If the engine cranks slowly or makes no noise when you try to start it. If you jump the battery and it starts but won't start again immediately afterwards. If smoke comes from the terminal connections, do not keep trying to start your car, this most-likely is because your battery cells are fusing. If the water under the caps on the battery is low, you will also have problems starting the car, they may need to be brought up to about a half-inch below the top.

What does it mean when the battery light comes on in a 1991 Honda Accord?

Not a good sign, This could mean that your charging system (alternator) isn't doing its job. If you have problems starting the car due to not enough battery power, then check your battery to see if it is holding the charge. If after a while that you had to boost or jumpstart your battery your car gradually dies then check your alternator to see if it is putting out charge to the battery.
