should there be another relay where my finger is pointing to? If so could this be affecting my no start problem?

Do you have a test light? DVOM? cell phone through Verizon?

I'm almost out of minutes, but if you're on VZ I'll PM you my number and see what help I can be over the phone.

All the engine related relays are in the engine compartment. The Cap'n

I'm not sure what that socket does, but...

i didn't have a relay installed there when i bought the car, and the car ran just fine.

I bought another relay and installed it just because. no difference

HI, I thought that was for the buzzer to warn that you left the key in the ign with the door open.

i didnt think it had anything to do with the engine either but i just cant figure out whats going wrong with the electrical system and i was hoping it was an easy fix like a new relay or something

was it starting before? your 3rd fuse from the right has electrical tape over the spade connection, and you have one red or 2 wires total disonnected wires with electrical tape going them.. that looks suspicious to me..

I bet you don't have foglights on your car, do you?


I think that is the foglight relay socket. It is empty if you don't have foglights.

my foglights worked when i didn't have a relay in that socket

There were only so many relays that can be there, which one are you missing?
Horn
Fog
Key Buzzer
Rear defrost

If you have a cranking problem it could be the seatbelt relay under the passenger seat.

The blank spot most likely where the buzzer goes. It has a metal cover on it. If you have a seat belt interlock realy under the passenger seat your car would be a '74 up year model. If so, connect the two large yellow wires together to bypass it.

Detox it was starting before but after sitting for a couple months untouched i went to start it and smoke began coming from the fuse panel. the next i went to take a look and it looked like the wire going to the 10th spot on the fuse panel was fried and melted. i was told i could just cap off that wire and it wouldnt affect the anything cuz i think it was for the fog light. so i did this and now when i turn the key nothing happens.. no lights on the dash no fuel pump no starter motor so im lost what t do next.

Im only 18 and im decent with mechanical stuff but i know nothing about electrical
