The relay is at the base of the steering column taped to the wire harness i really doubt that relay is bad.Like i said before they hardly ever go bad i have worked on these cars over 18yrs so i would know.Its most likely the starter if you have a test light do this before you waste your money on a relay.With the key in the start position see if you have power to all the yellow wires going to the relay if you do its not a bad relay.If you dont then before you replace it let me know what you find because the security system on the car disables the starter on your car.Also please post your findings on this question dont start new question to post a reply or i wont get a email telling me that you posted a reply to this question.Also do you have a manual transmission or automatic?
