i was driving to work when my car stalled..
when i try to restart the car it wouldn't start. I noticed that when i turn the key to ignition on theres no battery light, engine light etc..coming on
and also cant hear the fuel pump priming and also my power window isnt working anymore.

headlights, audio etc still works though and also the engine still turns over...
could it be something wrong with ECU?
like ECU not getting power?

i checked the fuses and they all seem fine and the battery is good
any help would useful

thanks

It will be your ignition switch, exact same thing happened to my DA9.
I got a new one for around $100 AUD at honda spare parts. You could check the wreckers for one for cheaper. If you have access to a working one it would be worth swapping it to your car to confirm this is the issue (dont wanna buy a $100 switch to find out its another issue).

Its an easy DIY fix.
Simply d/c the battery. Pull off the covers around the steering wheel. Unplug the 2 plugs and remove the screws holding the switch into the barrel. Replace with the new one and re-connect the battery.

Yeah sounds like the ignition switch, or maybe the main fuel relay? I have a spares of both if you can't find them anywhre local. Sometimes the MFR can be fixed by opening it up and resoldering the dry joints, it's really easy. I did that to mine.

Good luck!

it wont b the main fuel relay coz the main fuel relay only trips the engine light not the others

id say ignition

If the fuel pump isnt going tho, the the MFR isnt coming on. Still, it might not be getting power from the Ignition switch.

its the ignition switch happen to my da9 as well when i had it. I think about $70 brand new from honda. If the lights on the dash aren't lighting up (engine, oil, battery, ect..) then that will be your problem
