ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    I know its not a CB7, but any help wud be appreciated

    I have a 1989 Honda Accord EX-i Coupe.

    So i picked up the car on Saturday, drove no problem. Tried starting it late that night, it struggled for a second then started right up.....turned it off and started it up again a few more times no problems. Keep in mind i live in the GTA, and yesterday and today it was COLD, -8 C.

    Tonight i was going to bring it in my garage to clean it up a bit, and it wudent start.....wudent even turn over.....lights in the interior were very dim, and after a while wudent even turn on....cudent even pop up my headlights.

    Now look at this:




    The battery is brand new. I dont know the exact name of the wire that is connected to the positive terminal, but i know that the previous owner had damaged it somehow and patched it up with tape, and started no problem when i had it driven down to my house.

    So what can be the problem? Bad connection? Didnt freak out when this happened, because im already going to a Honda dealership tommorow to buy a power steering hose and a timing belt, so any help would be great.

    Thanks

    Thats the battery cable and it may just have been touching the body somewhere and grounding itself out to cause the battery to die and the cable to fry itself.
