I'm so stumped! I tried to start my accord and as soon as i turned the key the power died..I thought it was the battery so i bought a new one. Radio and dashlights worked, turn the key to start it, and car died..wasnt able to have power again for about 15 min. Im also unable to.clutch start it..

Please help....lol

 

sounds like battery connection. check terminals for loose wires or clamps. if it isn't that, check that all grounds as well as connection to the alternator are secure. also could be main relay but i'd check easy stuff first. hope that helps

 

Ok i checked everything...all the grounds are good..clamps good..connections are good...im thinking main relay!

 

u can resolder/clean internal contacts or find junkyard donor car. its under the dash on LH side, black or red box with terminals on bottom.

 

PGM FI main relay will not make car(die) So does the car crank? Are your shure the bat. clamps are tight? Are the clamps clean? Do you have power going to under hood fuse box? to the ing. switch? I have seen many times ware a bat. clamp would stretch and not make good contact to the bat. post. Do you have power to the starter? Do you have a test lit. a dvom? Did you have the old bat, tested befor replacing. Ok next time this hapens go under hood and try to twist the bat. cables and post what hapens joe

 

hmmm im going to see if im gettiNg power to those parts..im going to check tonight and post tomorrow...i will hold off on getting the main relay for now...

 

Car wont even crank it makes the noise like it will and then all power gone!
