    Honda Civic CX trouble again
    Hi all. Had so much good advice last time, I thought I'd come back for more. Honda Civic CX 1995 model. Battery and everything electrical works but it won't start! Just clicks, doesn't even try to turn over. Is this the starter solonoid (or whatever it's called! Lol) It's now sitting in the parking lot at work and I'm stuck without it!

    Yeah it sounds like the solenoid is bad, usually when they stop working, they just click when you go to start it, ( that is if the battery is fully charged ) other times they just fry, literally.

    Thanks. Am I right in thinking that sometimes the solenoid will kick in again if I kkep trying or will I have to have it towed?

    Maybe, I've seen them pop out of it, and sometimes a little tapping will do it, but even then, some are just plain fried, you may be able to get someone to test, and if bad replace there on the spot.
