Starting//Ignition Problem 2004 Honda Accord 2.4L I-Vtec DOHC

USA spec car in USA? not told
2.3L inline 4 banger.DOHC +VVT cam. 5sp, M/T
nor real name of the box told.
Vtec is honda name for VVT, valve variable timing, and is not a transmission part at all so is off topic if we want to do 1 at a time.
a wise idea that, leaks are your problem.as all are.
your post seem clueless, here, find a real shop and get it fixed?
vtech bad causes huge engine power loss, for sure stuck in idle mode. so lets end that here.
and talk the box, what box 5 speed is it
not told at all
honda says 5speed is a manual transmission M/T
the silly cable to it is bad.
end story, endless.
2 cables clutch release snapped i gear. makes it hard to shift if you do not move car bay hand to N./ (a trick to lean 2 man job) as all tow truck drivers know for 100 years.
shift cable bad. (or levers to it)
see this first photo , one can drop off links to that #8 part and shift the box by hand, sure can and if can the box end is good .
box means transmission box in whole.,, mech jargon.
all this is pure mechanics 101 problem shifting any M/T is.
photo 2 is lever #2 id and cable set 6
one if bad, looking only finds it as is 100% pure mechanical parts.
end to end. no brains no CPU or TCM brains here, just real gears and levers and flex steel cables that love to fail not lubed regular.

Ignition is a possibility. Another place to look is the neutral start switch mounted on the transmission.

42 inch pounds. Start at the middle of the cam/s and work your way out. You don't have to, but I start by snugging the bolts up (no order. Then toque them down. Then double check, starting at the middle again.

need to pull the ABS codes to see where the problems are.

CHECK VTEC SWITCH OIL PRESSURE.SHOULD BE 50 PSI @3000 RPM FOR THE S2000 OIL PRESSURE SHOULD BE 85 PSI @ 3000 RPM. IF OIL PRESSURE OKAY HAVE TO BE EITHER VTEC SWITCH FAULTY OR VTEC SOLENOID HAS FAILED.SOME TIMES PCM HAS FAILED TO THAT CONTROL CIRCUIT.

It should be clearer from this illustration, they go through the back of the valve cover on the non-VTEC and the front on the VTEC as shown.

Make sure your plugs are getting spark. If not, check your starter and your ignition to make sure they are functioning properly.

The fuel filter need to be check probably there is dirt in it,and that means it is not getting enough fuel.

Most of these Accords had two recalls pertaining to the ingnition switch. There is an interlock issue, and an electrical portion of the ignition switch recall. I would start by replacing the electrical portion of the ignition switch as this will most times fix this issue. The clicking noise may indicate an issue with the starter however. Would advise having a starting and charging system test at a professional repair facility to check the starter, but the ignition issue would be where i would start.

SOUNDS LIKE THE FUEL RELAY, I BELIEVE IT'S LOCATED UNDER THE DASH, ON THE LEFT SIDE NEAR THE STEERING COLUMN.
