i put a 94 dx coupe motor in my 92 dx hatchback and i cant get any of the gauge light to light up or anything. and i have everything cliped in and ready to start but i cant get any power

 

check your grounds.. go back over it.. make sure every ground is hooked up..

 

i got the ground on the head, the tranny, and the one by the thermostat. i dont know what the hell to do

 

charge battery??? how much carosion is on the battery terminals? **** like that happins

check fuses??? have you done any of that?? check your harness on the ecu???


keep it simple...

 

just sell it to me

where do u live i want to get rid of it how it sits for 1600

 

i bet your battery is dead

 

probably battery if nothing is happening. check your terminals, clean them or lightly sand them to ensure best connection.

 

my battery is fine. the headlights and interior dome light work fine. but i cant get nothing else to work. what are all the grounds and thing that i would look for that would cause this to happen. but its not my battery for sure.

 

Turn the key to the "on" position and leave the car in neutral. Then tap a wire to the positive side of the battery and the metal head thicker wire on the starter and ground the small stud with the small cable attatched to it. In other words see if the starter turns over. If all else doesnt work push the car until it gets some decent speed and pop the clutch with the car in first. (be careful not to skip a tooth on the cam gear) it will throw your timing off.

NEVER USE 1ST GEAR TO POP START USE 2ND it will be easier on the motor

also check your fuses under the dash and the ones under your hood!!!look over everything just pull fuses and insect them!also you can check batterie and grounds just like everyone else is saying! i bet you it is something stoopid

 

Agreed, in 2nd gear you will have a less chance of skipping a tooth on the camgear(s)

 

ok well i found out why the lights werent turning on. but now when i turn the key into the on position only the check engine light and the oil light come on. is that right? but i cant get the car to try and start. i turn the key all the way over and nothing happens.... but i can hear my starter actuating. helpppppp lol

 

bad starter push start it!drive to autozone and have them test it....your batterie might be dead dude! have them test that as well

 

Agreed. The gears are spinning in place but the gears arent engaging the flywheel. You need to replace the starter because the one-way push bearing has gone out in the starter.

 

well the starter just makes a really quiet noise or click. Its not like the starter is all loud and grinding.

 

if your starter isn't grinding, thats not the problem. have you tried to jump start the car, or charge the battery?

 

i dont want to beat a dead horse, but buy a new battery. if your starter is clicking 99 out of 100 its the batery

 

i agree with the batterie needing replacement.start there it is best place to start

 

bateerty is new and fully charged. what i need is the pin outs for a 92 civic dx and will a p75 ecu work? i dont hear the fuel pump turning on or anything. i have a helms manual but i need all the wire color names and where they go.

 

umm buy a new wire harness so you dont have to pin it out dude! and get a p28 ecu damnit

 

Why do i need a p28 i have a sohc non vtec. I got the fuel pump and all the lights to work in the gauges. No starter still

 

why would you goto the trouble of putting a nonvtec engine? and why are you having so many problems?

 

shoot i forgot your putting in a dx motor! damn thats lame!

 

Do you have voltage @ the large wire going to the starter?
Recheck the ground @ the trans. If it is not connected correctly it will not allow a path to ground through the starter housing.
