I keep telling you there are NO stupid questions-so for the answer in 2 parts--Agree to buy a Helm right now.
Part 2: The Main Relay (black cased Mitsumi) is located above the hood release and undwer the dash in an odd spot. To see it take the coin box out (3 screws) and reach to the left. You can see it with a flaslight and feel it. The bracket that holds it on has 1 bolt and it is underneath. You need a 10mm open end or combination wrench to get at this thing. Once you figure out how to get the bolt out you lift the relay up and move it to the coin box opening and unplug the connector and replace it. Unless you have a lot of time and experience soldering-go to your friendly Honda dealer and buy a new one--most keep this one in stock as the failure rate is pretty high for this (10 years or more of continuous service). The List price is about $60, but with various discounts it can be had for $40-45.
If you are in a bind-have the dealer print out the parts list and drawing showing where it is (also available at Majestic Honda's site).
Our race car is a little different now that I cut the edge of the dash away-made getting the bolt out and back in a piece of cake-you can remove the screw under the dash to gain a little more access. You also have to take the hood release assembly and move it out of the way.
Good luck
