Well I need help
alright i have a prelude si i recently bought some ground wires of ebay (cheap) well
couple days later after driving it, it didnt want to turn on and something seemed to be draining the battery. what could it be did the grounds interfier with something. any help appreciated!

 

so you added ground wires? maybe you shorted something that is constantly draining your battery(parasitic draw)...and after not driving your car for a while(or not letting the charging system run), this will leave you with a dead battery

 

If the wires are a different size that may be your problem.

To Small - To little resistance in the circuit. If this is the case, make sure to check all your fuses, more then one component is run through one fuse, so even if it is the AC that is blown, replace it. After that, replace the grounds with OEM grounds and try again.

To Big - Hope this is the case. It may not seem like it may matter, but the wires may be extremely cheap, and may be open or have extrememly high resistance. Replace with OEM grounds and check fuses.

Hope everything goes well.

 

here is a tip check all have good grunds also have battery checked then check alternator. also try puting all back like it was see if it helps .

 

no offense.... why do people buy ebay ground wires? for color??? * really don tknow... it cant be performance...*

 

Changes are they aren't THAT much different than you're name brand grounding wires... pretty much just for looks... OEM should be just good enough

Considering aftermarket ground wires do next to nothing, I really don't think it matters if they're Mugen, Megan or Radio Shack.

 

All right thanks!

 

I figured it out the was no ground to the fraekin block
