Before I tear apart the dash, can anyone tell me the location of this relay? Have intermittent starting problem on a '94 R2 and everything else checks out fine. Not sure if its the Power FC or the relay itself!

Thanks in advance.

 

I think it is down by the kick panel on the drivers side. I am not positive though. what does yours do when it tries to start? I also have a 94' r2 and after sitting for a week or so, I try to start it and the dash lights come on but no clicking from the starter and the radio lights up for a second and then turns off. I have to keep turing it over about 8 times before it final clicks over???? Battery terminals are new and clean? Not sure what else to look for? Maybe we have the same problem?

 

Since I put in the Power FC, the car will not start from time to time. I have battery power at the starter, but no power at the starter from the ign. switch, no power through the interlock switch. The only thing left is the starter cut relay which is either bad, OR not getting the ground signal from the ECU. Need to test it to be sure.

 

Had the same no start problem a while back although it occurred more often than "from time to time". Like you, narrowed problem down to the starter cut relay or the alarm ECU. Note that this is not the main ECU controlling this relay. Since it was cheap I replaced the relay but it didn't resolve the problem. Alarm ECU was too costly to justify so I just jumpered the relay out of the starting circuit and have had no problems since
