OK, last night I was getting in my car from the movies...I noticed my alarm was set off becuase when i deactivated it, it chirped 3 times...did a walk-around...nothing missing or damaged...then, I got in the car and tried to start it, but it WOULDN'T START!....as in NO POWER AT ALL.....no lights, no radio, dashlights, nothing....so I locked it up and got a ride home with my frined and decided to tackle this problem in the morning...

Well, it's now afternoon time, and I can't figur out what's going on with it...nothing like this has ever happened to it..nuthing is missing or out of place as far as I can tell...it's a 99 Civic w/ B16...checked the battery, and it's fine..i'm thinking it may be a fuse, but which fuse would cause absolutely no power at all?

Someone out there, please help me!!!

 

who wired your alarm?

 

alarm's been wired up like 4 years ago...didn't have any problems with it..

 

R jo0 getting power to the starter? A simple way to try this is to take your jumper cables and just connect the power side (+) to one end and the other to your starter connection. If your batter is good and its not the alarm stuff then it should at least turn the starter

 

there is a fuse for the battery under the hood. At least 3rd gen preludes use a fused battery, so I'd assume it could be a possiblilty.

 

i'd check main fuse.

 

Main Relay died, starter cable fell loose, battery's dead, fuse is blown...

 

Yeah sounds like a single point of failure if everything is completely dead. If the battery is putting out enough juice. Something should light up. The starter should definitely click.

 

thanks forall the responses guys!

guess what?? I checked all my fuses and everything, and I was just about to give up when I checked my battery ground...the one coming right from the terminal to the top spring mount pillar....it was loose!!

so now it's all nice and back like it was before...he,he..
