ok new motor. everythin worked 3months ago when i parked it in my garage and started workin on it. worked two nites ago. i chipped a p30 and put in my 8y hatch and it started so it should work in my coupe. went to start the car last nite and the battery seemed fine, fuel pump primed, ect. try to start and it was died so i charge it all nite and then tired to start it and the cel wont come on nor will the oil light or battery light. fuses are good i get a clickin noise in the fuse box under the hood. thermostat grounded.

Did you try jumping it? Your battery may not be able to hold a charge so charging it wouldn't do much.

check your main fuse

is it has a quick start settin. but jumping it wont do any good if the cel and battery and oil light don't come on.

Did you disconnect the ground to your starter by any chance? Make sure it is connected properly. Also, check your starter to make sure it's working. Could also be a problem with your ECU.

You battery is probably completely dead and needs to be replaced.

not to dought you, but everything else in the car works head light, ect. its not even a year old battery. ill swap one out really fast

Bad ignition switch?

si90rex

maybe. i put a test light in "A25-IGP2 to main relay and to ground Yel/blk, Battery positive from Main relay, Battery Voltage with KOEO

A26-LG1 gound Blk/red, less than 1V"

and the cel and oil light came on very dim. i am about 98% sure all my grounds are hocked up.
that was the first thing i checked

Don't use a test light to test components in your car. You might damage the sensitive electronic components as the test light draws way too much current. Use a DMM (digital multimeter).

i dont have one.... but im thinking the problem has to do either with power to the relay or the relay, or ingition switch itself cuz i have neither fuel or an ecu.

the fuse box under the hood was bad. i replaced it with a spare
thanks guys

I wish I had read this earlier cause I knew what it was as soon as I read your post. I had the same problem in my car and if I pushed on certain fuses everything came to life, what happend to my fuse box was the tangs in the box got stretched open and would not connect.
