    Hi Gurus,

    My daughter's (my) Integra has had a problem for the last couple of
    months. It has been intermittent about cranking (not turning over) -
    no 12v to the soleniod switch but 12v good out of the ignition switch.

    It appears that there's a couple of relays in series (and a fuse) that
    must be energized before 12V is good to the soleniod. There's also the
    clutch switch (which is good). One relay is power good and the other
    is alarm inhibit.

    Anyone have any idea if there's anything else...or has had any
    experience with these?

    For educational purposes....I thought I'd post the fix.
    I could jumper battery voltage to the soleniod and crank the car (with
    key in run position). Also the ignition switch was putting out
    12v...so obviously a problem in between. After some tracing I found
    that someone had taken the ignition switch output and butt
    connectorized it to a wire that ran off to GOD knows where. Then with
    that was another wire coming back that was butt connectorized to the
    wire that normally feeds the ignition relay. I normalled everything
    back top factory and all is well.

    Don't you just love it when people hockey stuff up and then you have
    to come back and mop things up?

    Probably a hidden switch. A poor-man's immobilizer.
