Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

Good advise. Thanks.

The no crank has not happened since the battery was replaced.

The battery guy thought a bad battery would explain it. Said he had seen batteries that were about to fail act...

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

It had a crack in the metal where it attached to the battery. I happened to notice it and replaced it as a precaution

Replaced that a few years ago. (The engine used to die while driving down the highway).

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

It looks fine. All the ground wires were replaced on the engine about 5 years ago due to another unrelated issue.

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

What is odd that the car would not start so I disconnected the positive terminal of the battery, waited 30 seconds, and reconnected it. The car started.

This was before I had the battery tested...

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

All of a sudden today the car would not start again. I waited a few minutes and the car started fine.

Had the battery tested and it tested bad. Apparently the battery was marginal and that...

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

I want to thank everyone for their help.

I've probably driven 400 miles and started and restarted the car 50 times. The starting issue has not repeated.

I checked the ground cables anyway and...

No, when it would not start, it never cranked.

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

As I said above, the grommet on the clutch was fixed months ago by me.

The P0420 code was on for about a week prior to the incident. I tried the catalytic cleaner fluid to no avail and had just...

Re: No crank, no start......but then starts later

Yes, I mean the grommet on the clutch pedal. That was fixed by me months ago. The grommet is still in place. I stuck my finger up there to make sure.

98 Civic DX Manual

It wouldn't start or crank. I could hear a low humming noise which I think is the fuel pump. No clicking, and battery ok.

I came back a couple of hours later and it started...

Re: 98 Civic DX Heater Blower Motor not running.

With it removed, it's working intermittently. It'll kick off by manually turning the fan, so I'm assuming it's about to fail altogether so I ordered a new one.

Re: 98 Civic DX stalls while driving

It was the Ignition Control Switch.

Re: 98 Honda Civic DX losing power

Well, the cable grounds helped, but later it turned out to be a faulty Ignition Control Switch.

98 Civic DX Heater Blower Motor not running.

My heater blower stopped in my 98 Civic.

Just before it failed completely, 1, and 2 switches had stopped working, and only 3 and 4 worked.

I checked both the 40A fuse in the engine, and the 7.5...

Re: 98 Honda Civic DX losing power

A mechanic determined that the problem was the ground cable. I had them replaced, and so far the car has not had the symptoms again.

Re: 98 Honda Civic DX losing power

Interesting but I never touch the key. I downshift because the car is in motion but the power just comes back by itself after a few seconds.

Re: 98 Honda Civic DX losing power

Thanks for you reply. The battery is about a year old, but I am going to have it tested anyway.

Wouldn't the alternator fail all at once? There are no issues with starting the car. This problem...
