hello all,

This is my first post on this forum.


I just picked up a 1995 accord ex 4cly automatic for 300 bucks.

one of the issues is that it will not stat.

i go to turn the key over and i get nothing.

the p/o stated that he put a new battery and starter in the vehicle. then one day he couldnt start the vehicle...


Is there anything i need to check that would sound like a sure fire easy answer? im not new to cars just new to this issue.

I would assume that if the bendix was messed up on the alt that it would still try to crank correct?

 

Disconnect the small wire going to the starter and check for 12V when you turn the key to start the car.

Also, do you hear anything when you turn the key to start the car? Do the electronics turn on in the car when you turn the key to the II position, but do not try to start the car?

 

ok will check that...


and yes, the radio comes on, dome light comes on, it makes the beep beep beep

no dash lights (already an issues i need to address)

 

300 $$$ car, man my starter cost me $315.00

 

you are special, thanks for adding such helpful information to the thread.

OP report back after you test for 12 volts at the small wire on the starter when you turn the key.

 

congrats, you just wasted 25 seconds of my life with your useless information, why dont you troll somewhere else

 

Update, no 12 v going to starter. Is there a fuse I'm not thinking of/

 

Is this an auto or manual trans?

 

He said its an auto.

Try shifting the car into neutral and trying to start the car.

Do the brake lights work properly?

 

Would help if I knew how to read a little better (where is that hammer on head icon?),,,,,,,sorry. You knew where I was going
