My Civic won't start

Okay. I finally got it to start, but after lots of unnecessary stress.

I left my 2002 Civic HX at a friend's house for a couple months while out of town. When I got back and tried to start it... nothing.

Lights=working
A/C=working
Fuel Pump=humming
Spark=NOPE

If this happens to you, I suggest this:

Check that the key symbol indicator light (Immobilizer System) is NOT blinking.

If it is, as you will read in your owner's manual, the key is probably the problem.

I had recently gotten another car and had my Civic key on the same keyring. I believe the other car key screwed up the programming in my Civic key.

Luckily, I have the spare master key along with a valet key. Went home and got the spare. VOILA!

I figured I might save the next guy or girl from some of the stress.

Hope this helps.

If not, then you might have to deal with...
-spark plugs
-ignition coils
-maybe the computer
