So i have a 93 hatch swapped with a b16a. I stalled the car tonight at a light, it wasnt a rough stall but it still died, when i first tried to re-start the car all it would do is crank. So i stopped and tried again and it fired up and i made it home.

Now that its home it doesnt want to start at all. what i have noticed is that when i go to turn the key in the ignition nothing happens. For example all the lights that flash on your dash before the car starts, the heat/ac panel lights up briefly then dims out. So basically im assuming im not getting fuel or spark on it. Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong here? kinda sucks cause i got this car less then a month ago.

 

bump b4 bed. please help me

 

If the lights dim out, looks like you might need to jump start it (battery might not be fully charged). Try that first and make sure you have a fully charged battery. After your sure you have a fully charged battery and it doesn't start check your fuses.

 

its not the lights or radio that dim out... it the ac/heater buttons, ya know how they light up usually lol well when i turn the key they light up then dim out like theres something wrong.. idfk i guess im going to go start pulling fuses.

someone on here has had to of had this happen b4

 

so checked all the fuses and nada. everything is all good there. I know its not the battery because like i said my radio works. its just when i put the key in the second on position nothing happends... my cluster doesnt light up, my ac/heat doesnt turn on. could this possibly be an ignition switch problem?

 

does the cel turn on also? then turn off? might not be getting primed

 

lol like i said nothing happens when i put the key in the on position. no dash lights no priming nothing.

 

Check your ignition switch.

 

The Ignition switch or Main Fuse under the Hood will have same affect try to put a different battery anyway to make sure because if you have no lights turning on its a an electrical component. Even with a bad ecu the dash lights still all turn on

 

it was the 50 watt fuse under the hood...the big guy fried and some stupid other electrical issues.. thanks everyone for the idears
