1995 HONDA ACCORD

My friend has a 1995 honda accord he put his battery in and hooked up the cable backward. Im working on it for him he heard a pop and turned off the key I replaced all the fuses under the hood we got all the lights to work on the dash. But when I turn the key the engine does nothing do I need to change the ecu or the ignition moudle. If I need to change the moudle where is it located any input is very usefull thank you

Hi omustang99,

Are the dash lights showing when ignition key is turned to ON? Should not be ECM. Did you check the ground wires? This guide can help us fix it

Hi there,

Here is the Starting circuit diagram.

Therre are no starting module for the starter. If you have not tested the starter, disconnect the solenoid wire and apply battery voltage to it with a remote wire. If starter works, check the starter relay. If equipped with security system, close all doors and use key to lock and unlock to deactivate the system.
