    1997 honda accord main relay?
    My car shuts down out of the blue!
    I have no idea why! But It sometimes goes for weeks with out having any problems.! =]
    although when it does happen, it takes a while to start back up.
    An amateur mechanic (a friend) said it could be the main relay.?
    can any one help me out?

    . Replace the Ignition Control Module (ICM), being sure to apply silicone heat transfer compound to the back of the new ICM.

    . Check/replace the ignition switch for wear, pitting, or melting, if the problem persists.

    . Replace the main relay, if the engine starts in the cool of the morning but won't in the heat of the day.
