You're correct, those are the ASD and FP relays. To test them check for power on the red wires. The red wires should have power whether the key is on or off. Now with the key on, the two Dark Green wires should have power, but with the key off they should be dead.

The relays need to be plugged in.
Okay, so it does sound like all of power is getting to the relays but the relays are not turning on. I also assume that if you hold your finger on the relays you aren't feeling a click when someone turns the key on and off? If that's the case then, 9 out of 10 times this means either a fuse feeding the PCM is blown or the PCM is no good. There's also a small chance your ignition switch died, but that is rare.
