not 2 be a smart *** JohnData but seriously read carefully relay clicks and fuel pump also works everything works just dandy except for the car will not crank


95dxsir2- right i have a service manual my question was how exactly do i jump the relay i know were and what relay your talking about i just don't know how 2 jump it

also the car came with an after market push button start and a kill switch the kill switch works perfectly and the push button also works i can hear the click im not a total nub at Honda im just extreamly weak when it comes to the electrical parts im planning a rebuild this coming weekend should i just replace the engine harness, would that help any thing?

As i sated before grounds are good and everything works, but wont crank. Ecu has power along with fuel pump and i hear the click so battery is good. When i got the car it ran fine, but one day it didnt start, battery went dead and cable was bad, so i relpaced them both after that it seemed like it would start less and less often so i returned the battery and put a diffrent one in worked great for about a week at that point checked alternator it checked out fine so starter was replaced twice and the car worked fine for about 2 weeks after the starter was replaced, then i noticed that if i were to grind the starter b4 killing the car it would start back up, didnt like doing this so i never really did it except for like twice now the starter wont grind unless i rev it up past 5300 rpm, and the weirdest thing is that when i flip the kill switch to power the car everything works great lights, windows, locks, stereo everything jst will not start. I dont know what else to say its like the damn car is haunted.

Also would swaping out the entire engine harness do anything to solve my problem?

iv already replaced it twice and that didnt solve the problem except for about 2 weeks then i exchanged the starter and boom 2 weeks later same thing also if i replace the battery (even though its good) it will work for about 3days then once again no start i havent really tried replacing the starter or battery in awhile but i suppose it wouldn't hurt checking the starter one last time b4 trying 2 replace the entire wiring harness
