Hey i have a lil problem...my car wont start..its a 92 hatch..and it had indaglow gagues and i took the gagues off to put in a si cluster...b4 i did all this the car would start fine and give no problem...but now since i took the gagues off and put new ones on...the car wont start anymore...like i can get the gagues/clock blinkers etc to work..but the car wont start....
i dont get it...maybe i touched some wire while taking the gagues off...or maybe a fuse is blown..can anyone help me??

just throw it out

imported_b16turbohatch

test all the fuses and see if any are blown. and then let us know if that solved the prob!

yeah check the fuses ,

u gotta explain more then , my car doesn't start

does it crank ? any clicking ? is it choking ?

imported_spl_civic

fuses are good
fuel pump doesnt turn on

it's gotta be the alarm setup, because everything is wired through it...does it need to be reset?
gonna check for spark, then i'm gonna test the fuel main relay for voltage...then i'm gonna take a bat to the alarm

ok i found the problem...just not sure what to do about it...
the wiring from the fuel pump appears to be aftermarket, because i compared it to the wiring on my hatch...
there is a red wire coming out of the pump location that runs along the driver's side then comes out under the dash, and it isn't connected...the last 1/2 foot of it has been changed to 10awg wire and has an inline fuse...
power wire?
anybody have a diagram for this?
or know where the power wire from the fuel pump should go?
he has an alarm setup that seem to have fuel and ignition wired through it
any help is appreciated

change the fuse on 10awg wire and has an inline fuse

for the fuel pump area + is yellow/green wire
- is black wire

looks like the fuel pump wiring goes to the main relay

hope this helps

imported_spl_civic

alright
it appears to be an aftermarket fuel pump, or at least an aftermarket wiring job
i managed to bring power to the fuel pump off of the fuse box (under the dash), and now the car starts up nicely

does anyone know if this will be alright?
power to the pump should diminish when the car is turned off, since the slot in the fuse box does not have constant power

does this sound right?

blk93si

sounds right

Perfect...thanks for the help!
