Honda Repair: Starter relay location, battery cables, starter relay
QuestionHave starting problems with my 2005 civic lx. I replaced the starter and it worked for about 3 starts. Car no longer starting. Batter is good, fuel pump kicks on when turn the key but get nothing. I think it may be starter relay but don't know where it is. Heard it may be under glove box, if so, how do I access it..and could this be the problem?
AnswerYou need to do a thorough test of your starting and charging systems. This includes cleaning and tightening the battery cables, load testing the battery and alternator etc. I have an ebook guide that will take you through all of these tests step by step. It is located here:
No Start Testing Guide
It could be a relay but that is unlikely as they are generally pretty reliable. It could also be an ignition system problem, but I think if you go through the testing you will find your problem.
