seconds. Any ideas?
I got it figured out!!! woohoo!!!
If your car starts fine then dies about 2 seconds later, like mine was doing, I may have the fix for ya.
I replaced both PGM relays and replaced the ignition switch... none of that helped...
RESOLVED: I had a dead bug carcass stuck up inside my mass air flow sensor!! Dumped the dead bug out, sprayed with some MAF spray, and car runs perfect!!!
Check for dead bugs in your MAF Sensor!!! Hope this helps someone else.
tried replacing ecu and ignition control module but green imobilizer key doesnt come on at all now not even when i put back the original computer. is the main and fuel relay the only problem it could be or could there be another fuse
