Hey guys. Tonight, Me and my friend were gonna wire up a Kill Switch on his 96 Integra. And now the car doesn't start up AT ALL. I have previously wired up my WRX and a few other cars.
Heres what i did.

The yellow wire off of the Fuel Pump, i cut that to its in 2 pieces ( - - ) like that. I then put a male and female connector onto the pieces, and he started it up. Then out of my stupidity and not thinking cause of the cold weather, I unplugged the male/female while the car was still on and it died out. So i continued onto wire up the switch, and once that was complete, the car wouldn't turn on. It would turn over, but it wouldn't start, like there was no fuel in the lines.

I tried the on/off positions on the switch, and no luck on either end. So i unplugged the whole switch and plug the first male/female connectors from the yellow wire back together, and tried starting the car up, but it didn't start and just turned over.

So i removed the male/female connectors and put back the original wire to how it was in the beginning, and still it doesn't start up.

The car just turns over and clicks, and doesn't start up at all.

So we trouble-shooted and retraced all the steps to see where we went wrong, but everything is connected back and is how it was in the beginning. We called up a few friends, that are pro at making wiring harnesses and ecu stuff, and they told us to check all the fuses and see if the fuel pump still runs (which it does).

So right now the car is just sitting and we are stuck.

Does ANYONE have any solutions or hints of what to do?? I'm gonna be calling Honda and visiting some junk yards to see if i can pick up another harness or relay for the pump and try and make it work.

Thanks guys

 

Try priming the fuel pump. I do this by turning the key all the way to the accesory position, wait for the click and the CEL to go off. Turn the key to the full off position, and repeat 3 or 4 times.

Try that.

ya...i did that earlier. And every time, the fuel pump made a noise like it was pressurizing. So i figured that the pump was still in working order.

thanks though.

 

check your main relay. it is under the dash on the driver side, right behind the hood release. there is a way to test it in the haynes book. you might also want to check your distributor, it is tied in with your fuel pump. good luck

 

thanks zerob16...i'll check that later.

Anyone else? Please!

 

you might want to check that the switch isnt too big for it what kind of switch you use

 

I try not to wire kill switches from anything under the hood, there are plenty ways to wire up a good kill switch just underneath the dash. I found this out when having to remove an alarm system, that no longer functioned properly.
