I have a problem with my 1996 ex. After the car is warm it won't start. I've replaced the icm and took the main relay out and none of the sauders are messed up. I need my car back running it's the only car in my house with me my fiancé and our two kids. Please help me. I'm desperate here. Thank you

 

Sounds like a classic main relay issue.

Sometimes hard to spot a bad solder joint:

Do you have access to a known good main relay? If so, substitute
it and see what happens.

 

Ok. I've read a lot about them not starting I'm hot wheather. Mine doesn't change with the wheather. It's only when the motor warms up. Do you still think it could be the main relay? ? Thanks for helping

 

Madvladcivic is correct. The soldering on your relay maybe slightly cracked, the weather does affect the problem but it being used also causes the relay to slightly warm up which might cause the only slight connection it has to break free once the relay gets warm. Just swap it out for a known working one and see if that solves your problem.goodluck and keep us posted.

 

Thank you. I'll do that after work today. I'm glad I joined here seems like people actually care and want to help me. Thanks again

 

Similar thing happend to my car when warm it ended up being the distributor, the ignitor was on its way out.

 

I found it simpler to just buy a new one from honda, quite cheap

 

What did you used to confirm if it the "solder" points were good?

 

I didn't really. My dad used to work on circuit boards and I had him take a look at it. And he didn't see any broken connectors.
