Ok so i bought a 91 hatch and soon we had to replace the alternator belt because it was literally shredded anyways we replaced the belt and drove it home now the car won't start it will not even try to start i believe its the battery so we got a new one but i don't think i put it in right or something cause it still wont start at all please help, thanks


p.s. new to the honda scene so please be descriptive

 

check your main fuses above the battery, sounds like you may have blown one if it has no power at all...

 

how do i check the fuse? and how do i replace them, how much would it be?

 

The battery fuse i believe is one of the big ones held down by two screws. Right way to test it is to see if it has continuity with an ohm meter. Easy way to test is see if the piece of metal is seperated through the window on the top. They are like 3 bucks to replace them.

 

check your grounds too.... i went through 3 batteries 2 alternators and 2 starters before i found that my engine grounds were just barely attached....cleaned those up and its been problem free since
