Ok I bought my younger brother a 93 LX. He wanted to gut it so he ripped everything out to paint it. After putting it all back together the ruel pump won't turn on , and when power is applied (battery) the dash lights stay on, and the gauge lights turn on. It's like you have the key turned to on even when the key is out. You can roll the windows up and down and everything is on like if the car were on. Can someone please give me some insight.

thanks
Mike

The wiring's messed up. What else could it be?

Pull it out and try again??? Honestly, I don't see how you messed it up unless you started cutting wires or something.

No wire cutting at all, no chaffs, no opens, I ohmmed all the wires for continuity, all looks good. It's just being retarded, I did a search with no luck.

do you hear the main relay turn on at all?

JDMlyfestyle

sounds like your main relay has gone bad

damnit ^^^^ beat me to it

No i don't I was thinking relay, but I have no idea where it is located. I'm in the air force and do **** loads of wiring on the B-1. I work with wiring all day long and relays are a quick fix. If you could tell me where to look I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

The main relay is right by the fuse box under the dash. its all the way to the left. and is held in place with a 10mm bolt. should be 8 12-10 gauge wires going into it.

I really appreciate all the help. I'll give that a try and keep you posted how it goes.

Thanks

Check your ECU fuse too. It is the 15 amp fuse all the way on the right hand side.

check your hazards press them in then see what happens

You should check the ground wires too. My car didnt start becuase the ground wire from the car to the tranny wasnt making a good connection.

hazards are still flashing, what would it mean if they weren't????

Civic2Fast

Thanks for the diagram it was a big help!!!!!

Checked main relay, and wiring, juice isn't going anywhere from the main relay. I replaced it and it's still a no go. Any other suggestions???
