    Default Help! 99 civic ex

    ok so like 3 months ago, my car got messed up..it would run for awhile then shut off and the main relay would just click a couple times, oil light and battery light stay lit, as if i was to have the key in the on position...but then when i try and restart it just trys to turn over and just..click click click click...so i got a new ecu, new dizzy, new sparkplugs, new oil pump..and a speed sensor, cause honda said it needed all of this..with the 95$ check up. Ohh and i needed a new fuse box...witch is freaking retarted..whens the last time your fuse box just needed to all be replaced...anways...it magicly fixed my problem...well... for about a week and a half..now it does the same shit.. what could it be??? any other ideas...

    If you have a short somewhere it could be just killing the Batt. Try replace the Batt and see if it cranks... Thats Just something to try on your own... ..

    Its a Idea, Also I have seen troubles with ignition switches going bad on Hondas, But your car sounds a little different... But from what I have seen if you had a short in the chargeing system then it would slowly drain the Batt. That causeing you to come out one day and Click, Click,Click.. Thats why I said to put a New Batt. in it... If it don't work then Post Back...
