problem!!!
i really don't kno whats wrong wih it. i woke up drove to the bank and win i was gettin ready to leave the car didn't start. usually win i crank up the car ill hear the fuel being pumped but not this time ....... i had a machanic look at it and he said its the distributer or ignition .i think its the fuel pump but am not sertin does anyone have an idea of what it might be??????

 

if you cant hear the fuel pump kick on then it has nothing to do with the ignition. eather your pump is bad or your main relay is bad

 

Since your in Florida, I will say its the main relay.

 

how do i change it?

 

Search on here, ton of info about it.

 

well ive changed the relay and still no go someone told me to check the ecu it only blinks when i try to crank it ......and sometimes the check engine light turns on anyone got an idea of what i should do???

 

Check your ecu for codes with ignition on.....count the blinks!

 

it jus blinks once thats all

 

one blink is your oxygen sensor, but trust me that won't stop it from running cuz my car is throwing that code now and it's running like a champ. it sounds to me that your pump crapped out on you. if so, if it's a four door,or crx you can get to the pump from either under your back seat or storage compartment. but hatches you have to drop the tank.

 

I would suggest checking the alt./sp fuse underneath the dash. If this is blown, then your car will not start and have symptoms similar to what you are saying. Replace it and see if it starts up.

If that's not it, try and provide us with some more detailed descriptions of what the car is doing/not doing when you try and start it up.

For all ef 's you have to drop the tank.

 

i jus checked all the fuses and they,re all good any other ideas?

 

well win i try to start it all i hear is two clicks from the relay,the check engine light turns on and the car cranks but no start ,the ecu blinks once but there in no fuel goin to the engine ... any more ideas.................thanks for all the advice eveyone

 

did you check for spark? sounds like your coil went out this happens alot! and without warning

story: my girl dropped me off at home we talked for ten mins she tried to start the car and nothing it will not start so check for spark and nothing switch coils and bam started right up

 

if there is no fuel getting to the motor and all the fuses are good and you don't hear your pump them it's got to be a bad pump. and if you own a four dorr lift up your back seat and you will find an access panel to your pump! i'll put money on it, or i'll admit i was wrong online.

 

if it doesn't even crank...and you hear clicking noises coming from under the dash...then check your relays...there are a few of them i believe...usually they click if their bad...at least mine did....go to a junkyard you can probably get one for free....any ofthem work from other models as long as they have that four prong terminal...thats probably your best bet considering getting a relay from this year will be hell to find anywhere else....but if your getting crank and it won't fire...you have an igniter issue...check for battery voltage to the dizz. with a test light.....its a process of elimination really....IMO following electricity isn't that much fun though.....good luck
