That appears to be the neutral safety lockout switch. You may be able to adjust the switch to make it work, or you may need to replace the switch.

Where is the starter relay located in a 1996 Chevy Lumina?

Your car has a starter solenoid instead of a relay. The solenoid is mounted on the starter.If you are having starting problems make sure that you have checked all battery and ground connections. If it proves bad,I would recommend replacing the starter and solenoid as an assembly on this vehicle to avoid additional problems. Good luck.
