Car Wont Fire Up
man, i wanna cry....
i have a '89 crx with a '95 sohc vtec civic Si swap....
the car was running fine until one day i was retarded and decided to try and clean up the messy rig there was on the main relay. Well, not only did I NOT remember what wires went were, I decided to play pin the tail on the relay and guess my way through it. yes, im a noob. well, the chilton is a piece of shit and every source ive looked at has showed me something different. i believe i have the wiring right right now, but maybe someone can tell me what color wires go on to which port? (1-
i did blow some fuses but ive done replaced them already and they are still good. ( ecu,alternator, etc. fuses)
maybe it could be the fuel pump? the car clicks, cranks, but doesnt START! can anyone tell me some symptoms to look for on my path to running car-dome? any help is a big help to me....i wanna torch the car at the moment. please help!

yel/grn goes to the fuel pump
grn/yel goes to the flr pin on the ecu
blu/wht goes to a 7.5a fuse under dash
wht/blk goes to fuses under hood
yel/blk goes to a connector in the engine comparment that runs through car
yel/grn goes to a 15a fuse under the dash
blk goes to a ground pin on the ecu.
the haynes manuals have really good wiring diagrams. that would be your best bet to get one of those for the year motor tha you have and trace it out.
for 93civicsisohc if you haven't done anything the the electrical check the ignitor in the distributor. I had a 92 si had to replace it as did many of people that I know.

and also; should hte ecu LED light be on when the key is on? maybe somethings wrong with that....the fuse is good....when the key is on and the fan and shit is on, shouldnt the ECU be powered on and have the blinking red light and run the fuel pump?

find the service connector under the passenger side kick panel near the glove box. run a jumper wire on the plug then turn the car to the on position. count the flashes on the CEL. long flashes=10 and short=1. add those up and it will give you your engine trouble codes. if there is more than one after the short flashes it will pause and flash another code.

turn the car on "on" and break the 17mm fuel rail bolt, if you have fuel move onto the next step. Put a screw driver in a plug wire and see if you have spark. If you have those two things then 5 out of 10 times the car will start . obd0 is like a lawn mower engine, theirs really only a few things that can go wrong
