    1992 Honda Accord EX Starting problems
    The radio and light went out while driving and the car had a small vibration, parked the car to go to work and it would not start. Had it jumped, parked overnight now it won't start again. I had it jumped and drove to have it checked - they say there is nothing wrong with the battery or alternator. After it is jumped the radio turns right back on without entering the code. I have taken it to 2 places and no one can find the problem, I hope you can help me. Thank you. :confused:

    If the Check Engine Light comes on and goes off, after two seconds, when the ignition switch is turned to ON, I would focus on testing/replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil, which are inside the distributor. AutoZone can test these components for free. While you are at it, I would also replace the rotor, distributor cap, and spark plugs (NGK only). Here's how to replace the ICM and coil:
