Hi, where is starter relay S8 fl 2002 d2 model? What is relay's number and location?

Might not be the relay could be other common things like the ign. switch, the starter itself, the wiring going to the starter, but first make sure your battery is good and charged.

Yeah an issue still not resolved with mine, STRONG solenoid click, but no crank. ..

the auto spark said its either the starter or something jammed internal.

frigging starter is in the worst ever spot of any car I know.

Still waiting for my mates hoist, but I will update exactly what the problem was, hopefully not a broken tensioner

But as Yoda said, there are other possibilities with yours ...

I have new starter, battery and alternator. Cable should be ok and the car worked well for two days. Now it doesn't crank and I didn't find starter relay. I think starter relay is somewhere else than passanger side? I would like to jumper the relay and make sure, that starter is ok...

Did you check the battery? Maybe you have a battery drain.

Does the D2 have a starter relay? Maybe some sort of shift interlock relay. I have seen relay charts online, a quick google shows this video:

...which among other things shows a starter interlock relay R7 in relay box 2 but it's not very clear. It goes on to show R1 in relay box 3 also as a starter interlock and also another function for the same relay.
Clear as mud. I did not look to see if there are others.

If it were my car I'd check the battery and try starting in neutral, wiggling the shifter around, wiggling the key around, etc.

Thank you for replies! Battery is full charged and its new, but I will check again. " R1 in relay box 3"- this is, what I have to find and it should be same relay box in passanger footwell... I thought there is only 2 relay box, but maybe there is "3 box," will see? Also I have to check plus cable to starter, even contactor is clean, cable can be corroosion...

Try manually turning the engine, it is possible to slip a socket in there without removing anything to turn the engine, have done this before. In this way you know whether things are f* up
