S2000 will not start, vid attached
Hello,
Yesterday my car stopped working, it wouldn't jump so I called another knowledgable member. And was told to change the battery. I did so and the car still won't start, the car had been towed to a Honda but just in case they can't figure it out , I'd thought I get some help here on the forums.
While we're were still jumping the car it made noise as if it was trying to start. After a while it started to do what the Vid is showing and even with a new batt it's not starting.
Where could the problem be? Ignition? Coils? Spark plug? Alternator, or starter?
Thanks I don't have a lot of money. So I can't keep the dealership trouble shooting away at wrong items.

Do you have a fuel pressure sensor? Can you hear the fuel pump prime? Stock or modified, oem ecu or standalone?
Just watched the vid, sounds like the starter isnt turning the engine. I have a couple ideas, but Ill wait for one of the pros to chime in so I don't sound like an idiot. Im my case when it did that, I had a loose connection and the starter wasnt getting the juice it needed.

Hold down the start button for like 15 seconds and see if it starts.
It's hard to tell from the symptoms alone without being there but make sure connections are all tight before taking the starter out. You could try push-starting it (rolling it down a hill or a few of your buddies pushing) and see if that'll start it. If it starts and runs normally then you've narrowed it down to starter/ignition
