Default Update on 1997 Honda Accord not starting

Okay, I went back this morning to my car and I must of been tripping. Here is the correct problem the car gets no click when I turn the key, and the D4 light comes on only for 2 seconds and shuts off. I hope this is a bit more clear than my pervious post. HOnda-Tech Members HELP!!!!

when my starter was going i had this problem. if you keep click click clicking it sometimes it will start eventually...mine was like that for a few days before i replaced my starter. hopefully it will get you home. also, if you try jumping it sometimes the extra voltage will get the starter to turn, even if it's weak.

UPDATE! I decided to tow the mothe******! When the tow-truck driver got there he decided to **** with the shifter and he went through every gear and put it back into park and did it one more time..Then it started! Go figure! He said, " Interlock might be going out." Hey! As long as it runs... Thanks HONDA TECH!!!!!
