  • Car Will Not Start!

    Ok boys and girls heres the deal...

    Car was running fine. Turned it off lastnight. Now wont start.

    Main relay does not click.

    Tried 3 differ main relays that are known to be good.

    No Spark/No fuel.

    Put power directly from battery to the main relay power nwire. Car starts and runs fine. But if I turn the car off and crank it again it will not start.

    If I take the power wire off and put it back on it turns on right away.

    Im clueless. Swapped engine harness, ecu, battery, checked all the fuses, swapped dizzy..

    Any ideas? It has headlight fluid, vtec fluid, muffler bearing all the bullshit so don't waste your time asking.

              did u check for oil on the secondary dip stick? jk i know you said you checked fuses but double check ecu fuse in the bay, if im not mistaken ecu gives power to main relay

                  well your on the right track.. you know that the main relay is not getting power so trace back to the source and see what you find. if its obd2 im 98.6555% sure that ecu gives power to relay. and its a 15a fuse under hood first one all the way to left up top

                  then again if your feeding power directly to main relay and it starts then the ecu fuse would be fine. if anything trace wire and look for a break

                    Thats the plan Mark. Im gonna go check the ignition switch to see if it's sending power.

                          Not enough blinker fluid shuts the ecu down because of unsafe driving without blinkers. I'd check the levels...

                            ^ levels are filled to max with D0T 4.
