The only relays that are related to the starter are the closed circuit cutoff relay (located behind glovebox) and the overload protection relay (located in RH side of luggage compartment)

I have a similar problem. I bought this car from an individual. The battery was dead. I managed to charge it. The engine turned but the fuel pump wasn't working.I bought a fuel pump relay from autozone.I put it in. It had a dead short in it.I got it back out as fast as I could. Now the starter won't turn. Maybe an overload relay?

Hello,

There is no starter relay except for the solenoid on the starter itself, there is a driveway safety module that could be bad, here is a wiring diagram and a guide so you can do some testing.

Please let us know what happens.

Best, Ken
