Default need help car wont turn on!

ive change the main relay. still no cluter lights or radio etc. no power at all. tried to jump the battery, nothing. could it be my distributor? because i took it out and changed my cap and rotor. and i remember when i turned on my car, the engine started to shake a little more than usual.

and i remember when i first turn on the car, the first few times worked, but then when i tired it for like the 3rd or 4th time. and right when i tried to ignite it, there was a huge click.

and o yaa i checked my fuses and they were all good. well.. at least it looks like its all good.

and my car is a 96 civic.

any help gladly appreciated!

help quick! my only car out to drive!

Get the battery tested, if your not getting any power, its the main source of power until your car is turned on. and even then its still the main source, with your alternator just recharging it.

hmm.. it can be true, because when i disconnect the battery, and when i put it back, the positive terminal does not have a spark when you plug it to the post no more. ill go over to autozone right now and check that.

also, could it also be my starter? cause i remember hearing a click when i tried to ignite it before.

and ive noticed sometimes when i put the key in the ignition, i hear a mini click, i think from the main relay. not sure if its the main relay.

any more help? or suggestions? and thanks btw. *thumbs up*
