What is your question?

Just drove it home and parked it just a couple hours after I moved it into some shade so I could go and take out my after market radio and speakers (keep in mind it's only been a couple mins since I started it) once I got done' taking everything out and putting stock radio in I try to turn it on but nothing it cranks but won't start I didn't do anything but take off the wo re that powers amp which goes from amp to positive on battery that's it!! Rest was just your regular wires that go to back of radio I don't what could cause it. HELP ME!!! I checked everything and I can't seem to find anything wrong

this is the MOST COMMON problem on the acura/honda from early 90's up in the 2000's for a crank no start condition.they all do it.acura,accord,civic,prelude,etc.it happens mostly on hot days,90 plus temp.watch the video,it's a 99 accord,but it's in about the same place on most of these cars.she calls that box the power steering box,but she meant the cruise control box.the relay has bad/cold/cracked solder joints inside on the little green circuit board.your car list 2 possible ones,but the most common one is the one with one female 7 blade plug,part number 20959.if yours has 2 smaller female plugs,then the part number is 20322.if this is your problem,it will fix it.10mm socket,ratchet,ext,and flat blade screwdriver.copy and paste the link below,watch the video.
