Where is the starter relay switch on an Oldsmobile intrigue?

Where is the starter relay switch in a 1995 Nissan Quest? We were told it could either be the relay switch or the starter, because when we start our van and drive it and then turn it off, it will not start again for at least 5 hours. It does this almost every time we drive it. We have had the key/ignition tumbler replaced in it twice in the last four months.


What would cause my 2002 Pontiac Montana's horn to start blowing for no cause?

Faulty horn switch, faulty horn relay, or a short to power somewhere in the wiring. Power should be constant at the 30 pole of the relay, and should only be present at the 86 pole when the horn switch is depressed.


I have a problem starting a 1996 Honda Civic I heard it might be the clutch relay because it's like trying to start the car without having the clutch pushed in. Any ideas on what could cause this?

If the clutch switch failed then the car will not start unless the switch is bypassed. The purpose of a clutch safety switch is to prevent the car from dangerously starting, so when it malfunctions that car will not start without it switch off.


What is a split phase motor with relay and capacitor called?

A capacitor start motor is a split phase motor that uses a capacitor in series with the start winding to cause a greater phase shift, resulting in greater starting torque. It uses a centrifugal switch to switch out the start winding and capacitor once the motor is up to speed. I assume this switch is what you're referring to as a "relay".

1995 Dakota won't start battery good starter good will push start can arch the strater and will start and run replaced ignition switch still nothing?

What could cause your car to not start and have no other sounds?

it depends on the year of the car, but on some older American models there is a relay switch (about a $3.00 part) that goes out and makes the car appear "dead". most back yard mechanics will insist it's the battery or alternator, but if your car has a relay switch I would spend the couple of bucks and replace it first.


My 1995 Ford Escort will not start. I can hear the relay switch working car will not turn over and will not start with a jump The battery is new What could be wrong?

Replace that relay that is connected to the pos batt cable; I believe that's your problem.
