Ignition relay issues?
Hi......
Drove to the store just fine....would not restart....noticed the warning light....dash gauges..like engine temp and gas level not working...along with the sun roof stuck open....no power!
So put in a new ignition relay....g15 or 16 i think......car started right up.
When i went to restart it a while later.....wont fire.....but all the lights and guages work.
This is really wierd.
Any thoughts appreciated.

You still clearly have an issue that will likely rear its ugly head again at an inconvenient time. The new ignition relay didn't solve the problem because it wouldnt start again after it got hot, so you have a temp related starting problem. Perhaps it is in the DME, maybe a bad solder joint. I would make sure this issue is solved before I drove the car and got stranded.
