Bought a new battery bc i thought the old one had a dead cell but the car still won't seem to crank.. battery seems to drain quickly to the point that the door lights won't cut on.. The only way I've gotten it to crank so far was by jumping it off.. I've checked the solder joints in the main relay and everything looks good from the last fix but I'm not sure if it may have went bad for another reason.. are there any other types of relays between the main and the starter/solenoid? I can hear clicking for inside the dash but the motor/starter never turns.. I recently upgraded to another accord (07 this time) but I'm trying to get this one back running so I can sell it.. I would greatly appreciate any help in the matter but I'm not sure where to look and can't really afford a mechanic..

Are you saying it only starts when you push start it ?

Nah for some reason it's only wanting to crank when I jump it off with cables.. I drove it for almost 30 min one day after I jumped it off but never noticed anything that would make me think it was the alternator.. got back home and cut it off and it wouldn't start back up..

What the hell does "jump it off" mean ?

U have 7000+ posts on an auto forum and u have no idea what jump starting a car with jumper cables is? I'm pretty sure I mentioned that at least once..

You didnt say jump start, you said jump it off.

Is it too much to ask to use terms other people on this planet use ?

Im clearly too dumb to help you out.

With 7000+ posts I would assume u would have heard that before. It is a common term almost everywhere I've ever been in the us so I'm not quite sure what the hell ur talking about but thanks for ur help.

I wouldn't necessarily say ur dumb but u do obviously lack the cognitive ability to read and process everything u have read. It was stated that jumper cables were used so what else in the world would "jumping it off" mean....?

With 9- posts i would expect you to use terms nobody else on this planet(or messageboard)has ever used before.

And common sense and logic tells me 2+2=4 but where ur from I guess that's different.. how bout we quit with the passing contest..? U didn't read enough of the post to notice the detail u obviously skipped over.. please go be an *** somewhere else..

holmesnmanny

And u skipped over the part where i was helping you.

ndrew2505

Where? When? In the confusion u caused urself? Omfg I'm so sorry dude.. sorry u can't read.. thanks..

holmesnmanny

Have you found any other people on this planet yet that have used the phrase "jump it off" ?

Surely there must be one person ?

ndrew2505

Man ur dense.. did I not just state a few posts ago that it was a common phrase almost everywhere I've ever been? I answered ur first question twice and now I'm answering this one twice.. wtf? Mods please delete this thread.
