2007 Honda Accord EX won’t start. It doesn’t crank or make any sounds when I turn the key. The dashboard light came one time when attempting to start to car but will not do this again. Doors won’t lock with the button on the door. Jumping it did nothing. Took the battery to Costco who tested it and said it should be good. After cleaning the terminals and reattaching the battery the parking lights turned on and a buzzing sound started. What might the problem be?
Hard to say, my gut says battery but it tested okay. Did they give you a printout or anything? The other thing could be the alternator, I think AutoZone can test both. Maybe it's worth having autozone charge the battery, because if it had enough juice it should start. You could also try checking the contacts, maybe something is shorting somewhere?
The problem is it's (nearly) a 20 year old car nigga
>>29095261How did they test the battery? With a multimeter or an actual battery tester? Because this all sounds like the battery, it may read 12v on a multimeter but if one of the cells is dead it won't have the amps to crank the engine over.Try to turn the headlights on to see if the battery actually works. Also check all the fuses.
>>29095261assuming your battery actually is good and is fully charged, you've probably got a bad ground somewhere in your car. i'm just guessing that it might be on the body control module. unless you're good with electrical troubleshooting and have access to a wiring diagram, take it to a shop.
>>29095261>no main power>battery tests goodI'd be looking for a burnt fuse link, or blown Maxi fuse, whichever way Honda set up the electrical system.
>>29095261I am suspicious of your ignition switch becoming faulty and needing replaced, 2003-2007 Accords like to get it but that is purely an assumption.Keep your beat ass 2007 Accord EX whatever it needs because these newer cars are needing like $5,000 worth of repairs and they're not even that old.
>>29095261needs a new computer and suspension
>>29095621Based, a 7th gen Accord will decimate all, after you total the car 3 times in repairs, if we have to... order some shit from vatozone.
>>29095261Easy to say, you and the previous installer has no idea how to install a battery
>>29095629That's why I'm thinking they maybe grounded the damn thing out by hooking a battery up backwards, I did this myself on the 2004 Accord because stupid, and it did make a buzzing noise and the headlights came on, and then they went off, and it was dead until I put a new 100A big boi fuse in, the the first thing he needs to do is pop that tool free engine bay fuse box open and see if the largest one is popped.
>>29095619>>29095632electronic door locks also don't work. crank request and all interior/exterior lighting are routed through the body control module. >>29095331
>>29095261>Took the battery to Costco who tested it and said it should be goodKeep it simple.Place a new battery in the car.Jesus, that's just basic.PROVIDE MORE DETAILS:1. Length of ownership2. Any previous issues3. Engine and transmission (I'll assume the K24A8 and Auto for now)***Yes, some of these clowns refer to the EX-L as EX, so you never know
>>29095261>>29096032And another thing OP:Place "OP HERE" in each of your replies>nah let's just confuse the shit out of each other,not establish any specific details, and have to filter through 50 dumbass Guesses, such as: "it's your Ignition Switch" by this moron >>29095619
Step 1: go to the project farm yt channel Step 2: look up video on battery testersStep 3: buy whatever 30 buck chinese crap is best value for money in the videoStep 4: follow the instructions and test the battery>but the clueless min wage mouthbreather at Costco said-Test the battery. Even if it's not the battery, you're now able to diagnose batteries yourself rather than relying on some random idiot.
Pop a new battery in, if that doesn't work and you don't know how to troubleshoot yet, call a mechanic and/or tow it to a shop
>>29096038>Place "OP HERE" in each of your repliesThis is one of the few times where name/tripfagging is appropriate.
>>29096270>This is one of the few times where name/tripfagging is appropriate.Agreed.Of course it would just be easier if the Mods just activated UserIDs on these boards too.
>>29095308>>29095471>>29095632It was the main fuse. Thanks, guys
>>29097054That's based Anon, 7th gen Accord I knew there couldn't be anything major wrong
>>29097054niceKeep in mind something probably caused that. They don’t usually fail on their own. Maybe keep a spare fuse or two in the glove box and if it happens again, switch it out and sell the car. Would cost more to diagnose than the car is worth
>>29097060It could've died due to sheer age, It's common on 2003-2007 Accords for the A/C compressor to not click on because the underhood compressor relay just dies for no reason (best case scenario because A/C work sucks), It wouldn't surprise me for a fuse that you're running a shit ton of power day after day over and over with cranking, and various loads, Honda Accords just work so hard for us that we take it for granted that it works and needs nothing, and get pissed when it does.
>>29097060This.Blowing a main fuse means theres bad mojo going on.
