Would the relay switches cause a car to crank but not turn over?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

Is there a specific relay you are referring to? Among other relays, this car does have both a ignition relay, ECM relay, and an anti-theft relay. Any of these could be causing a no start.

Here is a link that shows how to test a relay:

Also, here is a link that discusses the most common causes of a crank no start condition. I'm adding this because many things can cause the condition you described.

Let me know if any of this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
