Default What are the symptoms of bad main relay?

My car no longer has fuel or spark. It just cranks. It ran fine before. Would grounding out the electriacl system on accident blow the main relay?

I don't know if that would blow the relay or not. Some symptoms of a bad relay would be intermittent starts, starts revs up and then loses fuel pressure and won't crank over after that. Then you give it 5-10 min. and it starts up fine. Some of the things that I experienced. You can always pull the relay out and test across the designated circuits with a DMM for continuity.

Check your ECU fuse as well.
