95 Accord Ex

The battery and battery fuse are tested and are good but the car is not starting and it is also not getting any power-

When you first re-connect the battery, the car clicks as you turn the key and the dash lights flicker- but everytime we try to start it after there is nothing when we turn the key. I thought it could be the starter but the headlights dont even come on.

 

I thinks its something electrical but I don't know where to start looking and testing

 

IF you have load tested your battery and it tests well, then you need to test the starter relay. If the starter relay tests good, disconnect and clean all wiring from starter and battery and reconnect. Test the starter a bad starter may require more current to start the car than a good one.


Can you jump start the car? If so, it is usually the battery, starter, or bad electical connections

 

Its an automatic, but where is the starter relay

 

jump start, not roll start....

 

Also sounds like a possible loose ground. That could cause a single click and then no power to anything.

Sounds very possible

 

Just curious, when they tested you battery, what voltage did it show? I just had a reoccuring "no start condition" with my 91 and my battery tested at 12.79 volts. I could get interior lights, radio, etc but no start, the starter solenoid would just click rapidly. Tried replacing the battery and everything is a go. The new batteries voltage check at 14.58 volts. Maybe this will help I don't know. Makes you wish these damn cars came with a battery voltage gauge instead of the idiot light.
