sometimes, only every now n then (usually when i drop it in to get work done ) my car doesnt start
turn the key and theres nothing
my mate told me to wiggle these (shown in the pic) and then try start it
and it works
can someone tell me wat all three are?
they are located drivers side in the engine bay by the battery
i got told to change the one closest to the front of the car (the one at the bottom of the photo), will this one have something to do with it now starting? got told its a neutral switch or moudule or something
thanks in advance
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
One of those is the ECU reverse polarity relay, but hey just swap all of them,
your time is prob worth more than the relays

Yeah those first 2 relays are for the automatic gearbox as far as I know...
That is the relay you bridge the purple wires in order to bypass the neutral lockout when doing an auto-manual conversion.
I'd say that has a poor connection which would tell the computer your not in park/neutral and wont let the car start (as it thinks its in drive/reverse)
Maybe just give the whole lot a clean with contact cleaner etc or re-wire a new relay into it,....
If you do swap them, keep in mind the reverse polarity relay (the grey one) is different to the others in that it has a change-over contact in it. A normal relay will not work.

im probly gunna change all three
how much roughly are they each?
Maybe just go rip one out of a vl at the wreckers... 99% of them are auto so you should be right... See how that goes... In the pocket and out you go...
