Car will not start battery and starter good.
Hey guys I have a 92 civic dx, with the stock d15 on it no mods. Two days ago I tried to start it and nothing, no click no sound at all. I have a new battery in there and I already took off the starter and took it to advance auto parts and they tested it but it was good. The weird thing is that it will start when i push start it. What could the problem be? Thanks in advance.
is it a 5 speed? if it is then look on the pedal there is a clutch switch and there is a rubber plug that tends to fail out and causing the switch not to engage so you can put a paper clip in the connector for the switch to jump it but be warned it will crank if in gear and take off so make sure its out of gear and hold the clutch in . Or the switch is bad , if this is a automatic might be safety switch try cranking it in neutral .
if all checks well I would take a test light and see when you turn the key to crank it powers the test light when you hook the test light to the small start wire
also make sure you have power going to the big starter wire also
a friend of mine has this same problem. his battery was new so it wasn't that. he took it to a shop and they said the alternator gave out.
this doesn't make sense my friend , unless your saying battery was new and it drained it down due to alternatorOriginally Posted by oreign
uh, i'm not sure. i just kind of half-ass summarized what i was told lol
I see lololol
it might be your distributor...
really he is saying its not clicking or nothing cmon you know that isn't a dizzy
Yes its a 5spd. Ifbit was the distributor it wouldnt crank when I push start it would it?
correct don't listen to that guy either he is drunk or just retarded
do the test I said and get back to me!!
About to do it right now.
Theres no rubber piece, what else could I use besides a paper clip?
you can get a small bolt with a nut and put that in the hole just make sure the bolt isnt to long and use the head of the bolt to the switch part
Yesssssssss thank you mr tech5, you were right. I went to look and found little blue pieces of rubber in the floor. I used the bolt like you said and bam it started right up. Once again thanks man, +6 for you.
no problem that was my good deed for today lol
Lol man am I glad I didnt pay the guys at goodyear $95 to do an "electrical system diagnosis"
true true
Hondas are gay like that i like Nissans you can have a bad switch or just unplug and it will still start lol
yea honda is gay!..
