Default Cel light flashing and relay clicking on ignition

96 Wrx,

As per title, the relay is 1 of round silver ones by the fuel pump relay, car was fine it just died while driving it after a wash, all plugs checked for water and have been wd40 maf is dry cam belt intact,

All that happened was drive round an island and it stopped,

I am confused as to why the cel light is flashing in time with this really and also the brown solenoid above my boost solenoid, it's as if there if a feed missing ie:a broken wire----

Any help would be great full I hate having to mess about

Thanks

Mark

mine did this. one of the relays had failed. it was the main relay (brown) but there are two more up there which also control the fuel pump.
as a temp measure i broke the lid off and cleaned the terminals that fixed it for a bit. but i dont think you can break the lids off the silver ones.
