The relay is located in the Underhood Bussed Electrical Center (UBEC) on the left side of truck. The starter relay is the large one in approximately the middle under the lid. Get a new one, pull it out and push the new one in.

SOURCE: How do I replace the starter

the starter will be at the rear of the engine. Disconnect all of the cables, remove the 3 or 4 bolts that hold it in. Pull it straight out of the engine. Install the new starter. Starters are fairly straightforward, but sometimes awkward to reach.

SOURCE: How do I remove the rear axle to replace the seal 1996 jimmy

You will have to remove the differential cover on the rear end, in the center of the gear cluster you'll have to rotate your axle until it exposes the ends of the axle shafts, push in the axles as far as you can from the brake pad assembly area, then, there this a C clips that slips into a groove on the end of the axle, you'll have to reove the C clip to pull out the axle.

SOURCE: 1996 jimmy gmc fuse box

Look on the driver's side fender well under the hood. Should be a long black rectangular box there. That is the power center or fuse block. The relays and fuses are inside. The top is not hard to remove. Hope this helped and best wishes.

SOURCE: 1996 GMC Jimmy will not shift into overdrive.

4th gear failure is a common problem with this transmission, assuming it is an automatic. You should have the vehicle checked for codes by a qualified repair center with the proper scan tool. Also, check fluid level and condition. More often than not, the trans loses 3rd and 4th gear, as these are working off the same set of clutches. 3-4 clutches apply in 3rd, and when the 4th shift is made the 2-4 band applies giving you overdrive. If you have no engine braking in manual 3rd, you definitely have a mechanical failure, no 4th could be an electrical, or mechanical fault.

SOURCE: wath P1406 Code means on a GMC jimmy 1996,

It's an egr valve problem (exhaust gas return) egr position sensor.
Take off the egr valve and turn it over and see if there is carbon build up in the ports, if there is clean it out with a pipe cleaner and a little carbon cleaner, just spray a little into the ports and clean it out. If that doesn't cure the problem, then either the sensor needs replacing, and or the egr valve.

I have a 97 gmc jimmy and we puta head gasket on and now there isn't any power after the starter? Anyone have any ideas?

Starter relay is in the middle of the firewall near the top of the firewall. I would check connections and /or replace that relay. They are very inexpensive.
Also, you could turn the key on and run a jumper wire from power to the starter solenoid and see if it starts. You can easily get to the solenoid though the right wheel well. Be careful not to ground the wire by mistake.

I have a 1996 GMC Jimmy. Fuel pump replaced (new) and still do not here the pump kick on. Can start and runs fine if Throttle body is primed with gas. Is there a relay? where?

yes, there is a relay, probably in the engine compartment battery relay box. If the relay fails, oil pressure will allow the pump to run, so the relay is likely to be your problem.
