Battery and starter are fine on 96 Honda Accord. Turn key to start and not even a click. All power is fine. Jumped car to start by using a hot wire to the starter. Any suggestions. Was thinking a starter relay?
This may be due to a bad neutral safety switch, is this car automatic or manual transmission?
If automatic try to start in neutral and if manual try to locate switch on clutch pedal and use a jumper wire to jump connector for switch, NOTE; If switch is jumped car will start in gear with pedal not pushed down and car will take off so this is just as a test not a repair!!!!!, good day
Thankyou Johnny, Yes it is a automatic, and I did try to start it in neutral. No luck..This started this Thursday and thought it was the positive battery cable. Fixed that with a new battery connector and worked great for two days and then it happened again. Jumped the starter with a hot wire to get home. with that in mind I was thinking a relay of some sort that is going bad..Is there a way to jump the Neutral safety switch on an automatic like u described on the manual?
Before we try to jump that switch can you test the black wire with white stripe for power when you are in the crank mode and tell me if you get power to that wire when trying to start car. this wire is the starter wire which comes from ignition switch, you will need to pull steering column covers. the wire then goes to the anti theft cut relay under left side of the dash, if this car has this if not then wire goes to the under hood relay box and from there to starter, i need you to test at ignition switch connector and at the same time try to wiggle rear of switch and see if that works, these cars have ignition switch problems, not the key part but at the rear of the cylinder that is the ignition switch, here is a wiring diagram also to help you, and to jump the neutral switch you will jump the red /white wire to the black wire as i labeled in the diagram but if you do not have power leaving the ignition then jumping neutral switch wont help, let me know if you get power from ignition,
i wanted to send the wiring diagram but there is no way of doing this on the reply comment, i will see if there is another way to send it.
found the reason. It was the starter relay cut off next to the main relay, but thanks for the pointers

Yes, it sounds like your solenoid is bad and staying engaged against the flywheel, you could do an amperage draw and a voltage drop test to find out for sure, but you will need an DVOM and a amp clamp. Or you could take it into an auto parts store and they will test it for free. Hope this helps.

either have a shop scan it for trouble codes or buy a scanner your self at local parts store have OBDII scanner and find out for your self it could be a number of things.

Sounds either like the solenoid on the starter is bad or the starter its self.First try turning on your head lights and then trying to start it.If it starts then you have some bad connections either on the battery or the starter. next if that doesnt work Try hitting the starter with a hammer while someone else cranks it.If it starts then the starter is bad..

Hi
Replace the copper contacts inside the starter motor, it connects the current to the rotor once the bendix drive gear is engaged with the ring gear.
