Car stalls when hot. I think it is the main relay or the pgm-fi relay. I need to know the location of this relay I am finding conflicting information

Theres 2 of them Behind the glove box and to the right ..small bracket with the two of them together
1 ..ecu (turns on and off the ecu )
2..fuel pump (turns on and of pump)
...
If youre having stalling after driving for a while the pump or pump relay might be failing
..most likely the ecu is fine . But ud check the ecu relay anyway since its right there would hurt ..good luck hope this helps .
