ok so, a couple days ago my sister got her civic 94 hatch stolen then yesturday they found it, so i told the cops to tow it to my house but now i am trying to figure out what could cause it not to have any power at all, i put the key in turn it nothin, lights wont come on.

I pushed on the emergency flashers and nothing, i even put my car batery in to her to see if it could of been the batery but still nothing.

i was thinking it could of been a blown up fuse i dunno let me know what you guys think could of cause that.

Any help will be apreciated.

Thanx

 

check the main fuses, grounds... see if all connectors are connected.

 

check your main power fuse sounds like it is blown missing or they cut the wiring. Does the car have an alarm system in it ? is anything missing like the ecu engine parts/under hood fuses or relays? good luck who knows what they did

 

will, do i checked to see if all the fuses inside the car were there but dint check if any of them were blown up yet but id still have some show of power, i cant even figure out how they started it.

maybe slammed a srew driver in it cauz when they found it there was a flathead screw driver and a star srewdriver in the car.

 

good idea i will check the main relay fuse, no she dosent have a alarm, nothing is missing under the hood ecu is still there.

kind of sucks when you dont know what they did lol i will find out though

 

well the simplest explanation is, does the battery still work, or is there still one.

 

if they broke the ignition and your are still trying to use the key i hope the switch is put back in place or you are turning the key for no reason...but the probly blew the main fuse under the hood i think they only sell it at the dealership let me know what size it is i think its 100 not sure but i have some i can send you one if you need it let me know

 

the ignition turns perfectly so lets cancel the screw driver now the main fuse maybe cause the batery fuse is still good i checked it

 

you check the fuses from under the hood? maybe the battery fuse is blown

 

i did and its still good

 

the fuses under the hood dont look like traditional fuses they are screwed down are those the ones your checking

 

dude i dont think he is going to be able to swing a main fuse, id suggest he take it to the shop he is in over his head

 

its 2 phillip screws not that hard lol

ill buy the car off of ya op

if he seriously just thinks about the ******* thing he can do it, automechanics isnt a skill its just bolts and ****

op calm down and look at basic things ll you have to do is diagnose the problem sit down and think about the problem and check things off ****

 

meh anyways ill figure it out this week end, thanx for the ones that helped me out, and who gives a expletive if i called it a star wrench im french and i dint know the name for it, so who cares you still understood what i was saying and yes i checked all the fuses under the hood they all look good.

problem #1...use a meter to check fuses for continuity...you don't use a lighter to look down into your filler nozzle to see how much gas you have right???....use the right tool for the job. checking fuses by eye is friggin useless.

10 bucks says it a main fuse that LOOKS ok but is actually fried...and you can paypal that to me after you pay for that $10 fuse you blew.

 

Pics of sister or ban!!!!

 

check if all the wires are conected to the steering/key ignition

hahaa how about no there already alot of my friends that bug me with my sisters haha

 

First question, is the ignition broken?

If so have you placed the white ignition thing back to off and placed it in the broken ignition?

That way if you insert the key it will turn the Ignition.

Try jump starting from another car(I read you already tried your battery, just try homie)

Look at the battery terminals if they were cut like the ground and positive from the engine harness.

Looks for ignition fuses, if the guys who stole the car accidentally touched the wires on the broken ignition while popping it out the fuses would blow the car wont start up again. It wont have any electricity(most likely your problem so you have to go and look at fuses under hood and under dash)

 

aright thanx will check closesly tomorow

 

Hrm

The main fuse is what everybody's saying.

I don't have much experience with trying what works and what doesn't work when it's blown - but would the hazards not work because of it? 'Cause OP said they don't work either.

Sounds to me like a broken battery connection. Does there appear to be any damage to the leads?
