Hello and welcome to Fixya!

First of all. You will need to remove the positive battery connector. From the positive battery connector, the cable attached will lead to the starter. From the starter, you will need a 14 or 12 mm closed wrench to remove the nut from the starter where the cable is attached.

Once you removed the nut you can now use the old cable as a reference on how long will you need on the cable replacement.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!

My 1992 honda accord wont turn over like the battery connects and everything turns on but it wont start

This procedure usually works:
  • Check the battery cable connections:
Make sure the positive cable, makes a good connection at the battery and at the starter. Make sure the negative cable makes a good ground connection at the battery and (preferably) at the engine.
  • Check the battery the simple way, like this:
Turn on the headlights, then try to start the car.If the headlights do not dim or go out, then the battery is likely ok.
  • Check the starter and solenoid:
If the wiring looks ok, then look at the starter solenoid for a good connection, and proper voltage at the starter(10 volts minimum while cranking).
If the starter spins and no crank, the problem is most likely the Solenoid's bendix gear is stuck.
Have someone hit (not too hard) the starter while you try to start the car. This usually works by dislodging a stuck bendix gear.
  • Make a simple test of the alternator:
If you can, somehow get the engine running, measure the voltage at the battery. It should be at least 13.6 volts to properly charge the battery.

Starter clicks and turns slowly. Battery is great replaced starter and still have that problem. 2007 civic lx will not start. 1.8 liter automatic 65k miles maybe relay problem?

Check your + and - connections on the battery. Also check your connections to the starter. Last, a bad cable could be robbing the amps needed before it gets to the starter.

How to replace a 1992 honda accord lx starter

Detach the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Caution: If you have an anti-theft radio, make sure you have the activation code before disconnecting the battery.
Clearly label, then disconnect the wires from the terminals on the starter motor solenoid (the smaller cylinder attached to the starter). Disconnect any clips securing the wiring to the starter.
Remove the mounting bolts and detach the starter (pull it gently out of its housing).
Reverse this procedure for installation.
Hope this gets you going.

1992 honda accord wagon lx 4cyl. battery good all lights, radio work when i turn the key on but when i try to start nothing, no noise nothing, can u help?

It's probably the starter or cable to the starter. If you can get to it check it with a voltmeter while someone turns the key to engage the starter motor. If you have 12volts DC and it doesn't turn it is the starter.Good luck...
