last night me and a few buddies were cruising around, stopped in a gas station and my car wouldnt start, i had full power it was like the starter solenoid wire came off was not that, so i rolled back and pop started it, then my alternator belt broke, got a new one replaced it then, then it was doing the whole not starting thing again.... popped it went home

then tried it again this morning and still acted like the the solenoid wire was off, searched here and thought maybe the starter relay, went to napa and got a new one(tested for power and its good), wasnt that, i replaced the ignition switch 4 weeks ago and its good, tested the starter signal fuse, and no power and also its not the clutch engagement switch(jumped it and tested w/ no avail)...

my question is does the main relay send power to the starter signal fuse or control that in any way?


also i pulled the main relay and it smells mildly burnt

and the relay says RZ-0042 thats what the 86-89 Integra's call for
and the 90-93 Integra's call for RZ-0063

is ran for the past 6 monthes ive owned it and i dont know how much longer before that

any info would be greatly appreciated!!!

up for some help and a new relay and still no go

 

i dunno, try the fuses under the hood?

 

Hmm sounds like to me you know what your doing testing everything. Sometimes you can shake the relay and if it rattles its done and if you think its good, plug it in and you should hear it click when you try the circuit. Here's something you can try. Get a Voltmeter and get some leads. What you want to do is look on this starter relay and look for the switch side. (PM if you do not know how to read a relay.) What you want to do is by pass the switch and see if it works. So plug the leads into the switch ports and see if it cranks. Also, check out your grounds. And while you have your volt meter, make sure your battery is putting out 12- 12.5 volts.

PM me with anything else.

EDIT: Make sure you put the relay in the correct way cause if you didn't your F'd.

A list of things to check
1. Batter voltage
2. Grounds (starter, battery, ect)
3. Jump relay switch (stated above)
4. Fuses
5. Look around for any loose wires and around connectors.

 

pm'd thanks for the response
