Could be that the Multi-Function Stalk Switch on the column has a connector that has come loose or unplugged, or the switch could have just burned out as they sometimes do. It could also be a worn ignition switch if there is no power at all to the fuses, but start by tracing all the electrical connections and wires from the alternator to the main power supply under the hood, and also check for breakers, relays or fusible links in the same place, that could have burned out.

All the fuses I can see are good. It's a manual 5 speed. Noticed when I took the key out the alarm was still going as if the key was still in it. Any ideas? 3 Answers

I have a 1980 Honda Accord start and runs great with or with out AC, wipers and Stereo on. But when the headlights are turned on the engine starts to die, if headlights are turned off before engine dies the engine takes off and runs great. The other thing is the dish lights come on when the breaks are applied, this will also cause engine to start to die. Please help where should I look to correct this? 2 Answers
