Re: Another CRX won't start.

Main relay has absolutely nothing to to with the starter motor itself. The starter relay, the key itself and the starter are your only points. Also if your car is equipped with a clutch safety switch that is there too. Happens to be one of the most common problems that everyone overlooks when their car wont crank..little plastic plug piece falls off the clutch pedal and the assembly fails to engage the safety switch. Reach up under the dash and press the switch with your hand and turn the car over.

Re: Another CRX won't start.

Only thing the main relay will do is put power to the injectors, the ecu, the fuel pump relay and a couple other things that rely on that 12v circuit that you can find throughout the car as a black wire with yellow stripe. At the ecu its a yellow wire with black stripe.
