    Do you know if a 92 prelude has a dedicated fuse? And if so where it would be located?

    I'm hoping that it does have a fuse and pulling it should do the trick.

    Sorry, I don't know. It's likely in the under dash fuse box, however, if it has one.

    Ok thanks, will have a look to see if there is one.

    What would be the best course of action if it does not have a dedicated fuse?

    Possibly buy a solar charger that plugs into the cigarette lighter.

    Having checked the service/repair manual I can see that in the underhood fuse/relay panel there is a fuse (15 Amp) which is marked as "Power Door Lock Control Unit", so hopefully pulling this should do the trick.

    That would be great.

    Well I pulled the underhood fuse marked as "Power Door Lock Control Unit" and tried to jump the car but no luck, as with the fuse out for some reason the car was not getting any power and would not jump start??

    Put the fuse back in, jump started the car and it started. Took it for a 10 min ride, came back and switched off engine and then pulled out the fuse. Tried to re-start the car, this time with the fuse out and the car started. So hopefully this has resolved the problem.

    Will see what happens over the next few days.
