2005 Honda Odyssey: changing battery terminals. The positive terminal has a jump start wire. Can all three positive terminal wires be twisted together for new terminal?

Something is depleting the battery or the problem is the battery itself. (Those power antenna is the worst depletion of battery.) Unplug the negative terminal for five minutes and see if it starts or just unplug the negative terminal and charge the battery for ten minutes and then reconnect the negative to see if it starts. (Insert car key and turn to the second position.) Once, I even have a wire from the Starter's positive side ready to contact the battery positive. The car started this way.

Assuming top post battery terminals, sometimes where the cable enters the terminal end corrosion builds up. Take it apart and wire brush everything real good. Always tighten the positive first then the negative. They make battery corrosion protection spray but grease or petroleum jelly works good too. If that doesn't do it, check if it has an aftermarket alarm system. That may be killing the start circuit. Good Luck!

you may have a bad thread you could stack washers or replace conector.

dear,

Check for the loose connections.
I guess whie installing the main fuse has blown off....kindly look into it and get it replaced.

thanx

Try starting in Neutral instead of Park. If this works, the transmission range switch (sometimes called a neutral safety switch) is faulty in Park.

Next, you can try a remote start switch (available at auto parts stores) or a jumper wire to bypass the ignition switch. First make sure transmission is in park or neutral. You will be jumping from the battery positive terminal to the starter solenoid. The starter solenoid terminal has a black wire with a white stripe connected to it. (This terminal is visible just to the left of the automatic transmission dipstick tube.) Remove this wire and connect one end of the remote start switch wire (or jumper wire) to it. Connect the other end of the remote start switch wire to the battery positive terminal. Activate the remote start switch and see if the starter will crank. (If using a jumper wire, briefly touch the other end to the battery positive terminal and see if cranking will occur). If the starter works then you have a problem in the ignition switch, or starter cut-out relay.

The starter cut-out relay is located on the back of the driver's under dash fuse/relay box in the left wall kick panel. The ignition switch also has wire leads that plug into the back of this same fuse box. You can disconnect the wire leads and test the ignition switch with on ohm meter from this point.

Disconnect the battery terminals (negative first, positive second), and then vigorously wire brush the endings at the contact point to the battery, and the battery terminals as well.

One might also have the battery tested, and the starter tested at the local parts store or Battery Reseller (Sears, Walmart).

probably the wiring. Always check the simple things first. check that all terminals and connections are good, then check for obvious signs of wear in the wiring and put a voltmeter on the wiring from the battery to the starter to see if has broken down at all

Hi mate this is an easy wiring diagram to use and you only have one flasher unit for both flasher and Hazard operations. Sorry for taking so long to answer bit buzzy. I have a circuit stored some where in my brain for a two flasher unit also but this one is the most simplest you will get.

Remember to fuse the Ignition wire. Ask the supplier which contacts are negative and positive on the flasher, don't mix them up you will blow up the flasher. If the dash lights aint working run a wire parrallel to those wires from the circuits left and right (two terminal Type). Some flashers have a build in (three terminal Type) dash signal terminal.

you probably had a bad earth or positive battery terminal
