Default I have a 1990 Honda Accord that wont start?

The car started with a little trouble, but now it wont start at all and there is no power at all none of the lights come on. I checked the starter and the batt. the starter sound like it turns and the batt. is good what else could it be?

Fuses or ignition switch would be most likely. Start by checking the big fuses in the engine bay such as EGI etc. Testing for power with a multimeter would be the next best step, going from the battery out towards all of the systems to see where you are or aren't getting power.

Might clarify a little...Does the starter turn the engine over or do you just hear it grinding?? If the bendix isn't engaging, it won't be turning over the engine, just spinning the starter....Other than that, does it restart when it is cold? Good luck with the repair.

check the big 80 amp fuse under the hood this allows the power to go where it needs to and if fuse is blown you will not get no power to nothing on the car common for honds.
