92 Accord LX - wont turn over wont crank

[MeChelle369]

I have a 92 Honda Accord 5 speed - has been running fine, but wldn't crank (it was driven 4 other times today) Noticed one crank that wasnt smooth other wise all were fine. Went to crank later on and it would not start or turn over- can pop the clutch and it will run. Lights are bright and radio comes on. but no clicking from starter even after tapping. Used a screwdriver--- would spin but not kick out.

Should I go toward starter or selenoid.

Any suggestions...

take off ur starter get it tested....if its bad then hey look at that its off just get a new one...but if the starter is good, then go to plan b...

[MeChelle369]

so what would plan b be?

I hope that it is just the selenoid cause those are so much cheaper

wait do you have a check engine light on when you turn the key? or tryy to start the car?..

[MeChelle369]

no only lights are the SRS, brake, seatbelt and oil (oil is fine- checked level)

then plan b is the selenoid....but just check starter some times they go out quick with out a sign.....sometimes..

I have a feeling the starter has seized on you.

Fact that you can clutch start it and the engine starts and behaves normal confirm that its the starter.

Haha.. but yes in my opinion its 99% your Starter

:: def going to take it tomorrow and have it looked at.
can they tell testing the starter if its the starter or just the selenoid? not sure about that.

do you know of any reputable online sites that would sale a reman for a lot less then what the part stores want?

[MeChelle369]

yea, def think its starter related.

This car has been giving me lots of issues lately..
starter thing. a/c fuse blew(replaced). main fan acts a fool and works when it wants to.

I AGREE WITH THE STARTER THEORY MAN CHECK OUT DAT STARTER BRUH. http://s893.photobucket.com/albums/a...21/MY%20HONDA/

I'd just get a second hand starter or a reconditioned one.

If it turns out its not the starter (the 1% error of margin) then dont worry. Starters are items you want to have in your garage. So 24hrs peace of mind you have a vital replacement part.

A spare starter and alternator are 2 components i suggest everyone with 2nd hand CB's or Honda's (over 10 years old) should have. They can get you out of tight and terrible places (night time, sunday, public holidays when shops are closed).
