    Hi,

    Does anyone remember how to unlatch the connector on the main relay connector
    in a 90 civic. My daughter is 500 miles away , her 90 civic is showing the
    'main relay' problem (I hope). Lost power while driving in wet weather. Works
    ok today. Last time I replaced it was in 98 so it is about time I guess. Have
    been giving instruction over the phone. I can't remember the trick
    fo rreleasing connector.

    Thanks for any help

    There's little latch at the front of the connector (towards the engine
    side).

    Push this latch inwards while wiggling the connector downwards. You're
    pinching the connector and the latch between your thumb and middle fingers.
    It takes a firm squeeze with your fingers, and ladies may be unable to
    exert enough force, especially if they have nails. (Spare the "sexism"
    flames here...)
