Civic 2005 cranks but wont start

My civic 2005 cranks but wont start.

When i put the ignition on, only oil light shows but engine check light and battery light dont show up

I pushed the car a little by putting the gear in neutral while ignition was on and once i brought the gear back to parking, the engine and batter lights showed and car started.

But it happened 2 to 3 times only and now the car is not starting and only oil light is showing on ignition and only crank

did you get your problem fixed, If not make sure the crankshaft sensor is working Also check the wiring harness connector to the crankshaft sensor because my 05 civic had a bad connector and crankshaft sensor, note this sensor is under the lower timing belt cover or behind the main belt drive-,engine damper. After replacing the bad connector and sensor all starting problems gone starts like new everytime. My 1.7l engine now has almost 180,000 miles on it, the problem started at about 144,000 miles. Good luck
