Honda Car Forum

Hey, i have a 98 honda accord ex, 4 cyl automatic. The transmission is awful, even though its an automatic, i only have regular use of first and second gears. Occasionally i can get into third and rarely it can i put it in it's normal D4 without slipping and then catching momentarily (with a huge jolt) before slipping again. That however, isn't my immediate concern. (I know it should be) But I can still get around town locally...

Currently however the car won't even start. The battery/connections are good, I even tried jumping it but the car just won't turn over. Sometimes it would take a few attempts to start, now however it just flat out won't turn over. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! (I know the tranny issues are horrendous but as of right now i can't really afford to do anything about that.)
Thanks guys,
Pat
