This is a sensor problem..the mechanic who did the work should have reset it. another way is to remove the hot wire (RED) battery cable and try to start with out the cable on. Reconnect and try to start. if you still get--code needed --call the place that did the work.

SOURCE: 95 honda civic timing belt replacement process

If you have never changed a cambelt (timing belt) then it is not recommended that you attempt it. It is a job for a mechanic, as getting the cam timing wrong on reassembly is easy to do and can have disastrous consequences. It is easy enough once you know how, and if you are reasonably mechanically able, I'd suggest getting a repair manual for your vehicle that has a step by step procedure for timing belt replacement. Companies like Haynes produce very good repair manuals.

SOURCE: 1991 Honda Civic. Starter works, engine will not fire.

If you're not getting any spark, it may be the coil or the igniter, both of which are located inside the distributor.
If no fuel, you may have a problem with your main relay.
Check out tegger.com for more information on these components as well as other possibilities.

The factory sound system has a coded theft protection system. It is recommended that you know your reset code before you begin.

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Remove all wiring from harness.
  3. Remove the lower radiator hose from the bracket on the starter motor.
  4. Remove the starter cable from terminal B located on the back of the solenoid.
  5. Remove the black/white wire from the S (solenoid) terminal.
  6. Remove the two bolts that mount the starter to the transaxle assembly.
  7. Remove the starter.

To install:
  1. Install in the reverse order of removal.
When installing the heavy gauge starter cable, make sure the crimped side of the terminal end is facing out.
  1. Enter the anti-theft code and radio presets.

I hope help you with this (rated this help). Good luck.

I have a 95 honda civic ex,wont start.ran fine yesterday,wont start this morning.battery is fully charged,new cap and rotor.would do u think might b my problem

if it wont turn over 1st check the ground s on the car and the battery 1st. your battery can be fully charged and the car will not start even over night this can happen. then look at the starter. Note: if you have over 109K on the car and the timing belt has never been replaced you will need to have this checked as well.

Btw, Iā€™m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/tom_db3a51ff0ca57f20

2005 honda civic replaced starter .it started right up for a couple of days now just cranks and won't start?

Tapping the starter is just a test,then you replace it as you did

So the starter issue is resolved

No check to see if you have fuel pressure at the motor
when you cycle the key

Also check for spark or injector pulse when cranking

If you have a relay for starter switch it with a similar one

Wow, hope all this was not done to fix this problem? If the problem showed up after the timing belt, I would say the timing belt is a tooth off. If it broke a timing belt, a valve might be bent. If all this was done to solve this problem, you need to find a better mechanic to diagnose it.
