I have a 2004 honda accord lx. The car lately has been having trouble starting if you leave it for the weekend or if you try to start it in the morning. It starts like its a dead battery so i replaced the battery not it. I tested to see if the alternator was dieing took the power off well it was running still good. Its not the starter because after it starts in the morning it will not have any more prob the rest of the day. Im thinking do hondas have a cold start injector could that be failing. Im also thinking something is grounding its self out and draining the battery so maybe i need to test the ohm's on the battery to see if anything is pulling the power from the battery. Basically i need ideas to see what else i can test before i bring it in for work.

 

Need more info. When it has a problem starting cold, does the starter turn the engine slower than normal? Or does the starter turn the engine at the normal speed but the engine just doesn't start?

 

Please describe how it is not starting in the morning? Is the starter not spinning the engine when you go to start the car? Or will the car not fire up (when you release the key and the engine is running).

The diagnosis depends on what the starter is doing when you turn the key to start the car.

 

it will try to start and then not start like when you have a dead battery try to start but does not make it so yes the starter is turning but after a few trys it will start but then the rest of the day it will never have a prob. and yes it starts slower then normal but again the rest of the day is normal

hopefully this is the info you wanted please let me know if i need more i hope im describing it properly
