Have some very odd symptoms.

I have a 1995 Honda accord EX with 130k miles.
AutomaticTransmission.

I was driving along and all of a sudden all vitals went to "0" meaning the spedometer, RPM, it was almost like the battery was dying and finally stalled out.

The Drive4 green indicator light started to blink on and off while I was in park.

Then I started the car up again and it wouldn't start. Tried a few more times finally started but barely.. but had absolutely no power.. like something was stuck in the fuel lines.. just no power at all and barely made it into my driveway. Now the car is in my driveway and won't start again.

I'm thinking it is the distributor so I've ordered one to try to see if that is the issue.


Can the distributor be the issue? Can a distributor all of a sudden crap out like that? It has been raining quite a bit lately and maybe some condensation could be the culprit? Any help would be appreciated.

NOTE: One thing I forgot to add.. for some reason the cars door locks were going haywire like up and down up and down as well as the gauge cluster in terms of the drive gear indicator. Not sure how that is related but maybe that would shed some light.

check all the wires going into your fuse box, the positive cable might be loose.... thats what i would check first.

When you say check all the wires going into the fuse box.. do you mean the box under the hood?

All the electricals work even though the car isn't starting. If it was a battery connection issue, wouldn't it stop from other things in the car not powering like windows etc?

 

I'd check for spark; then check for battery voltage at the Black/yellow wire of the dist, with the key on; Then you can check for fuel pump pressure by having some one crank the engine while you just barely crack open the bolt on the fuel rail.

I hate to see you buying parts that might not fix your problem.
An accurate diagnostic can save you hundreds of hard earned clams.

 

Ya the one under the hood.
