I have a 1993 Accord LX. I tried to start it the other day and all the lights came but the car would not start. It does not crank, or even click really. The only thing I get is one click right as I turn the key. The battery is fine and I have checked all of the fuses. I could use any ideas as to what could be wrong. Thanks.

 

Does the Check Engine Light (CEL) come on when you turn the keyswitch to ON? Do you get a click from the engine compartment each time you turn the keyswitch? If yes, the problem is likely worn starter solenoid contacts. Search recent posts on starter repair for tips on repair.

Make sure battery connections are clean and securely attached to battery.

good luck

 

how do you know that battery is fine?? did you do a load test?? new battery ?? if you are sure battery is ok, than do as tex honda suggested make sure cable are clean and tight,,
have someone try starting the car, get a big screwdriver and bang on the starter while they crank,, if it fires up you got internal starter issues

 

One click at the starter usually means that the starter solenoid isn't making a good contact to turn the starter motor. Replace the contacts and the solenoid for ~$25. It was a very simple job to do.

I got my parts from : http://stores.ebay.com/Alternator-St...enerator-Parts

You might have to email him for your specific model. He has a link on his listings to show how to install the contacts too.

Check the battery and connections as suggested, but I'll bet that the solenoid/contacts are bad.

 

Here is a pic of the new starter contacts in my Yota 'ND' starter, very easy to replace and less than $15 for the set of contacts
