Just a couple of minutes ago while working, I looked out the window, and see some [freak]er with half his arm in my window, but my alarm is not going off, and my beeper never went off either. I ran downstairs as fast as I could, but the [freak]er saw me comming and took off running with what seem to be a jumperbox. He jumped in a white EG, but the tailgate was down, so I couldnt see the plate. I just called the cops, and locked my car again, but my car has no power at all, and the battery is connected, and it looks like the hood was never popped!

WTF did he just do to my car?

 

BTW before you ask.. Yes the car does have a hood pin, and the battery is good.

 

I'm assuming your car has a proximity sensor?

MAGIC!!! no jk, they must of disconnected something on your car that you haven't seen yet. thats some weird stuff that just happened to you, glad your car is ok

 

did he steal your ecu?

 

haha nice save. and if he only got his arm in, then how could he have possibly caused this problem??

 

maybe your battery died, that would explain no power and no alarm

 

im thinking he got to your ignition system, and cut some wires... i think that's how to hotwire it, my buddy got his em1 stolen from in front of his house and they cut they **** out of those wires... im wondering why he didnt get in your car if half his arm was already in there, and what was he going to do once he got in? leave his car there???

 

check the main power fuse under the hood , i heard there is a way to like put a short in the system some how to blow that fuse this was nothing will go off

 

actually its very easy to hot wire a civic i can see the wires that need to be connected to hot wire the car when you take that plastic cover around the ignition switch off im not going to mention color/location of the wires because im not trying to teach people to hot wire a car. Did you try to get a jump?? or hook up a DMM and see if you have any power..

 

Well, I just got the car home.

ECU is fried, brain for the alarm is fried, and there are a bunch of blown fuses. I'm still changing stuff up to see if the car starts, but for now I guess I'll have to drive my EP.

 

I just been told I might have to replace my entire electrical system. If I ever see that HB again, I'm going to set it on fire!!!!

 

Bogus. [freak] thieves.

 

yea, sounds like he defly firend something with that jump box....sucks

 

at least you still have the car man

 

Yea, glad it didn't get stolen. You think about fixing it yourself?

 

Don't light the hatch on fire, beat the driver to a bloody pulp and spare the car....then sell it to me...cheap.

That's shitty about your car though.

 

They used something like a coat hanger, bent it at a 90 degree angle, and put it under your hood, then made it contact both positive and negative terminals on your battery. Get some type of cover over your terminals

 

I still have no idea. My friends said that maybe they burned all my electrical by using the jumper box that he was running with. Then I started thinking how were they going to move the car if they burned all my electrical. Then it hit me! There was a black, repo style towtruck all the way at the end on the parking lot, but I didn't think anything at the moment.

I'm taking the day off tomorrow. I guessing I'll be at the junkyard all day tomorrow taking off all the parts needed.

 

dang dude, that definitely sucks that your whole electrical system is fried. if you see the eg again, just nuke it haha

 

sounds like you probably pissed someone off and they were getting revenge, cause why would he fry your system if he was planning on stealing it?

 

Check your main relays under the hood, maybe your ignition ground fuse is fried, that can cause no power to the car too.
