I have the same car. Cant get it to start. Ive replaced fuel pump, spark plugs, new battery, new distributor, new fuses, new distributor, has spark, getting fuel. Not sure where to go from here? I have a video on my page of my problem
The car sound very different, has though it's hard to turn over. Double check distributor wires and the button for tightness. Also check main fuel relay (MFI) under steering column kick panel. It's missing 1 out of the 3. Spray carburetor cleaner in the air intake manifold, if it act like it wants to start, then it's fuel you're not get. What happened for it to stop working?
Pull out the main relay, Check for some tiny cracks in the soldering points in the back. You can either get a hot soldering iron and get those soldering material reflow on each point or buy a new main relay. Some car parts stores also call them ignition relay.
@@buggzp9887 i will go back and check the distributor wires. What button am i checking for tightness? I did buy a new main relay and still had the same issue. So long story short one day the serpentine belt snapped and caused the other belt to snap or they both snapped together and of course i replaced those. Drove fine that day and part of the next day. Wife pulled away from a red light and said she lost all power and rolled it into a parking lot. Hasnt started since.
@@heavyw8517 spray starter fuild or break cleaner in the air intake manifold, if it act like it wants to start than check fuel system. When you take off the distributor cap there's the piece that turn when you crank up the car, that piece is the button. Check the button for oil, burn, tightness and make sure it is not bent. Do you get a code? Does the Check engine light stay on?
Mine cranks but wouldnt start. No codes.. The green key light on dash was flashing ... thats the security system indicator. After disconnecting the battery for 20mins it reset and car fired right up.! Only lasted a few days, went to start car...same thing. Repeat the battery process, starts again. Tried reprogramming the key..didn't help. I'm told that I probably need the transponder ring, which is around the ignition cylinder ( where the key goes in) as it is not consistently reading the key chip and therfore stops the fuel pump from sending fuel? Befor trying this, I'm going to pop the distributor and have a look. Thanks for the suggestion.
Good video, I same car my distributor n roter got stuck n metal over heated the metal is bonded, any advice, in taking out taking to machine shop , I thought I had wrong roter but auto zone had same one that cam from honda. Good luck on your project.
I got a 1999 honda accord coupe v6 i was drivin mines yesterday an turn off while i was driving tryn figure out what it could be i put a new battery in it
My 1999 accord will crank but not start. It also will not allow me to shift out of park. Put screw driver in release and shifted into neutral. Will not start in neutral. Break lights are working.
Nice video bro, simple but very useful for every driver, I'm driving 1992 honda accord, and it's working great, like and subscribe to support your channel
She’s running just takes a few times to get it started and stay running but it died on me while driving the other day luckily it ended starting back up
My car shut off on me while I was driving & I got a code for crankshaft position sensor it has spark in the spark plugs but won’t start I have the same accord & engine I need help finding the locating to replace it
The Crank position sensor is behind the harmonic balancer pulley (the bottom pulley that drives all the other belts). remove the center nut and take it off, and remove the protective plastic cover. Near the bottom pulley for the timing belt is where you'll find the crank position sensor(left or right side of the pulley). trace the wire to the connector and unplug it. It is held in place by one 10mm bolt. Side note: rent a harmonic balancer removal tool from Auto Zone or any where you can, you will need a big ratchet wrench or breaker bar.
thats good. my car does this exact thing but is a 2007 and i have ignition coils. and i dont know what would be the problem i have no codes when i run the scanner. someone that can help me point in the right direction..?
Thank you for watching my video. Let's get to it. Which one out of the triangle you don't have, I know you have air, how about fuel? You can check the fuel line or spray starter fluid or break cleaner in the air intake manifold then try to start the car; if it run for a split second than shut off it's a fuel problem, check filter, relay, and fuel pump. If it is spark; check your ignition coils(swap cylinder 1 with any other cylinder coils), distributor, and spark plugs and coil wires. Let me know what you got after these checks. Happy hunting.
Please what can make my Honda Accord 1999 model not start once, i have to start it 3 to 4 time before it respond, i have change the complete injector, fuel pump, fuel filter and and also new battery, but the same problem still occur, i need your help on how to solve the problem some time i have to start it from engine starter before it works
Does it turn over, but hard to start? Try letting it prime: turn the key to on and leave it for a few seconds than try starting it. If I'm understanding you correctly, you have to try starting it 4 times before it starts. After changing all those parts, the only things i can think of is the fuel regulator, and the MFI RELAY; under the steering column, sometimes it's called main fuel relay. Check UA-cam for replacing it. Let me know if that helped.
There is a distributor, but the coil is external. The coil is connected to the center of the distributor cap. I have seen Hondas with coil packs, but I'm not sure what year honda switched from distributor to coil packs.
You try keeping you foot on the gas to see if it stay running, does it start every time, how long has it been giving you problem? Check distributor, throttle position sensor, vacuum leaks near throttle body.
Same here I can’t get it to start , I drove it to work and before I tried starting it it would hesitate and the same day I tried leaving and it wouldn’t start it cranks and won’t start , I check the coils and it’s not getting spark
Very well done. Thanks for the tip. Who woulda thunk ?
Step by step you figured it out.
Very cool.
Really good video,for sure you help to many people,thanks God but my 98 crank but no start,no spark the main relay it's ok and cero RPM.God bless you.
Did you get it figured out?
My cars shutting off while driving but comes back on I haven't had time to fix everything so thanks for your time.
I have the exact same problem especially in the hot summer days it happens often more which is very odd.
Yea man you never know who will see this and find a historic gold mine. I should do videos just never learned how exactly.
Easy turn on the camera, and speak... you got this.
@@buggzp9887 haha this is true.
Awesome video three years later still helping people because it’s busy to help me now
Thanks for posting this video thisbis the same thing that is happening to me with my 98 honda accord ex
You're welcome. Thanks, keep her running.
Thank you for the video I have a Honda Accord ex v6 I love car I will keep that in mind thank you.
Is the map sensor on these the same between 98 -02
How do you get oil on distributor?
You heloed me my friend good looking out im back rolling.. appreiciate ..
The thing you refer to as a button it actually called the rotor.

Didn't think there was a distributor in a V6

ThNks
Good good work 👌 bro
Thank you.
I dint know the 3.0 liter have a distributor?🤔
It does, but the coil is external.
Igniter that's all it was on my 98 acura 3.0
Great video dude
I'm having same issue and that's the only thing I haven't changed
Nice good to know
Good job
Ty for the vid bud
Thank you😅
Mine cranks start runs for 2secs then shut off
You try keeping you foot on the gas to see if it stay running, does it start every time, how long has it been giving you problem? Check distributor, throttle position sensor, vacuum leaks near throttle body.
It’s back running
Checked all … think mine was faulty map or tps
I got a 99 honda accord with a 3.0 and the problem I have is I'm not spark to the plugs
I would check the distributor, and the ignition coil. what happened for the car to stop working?
Same here I can’t get it to start , I drove it to work and before I tried starting it it would hesitate and the same day I tried leaving and it wouldn’t start it cranks and won’t start , I check the coils and it’s not getting spark
Got spark ,not getting fuel,fuel pump good.
So this fix the immo?
