hot civic no crank
hi
1991 civic dx, when hot (sometimes) stop to get gas; then no crank; all lights, gagues, radio; can hear a relay <click-click> behind the radio as I key into the starter position, but no starter action/noise at all. All is normal otherwise. Thanks, Reid |
Automatic or stick?
Automatic... check neutral start switch Manual... check clutch depress safety switch Professor www.telstar-electronics.com wrote: > hi > > 1991 civic dx, when hot (sometimes) stop to get gas; then no crank; all > lights, gagues, radio; can hear a relay <click-click> behind the radio > as I key into the starter position, but no starter action/noise at all. > All is normal otherwise. > > Thanks, > > Reid |
automatic
you mean like the lever isn't all the way in Park or N? if so, wriggled it quite vigoursly, unless the switch fails completely when it gets hot... |
I though more on this neutral start switch
after 14 yrs & 175k miles I think I just drop $35 on a new one that will be less frustrating that trying to locate my ohm meter thanks |

(loud clicks, being able to hear them from outside of the car) If so, most likely your starter is bad. |
the relay click is clearly somewhere in the dashboard area, doesn't
sound like the heavy starter solenoid, my click sounds very close to the passanger area. |
