My honda civic won't start?
So yesterday i try turning on my car and i notice that i left my light on so i try jumping it my stepdad put the cables the wrong way and now i charge the battery but it won't start
There's a fuse for the battery make sure its not blown
Putting the jumper cables on the wrong way can short out man of your cars electronics including the ecu/ecm
Check all fuses. ECM most likely isn't blown as the 1 guy said. There's a fuse to it that will blow first. Pull out all the ignition fuses because there are fuel pump fuses ignition fuses ECM computer fuses starter relay etc. Just check them all. You didn't blow the car or engine. They are designed to blow. I'm sure he didn't leave the cables on very long after seeing it spark up. It's an easy self fix. Just takes some learning time to pull each one out and check which one. Also most cars have a fusable link coming off the battery. I would check that first. Search where it is on your car.
The fusible link has been blown. You have to stop by an auto parts store for a new one. They are not that expansive.
- My 1983 Honda nighthawk 650 won't start with the electric start? I recently replaced the ignition coils because the old ones were getting heat soaked and the bike would die, however now the bike won't start with the electric start it turns over fin and the starter sounds fine but it won't start occasionally it ll start when it's cold or try to but I've been having to bump start it in order to ride it. So what's making it do this? Could it be the kill switch? Or something else?
- I have a Honda HRX217 push mower. Backfired when trying to start it, now it won't start? It was running, then I shut it off to open and close a gate, and when I went to start it again there was a really loud backfire and now it won't start. It will sound like it's almost about to start but not. Then get progressively weaker each pull. I changed the spark plug and cleaned the air filter. Any ideas?
- I have a Honda Harmony HRB215 K4 SDA that won't pull start but if I take off the recoil and drill start it, it runs perfect? I have a Honda Harmony HRB215 K4 SDA that won't pull start but if I take off the recoil and drill start it, it runs perfect. I did a compressin test, the pull start only gets the mower to 60psi but the drill gets the mower to 150psi. This mower does have a decompression vale where the ehaust opest about 1/8 of the way. I tore the ead off and checked and cleaned the valves. They don't stick open. Could there be an issue with the decompression valve? Or would it be the piston rings?
- How come my atv won't electric start but will crank if I push start it? 2006 Honda trx. Doesn't have a pull rope only electric start. The starter motor turns over the engine but just won't start but I'll push it down the yard with it in gear and it will fire right up. I'm so confused by this.
