its a 1992 civic hatchback dx.. stock engine 1.5L
heres what happened.. i had an alpine deck in my car, and i sold it for a kenwood mp3 player. so my car was radioless for about 4 days, and there were loose wires hanging out of that slot. all the wires were snipped, so i figured nothing would touch, but by chance the ground and the power touched for a sec. and that was it.. car ran fine and started fine for a few more days until today when i am installing the kenwood.. i knew that i blew the radio fuse, so i used my spare 15amp on that, got everything in.. turn the key to the "on" position, and my check engine light remained on!!! and i was like great.. tried to start the car... and nothing.. it was trying but it wasnt catching..it was like i was out of gas, and it was just trying and trying to start up.. but wouldnt.. so thinking the problem was electrical i went to the underhood fuse box and checked everything, and i noticed that the 7.5amp labeled "backup" was blown.. because the previous owner had stuck a 10amp in there.. so i stole the 7.5amp from the under dash fuse box labaled "interior light" i figure i can go without that for a while.. and still.. NOTHING!! the car wont start.. i am totally confused! it quite literally happened out of no where! the check engine light just came on! anyone know how to make the light flash to show the code? i am at a loss! any clues!! help me!! help me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think its has to do with the altenator....if the engine is not turning over and its attempting to it might be the alt.

if you have a charger put it on the charger for a night if it starts its not the alt thats easy. also if someone jumps you off it should start if its the alt. I have had 3 cars with alternator problems.
