Pwede ma-overload, mag-init, at masira ang ignition switch. Yung main relay ang dapat mag dala ng high current electrical load.

Replace your main relay. Dont scrip on safety, specially this is a electrical device.

A relay is like a switch, it controls the electrical load.

tama sila dieseldude at userfriendly saka kapag walang relay baka masunog ang device na kinakailangan relay kay habang maaaga pa ay palagyan mo na ulit ng relay yan kung ayaw mong magsisi sa huli

I also agree. MAIN relay pa naman yan. Kung yun ngang busina, nilalagyan ng relay, yun pa kayang load ng Main relay?

Replace it right away.

Isipin mo na lang na ang low current side (maliliit ang wiring normally), e pasukan mo ng high current.... Delikado....

^^^ Bro, pa PM na rin ng name ng shop and number. Brand new OEM ba nabili mo, or bnew replacement lang? Lapit lang kasi office namin sa Mindanao Ave.

Actually, naayos na (yata) ng mekaniko ko yung ride ko (97 Accord). Suspetsa ko main relay din, yun nga lang surplus. Balak ko sana bumili ng bago para wala na akong iintindihin. (Or puwede rin daw i-resolder yung main contacts sa main relay, pero wala akong alam na shop na marunong dito).

masturzerg,
this is a bad habit, don't do it again.
should you need to get out of traffic jam while your relay is inoperative, use a fused jumper with a fuse rating equal to or a tad bit lower than the circuit involved. if it was on the control side of the relay, still use a fused jumper using a two amp or a five amp rated fuse. once you get out of the traffic jam, have your chariot checked by a qualified auto electrician. it is always a good habit to carry an ABC type fire extinguisher in a car aside from a first aid kit. think safety!
