    I have a '89 Civic DX. It was heavy rain today but drove fine several
    times during the day. Later I tried to start it but there were no
    lights on the dashboard at all, no fans, no lights, nor would it start.
    Battery is new. Any idea where I should start investigating?

    Thanks,
    Ari

    Same old trouble on Main relay.

    ....not so. This sounds more like a bad connection at the battery posts.

    Yup - same here.
    Also be sure to check the cable going from the battery (-) to the
    frame.

    Make sure you still have a battery.

    Thank you for all your answers - funny too. Cables are on the battery
    posts. I tried to track the negative cable from the battery and up to a
    point it's fine, then I couldn't see. I'll let you know what the
    mechanic makes of it.
