My car doesn't start!!! Plzzzz help!

[s2_eternity_s2]

Hi guyz

I was connecting the 3 wires of the tacho (green, black, red) with 3 wires behind the cluster and now my car doesnt start anymore, why is that?

This is how I connected:

Green - cluster signal
red - cluster ignition power
black - cluster ground

I stripped cluster wires and connected together with tacho wires and taped it up correctly so why my car doesnt start anymore? is it because i have rsm installed or i stripped the ignition power? But i reconnected and it still doesnt work.

Please help guyz! i'm stuck at the moment. Need my car for work tomorrow!

Please reply my thread asap. Thanks!!!!!!!

Cluster has no reason to screw up ignition.

[s2_eternity_s2]

so how come the car doesnt start anymore? it was working fine before i start installing the tacho....

[s2_eternity_s2]

problem solved : i forgot to reconnect the ecu plug! SILLY me....

thanks mate

haha i love that moment of realisation when you find out what was wrong all along that caused you so much stress and head scratching

[jdmlvn]

check your fuse box, maybe youve connected a wire incorrectly and caused a power surge to the ignition.

maybe?

[s2_eternity_s2]

lolz. its not the fuse box its the ECU plug that i forgot to reconnect... wat a bugga!

thats wat u get wen ur too concentrate on wiring the tacho for the 1st time - good experience! (bloody hell scared the heck out of me!)

[Spoon-Accord]

its true, u sit there thinking whats wrong, then u go DUHHH stupid me, loved to see that look on your face lol

glad you found the solution

[s2_eternity_s2]

yea i was too excited and couldnt wait to start the car to test the tacho if it works so when i start the ignition it wouldnt start then i start to panic, thought i'd need to spend another couple of hundred bucks to fix it lolz but then realised the ecu plug was still out so i was like YES! THERES A CHANCE ... then started the car >>> YAYYYY!! PHEWWW! should've seen my face hey.... but its allllllllllll goood now. lolz

I haven't mount the tacho yet.. doing it 2mor... hmm where should i mount it?

[MikeyG]

mount it on ur rear seats










-.- personal preference dude, top right on ur dash is fine but if cops see it.. BAMMM DEFECT BABY!!! the light from the tacho hits ur eyes blahblahblah heres ur fine and defect

[Spoon-Accord]

for an ek right?

mount un under dash height level meaning under shoulder height,
so the oinks dont pick on you for it :)

[s2_eternity_s2]

buggarr... i just mounted on the right of front glasses trim thingy... where its visible for cops 2 see if my window is down. copz was out of my mind then. didnt noe it was illegal tho.. buggar...

[Spoon-Accord]

yeh it is, obstructs your view too when u drive,

it will get to you soon, after the cool faze dies, and it getting annoying seeing oncoming cars coming.

[tiksie]

Mount it on the right side of your gear stick.

[s2_eternity_s2]

why gear stick? how do u hold the gear stick then?

hey how u guyz get those trade rating?

[tiksie]

When you buy/sell things through OzHonda you get a trader rating if the buyer/seller is bothered to give it lol..

Not ON the gearstick, on the right side of it closer to the left side of the steering coloumn.
