My husband recently hit a dog along the highway in his 91 honda accord. It bent the radiator frame and busted some hoses and now the car wont start. We were wondering if there was a kill switch that could have been activated since the accident of if the car is junk now. If it makes a difference the person we bought the car from placed a 92 prelude motor in the car. We have the new radiator with hoses and fixed the frame but don't want to install the radiator if the car will not run afterwards. Any suggestions?

 

You're going to have to be a lot more specific as to what the damage was, what was replaced, and what the problem is.

Does it get fuel?
Does it get spark?
Do the accessories turn on?
Does it try to turn over?
etc

From the factory there is no kill switch in the Accord.

 

it does try and turn over. the accessories do come on. it seems to be getting fuel. not sure about if it is sparking or not. But it was all front end damage there were a couple of hoses that broke the bumper was ripped off and the radiator frame slightly bent.
