I am not sure as to your question since you do not reference a certain problem. If you have a relay that seems to work intermittently, I have found that if you very slightly twist the tabs that it will fit tighter. This will insure that you are getting good contact.

Where is the main power relay on a 90 Honda accord?

If you are looking for "Main Relay", it is under steering and behind cruise control unit. You will need to remove cruise control unit before you can see it. I believe it has "Main" or "Main Relay" words on it and it is brown color. What problem do you have? I have changed this main relay a few years back due to hard to start when hot.

Why won't my 1990 accord not start when it is hot outside?

The problem is the Main Relay. The location of the relay makes it susceptible to failure when the sun is shining on it. A simple replacement of the Main Relay will fix this problem. If you want to replace it yourself, it is located under the dash, to the left of the steering column (hidden by silver cruise control box, which needs to be removed).

Had the exact problem. It was the main relay. It is found near the fuse box and is a square box looking thing. Went to Acura dealership and replaced for $75 It is not your fuel pump. Some people will try to sell you this. I promise the main relay will solve the problem.


My Acura Vigor will not start sometimes if you let it sit it will start It turns over just doesn't start?

There are a few possibilities for the problem. The most likely are the main relay and the engine temp sensor. The main relay is a problem very common to older Honda/Acura models, and the temp sensor is a common cause is general.

The main relay and the fuel pump relay are the same. Take the fuel pump relay and swap it with the main relay and see if that will help you....
