Q: Acura NSX won't start
I have a 1991 Acura NSX that won't start. It had been in storage for some time so it had a bad battery. I replaced the battery but accidentally installed it backwards then the horn blew so i disconnected the battery and replace with another new battery. I also replace any blown fuses I found. But now it makes no sound what so ever when turning the ignition key.
My car has 5000 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.
