    Technician advises there is no signal to the starter relay.

    Battery and Starter are AOK. Also recently replaced Fuel Pump Relay (PO230 code).
    Over the last few days vehicle shut down very briefly, then kept running fine before it totally shut down and now cannot be started again. Thanks for your input which is greatly appreciated.

    So you want us to guess what is wrong when someone that looked at your 4R told you what is wrong?

    If they told you what is wrong why did they not fix it.

    Going to guess its not the fuse since it can randomly start.

    Is he talking about no power to the primary side or secondary side of the relay ?

    Did this tech specify from or to the starter relay? If it was 'from' then you just replaced it and problem solved. If it was 'to' then it wasnt the problem to begin with. Is there a signal from the ignition? From the ECU? Were there any other codes thrown?
