Check the Blk/Wht wire at the starter electrical connection for 12V w/ keyswtich in ON position. If you don't have 12V, the keyswtich is faulty. If you have 12V, the starter solenoid is bad. They can be replaced, but most simply replace the entire starter.

good luck

Are we talking about a 72 Pinto?

TRUCHA, you need to tell us exactly what kind of car you have. Hondas been making Accords for about 30 years & (surprise) theyre not all the same. Most recent years there were several engine & tranny choices too. For 95-02 the V-6 was so much different from the 4-cyl that you may as well call them different cars.

Auto = check for neutral safety switch.
Manual = check the clutch switch
