cracked head Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Hi guys, I have 93 Impreza that sometimes doesn't start; it just has a little buzz and/or click somewhere under the dash and that's all she does. It'll roll start just fine. Does anyone know where the starter relay is and what it looks like? I'm pretty sure that's what the problem is. Oh ya, and the horn doesn't work either. do you know where that relay is located too? Thanks in advance for your advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 There is no starter relay. There is an interlocking switch on the clutch pedal..... thats it. Probably need new starter contacts. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 No starter relay. There is a main relay that controls power to many of the cars electrical systems and ECU. Probably what you hear clicking. Intermittent starting can be a sign of worn contacts in the starter solenoid. There are quite a few threads here detailing how to replace the contacts and save some $$ vs buying a rebuilt starter. Could also be a poor connection in the neutral start switch (manual trans), Inhibitor switch (Auto trans), or ignition switch. The clicking under the dash could indicate the ignition switch is bad.
