    Honda crx won't start?
    I have got a 88 si 1.6 honda crx
    The car has been giving me some trouble. It will not start but its got plenty off spark and winds over fine.
    I have put a new main relay in because I can't hear the fuel pump and can't see any lights flashing on the computer and with the new relay its doing the same thing I just can't start it .

    Can any one help or give any hints?

    "From" your CRX, it's under the left side of the instrument panel.
    "For" your CRX, call for price and availability to any of your local parts stores if you don't have a Honda dealer nearby.

    You will need to find a way to verify that power is at the fuel pump. If it isn't, trace power from the relay itself. That relay is controlled by the PCM. Do you have schematics and a quality multi-meter to safely do the testing?

    Perform tests in the link below:

    Without a multimeter, you will not be able to perform the required tests. Try to borrow one from a friend or buy an inexpensive one from Harbor Freight. Afterwards, clean the main ECM ground, located on the thermostat housing; test all under hood and under dash fuses (visual testing is not sufficient); and perform the K-Test on the ECM.
