#1995 honda civic no dashlights no power how to#

My advice is to always carry jumper cables, and start learning how to diagnose a battery drain.

I replaced it and never had a problem after that.ĭealers and mechanics don't want to waste time finding issues like these. In this case it was an electronic module that controlled the interior lights (dimming and timers). Once I located the circuit, I had to find out what was connected to the circuit. I had to put an ammeter on the battery while pulling fuses to find out which circuit the drain was coming from. I also had a Mazda SUV that would not start if I didn't use it for 2 weeks. Putting two and two together, I believe that was causing the battery to drain. Without telling them about the battery issue, they came back and told me that the master window switch was shorted out. After the second time where the car wouldn't start, I brought it in to Acura and asked them to fix the window issue. She had also complained to me that sometimes the rear window would not always go back up, but eventually it would. The first time Acura said they could not find a problem with the battery or anything draining it. This happened to my wife's Acura twice, about a year apart. If that is not the issue, it will be a difficult task to find out what is draining the battery. Under the hood all fuses have power but nothing inside car has power. Battery tested perfect, starter tested perfect, but still no power. Any thoughts guys?įirst, I would take it to another place that will check your battery for free. Question about 1995 Honda Civic 1 Answer 1995 Honda Civic has no electrical power to anything. I am not sure I feel comfortable they didn't find anything wrong and that this could happen at any time. Nothing was left on or open during that 3 hours from when I came back from lunch till I went home 3 hours later. They kept it overnight to check it out and I get a call this morning saying they ran all the tests and charging system is good, alternator is good, battery is good. After a few minutes it starts up with the jump box. He hooks up a jump box and it tries to start a few times but doesn't. Light on remote is blinking but does nothing? luckily I work right across the street from my Honda dealer so the service manager and a tech come over and same issue. I get out of the car and try to lock and unlock with my remote and nothing. So yesterday I got back from lunch at 3pm, and then I go to leave work to go home and jump in car press brake hit start/stop button to start car and wont turn over or nothing.but all the lights on the dash start blinking and dancing.
