94 escort lx starter relay location

Hello, my car recently decided to not start when I turned the key. One of my good friends is a car enthusiast/mechanic and took a look at it. he became very frustrated when he could not find the "starter relay" he is convinced this is what it is. he is able to start it doing something crazy with a paper clip, and it runs fine, its just that the key will not start it. if anyone could tell me where the starter relay is on a 94 ford escort lx, that would be great! thank you.

comon dont you noobz know anything?
