yeh, maybe i can make it when im there next time. the "temp fix" by the mechanic should hold for a while.


here is the diagram for the 2002 accord ~ #8 is the +terminal cable that goes to the fuse and starter


here is the diagram for the 2003 accord ~E-7

doesnt specifically show a +terminal cable except under "E-7" which im guess is detailed in another diagram which i cannot find. the closest thing i can find is under the parts of "engine wire harness" which is the "sub wire starter" assembly which contains parts called "bolt & nut battery terminal" so i'm thinking that connects to the +terminal of the battery.

what the guy did as a temp fix, i dont see why that cant be a permanent fix if he just cut the terminal off and crimped on a new one. if i put some di-electric grease and shrink tube it, that should keep it from corroding no? im going to have my gf take a pic of the +terminal and the cable that extends from it.

again, thanks so much for everyones imput!!!
