Remove the battery and store it in a warm place. This will allow the battery to recover power. If you have a charger, charge the battery.

SOURCE: 98 accord wont start. lights flicker in dash and engine wont turn over

Have the battery checked.  You may have heard a fast clicking sound when the lights were flickering, if so it's coming from the starter solenoid.  If the battery is bad, have the voltage regulator and alternator checked also.  A bad voltage regulator or alternator will kill the new battery.    

Try starting with jumper cables, if that works, you can pull the battery out, take it to a auto parts store that will test it for free (most parts stores will do this).  If it's bad, you can put a new battery in and then drive straight to somewhere to have the charging system tested.

SOURCE: 92 honda civic ex starts but won't stay running - replaced relay

Is the check engine light on?

Make sure all the sensors are still plugged in and are nice and tight. Then Check spark. Make sure it is getting a nice strong spark. If spark is fine I would check fuel pressure. Make sure it is getting proper fuel pressure. Make sure that their is nothing blocking the intake pipe. Pull the intake tube off at the throttle body and shoot some starting fluid in their while the engine is cranking over.

Let me know

SOURCE: engine turns over fine , car will not start.

well the first part of your question i was all ready to tell you to put a new fuel pump in, now not so sure, there is a relay for fuel pump, can you hear pump cycle and relay click? relay under hood you will have to listen close they don't run long maybe a couple secounds, if you don't relay bad. if you do pump could be bad, do fuel pressure test pump could be weak. don't think sunroof and turn signals are related, but stranger things have happend.

SOURCE: '95 Honda Civic EX will not start after cleaning fuel injectors

I would talk to who cleaned the injectors, I don't know if it something they did or not. It could be a stuck open injector. The exhaust would have a raw fuel odor if it was. What it sounds like is a blown headgasket, which can just happen. The exhaust would have a sweet smell to it. Usually starts as a small leak (between cyl. 2 & 3), the engine burns the coolant while driving which you don't see. Then the coolant level gradually drops to a point where the car overheats, which warps the head, causing a large leak. Now you see the coolant burning (white smoke).
Good luck Honda Al

Testimonial: "Thank you so much for your help. I did find out the problem. I had a bad distributor cap and rotor. Got it fixed and now the car runs fine."

SOURCE: I have a viper alarm on my car that wont shut off

was it a professional or shade tree install? the following is off vipers website:
disarming without a remote control
This feature allows you to disarm the security system without the
Remote Control should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to
disarm the system without a remote remote control, you must have
the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet button is
located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location and the
number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the system.
To disarm the security system,
turn the ignition to the ON position.
Press the Valet button the
preset number of times (one to
five times) within 15 seconds. After five seconds the system will
disarm. If the system does not disarm, you may have waited too long;
turn the ignition off and on and try again.
if that doesn't work try this other

valet mode
You can prevent your security system from automatically arming
and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when
washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the
security system will not arm, even with the Remote Control, but
all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will
continue to work normally.
To enter or exit Valet Mode:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Press and release the Valet
button within 10 seconds.
The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet Mode,
and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.

Something killed my battery

It is possible that the positive terminal of the battery is badly sulphated ( hard black coating thet prevents good current bflow. POssible that the snow you went through up set the connection and when you clamped the battery charger on the connection was remade . Check and clean terminals with sand paper .

Hi i have a 2000 ford super duty i was plowing snow today and it started slipping in forward gears but revers worked fine then i shut it off and let it set for 4 hours and then we started it and it drove...

Not likely. Chances are that while plowing snow, you overheated the transmission, causing the forward clutches to slip. Regardless, you should prepare to replace or rebuild it, keeping in mind that if it is going to be severe duty, such as snowplowing, you will want to add a transmission cooler as well as beefing up your internals. If it slipped once, it will surely do it again, until you lose all forward gears. It will still work great in reverse, in most cases.
