Bronco starting question

Whats the relay( I think) on the firewall for? I've tryed shorting the solonoid and cleaned every connection but it won't start or crank. The starter tested good. It sounds like that relay thing on the firewall is clicking? Is it needed ?? Its like a fuseblock thing. The parts store don't carry this either...

is there a bad fuse?
clicking means a bad starter/alternator
if it cranks but won't turn over = bad battery
right?
have you tested for spark?

clicking means battery. have you tested the battery? or jumped it with cables from another car? to jump the relay take a wire from battery "+" to the "S" terminal
