Over Voltage Protection-relay, it protects the Innjection unit, ABS unit and so on from high voltage, if that relay is broken the car is hard to st5art and rattles a lot b'cause its going in "failure mode" without ignition settings and so on, the ABS/ASD and so on dont work either, The relay sits behind the battery by the units, its big and silver and has an fuse or to on its top depending on which model it is, the fuse on the ovp can be broken too, check that first!
