99 Civic EX won't start. Just replaced heater hoses. Here's the deal. I just replaced 7 heater hoses and now my car won't start. When I put the keys in the ignition and try to start, all I hear is the sound you get when the engine just won't turn over. There's a battery light that stays on but all the other electrical functions work (I think, at least the inside lights and the head/tail lights). The battery is I think about 2 years old. But before I replaced the hoses, the battery seemed to work fine. Also, I did clean my engine, but I the distributor and other important parts. Help! Thanks! |
Re: 99 Civic EX won't start. Just replaced heater hoses. Does it click? Trying boosting the car. Check the connections on the battery. |
Re: 99 Civic EX won't start. Just replaced heater hoses. sounds like you knocked a grounding wire loose when changing those hoses. Check thermostat housing to chassis specifically. I am not sure all years have one there but yours might. Check a manual for all the grounds. |
Re: 99 Civic EX won't start. Just replaced heater hoses. Check grounds, check battery..try to jump start it..How long did you have the hood open for? you have a light on under your hood that stayed on the whole time? When you say you cleaned it, did you get anything wet your not supposed to? |
Re: 99 Civic EX won't start. Just replaced heater hoses. Retrace your steps the best you can. I have cut open moved, replaced hoses a bunch and its more than likely you just knocked a grounding or line around. As other guys said start looking around. Might take some time and effort, even moving hosing out again to locate, but cheaper than a mechanic doing it for ya. |
