Have someone turn the key while you listen for the fuel pump to come on in the fuel tank. it should only come on for a few seconds if not than your fuel pump is bad.

Check the wiring in the front and back to lights for shorts to ground, if nothing is found replace the turn signal switch, be careful to disarm the airbag before doing any work on the column as the steering wheel must be pulled to replace the turn switch.

The FuseLink is blown. It is a 100 AMP in-line fuse on the red wire from the alternator.

1994 honda accord lx battery light comes on &am & engine looses power what can be the problem?

I would check alternator, does the car stay running if you unplug the battery + after starting it? the car should stay running with alternator power alone if the car dies alternator is bad. if it does not you have to check ignition, fuel delivery or compression.

96 Accord LX, 2.2L. Wouldn't start. Replaced Starter. Replaced Battery. It drives for a little while. Turn it off and it won't start again. Help? Please?

The distributor is a high failure rate item on Hondas if I had to guess I would guess the distributor is the culprit. good luck.

Where is the brain box in a 92honda accord lx ? My honda keeps dying while driving then wont start till after ot sits for a while answers?

Your engine computer 'brain box' is located under the carpet on the front passenger's side floorboard. If the car keeps dying it's probably the main relay or distributor is bad, not the computer.

Have 97 acura won't stay charge changed battery

the battery wont stay charged? if youre putting in a fully charged battery and your car runs, but then the battery slowly dies, the problem will be your alternator. the alternator is what maintains a car batteries charge. try replacing the alternator. hope this helps.
