davodyguy:


Get experienced somebody, to fix your car and start enjoying it.

Good youre in Lagos.

You can tow the vehicle to Ebute Metta/ Oyingbo Same day the car would rise up,

If youre lucky, the rewire can come to the ancient city

andrew444:


Will get it fix asap,but the scanning says the sensors need to be replaced,at least I should replace the sensors first before thinking otherwise

mayor2013:


Table your points nicely and accurately so that you don't mislead people. What sensor are you talking about.as far as I can remember there are more than 50 sensors on that car. Be specific sir

andrew444:

davodyguy:


Sure.

We are advised to start with the least to the most difficult.

If that fails, revert back for free recommendations

andrew444:


Bros na wa oo,why u dey suggest engine,the engine is okay,I told you the car was scanned and the problem has been detected now you are suggesting engine is bad

andrew444:
Hello guys anybody can help

My Honda Accord 2004 model,I leave my key on the key mouth which is ignition and disconnected my battery,what my be the cause? Because the car is refusing to start right now.

andrew444:


My rewire told me it's in lock mode,he was telling me something about key sign on dashboard either blinking or not,I need to scan it right ? Thank you

andrew444:


The power of the fuel pump has been checked and fuel pump out from there,and the car was parked for about 2 months before it was parked for 2 month It sank in water,I travelled that's why it was packed for 2 months

adanny01:


I said i HOPE your engine is not destroyed, i am not suggesting it is.

First you said


Secondly


Thirdly


Now you are saying you used the car after the water incidence but left it for a while.

My next question is, did the car start after the 2 months park? Or did it refuse to start after the battery was removed.

I am not being negative here, the problem is not clear from what you are saying and the first solution didnt work. How sure are you that the second will work? Dont forget, a mechanic always point to one problem or the other even if he is not sure of the real problem meanwhile asking you to buy parts or pay for service each time. If your mechanic has the solution, why did you ask for help online.

andrew444:


You are right,I need to ask for help online and compare to what the mechanic is saying to be sure,they are just little difference between what you said and my mechanic,at least I scanned the car and it has detected the fault,let me fix the fault it detected then I will tell you how it goes,or [b]does the scanner lie about fault?[/b]i will update you when everything has been done

andrew444:


Will ask the name of the sensor,I am not use to writing on this thread that's why

Bros na igando you dey ?

adanny01:


About the bolded, the scanner may not be lying, but the actual problem may be far from the code or sensor you may assume is faulty.

For example a misfire code such as P0301 can be from several faults which you must narrow down to 1. It is the experience of the mechanic that will successfully pick the right fault.

If i may ask, what was the code or what sensor is said to be bad.

mayor2013:


Yes Igando. Akesan bustop precisely

Sorry sir i am a demeanor, Can you please explain the bolded.. I know replacing fuse cost less than NGN1000

I have been reading your posts on this thread.


For a car to start it requires

1. Fuel supply.

2. Air supply

3. A spark

4. Proper sequence.

5. Compression.

You have 1-4 working fine.

You do not have 5.

Someone suggested your engine is bad, you said olorun ma je.

These things work with principles.

My people say

You were not told what sensor stopped car from starting, reason is the blood sucker working on your vehicle wants to suck more blood. Soon after he will stop taking your calls.

Listen to the words of wisdom on this thread

The sensor is crankshaft position sensor

mayor2013:


If it's that and it's bad the car would never start.

andrew444:


The sensor is crankshaft position sensor

andrew444:


The sensor is crankshaft position sensor

adanny01:


The related codes are

P0335 - No signal
P0336 - Range performance
P0339 - intermittent

All relating to same sensor. If you knew which one is, then we know what exactly is the issue.

mayor2013:


If it's that and it's bad the car would never start.

andrew444:

Demeanor:



your car will start and run in limpmode, not exceeding 3000rpm without a crank sensor.

I worked in honda place apapa for 10years so I know this

Demeanor:


Any honda with a K24 engine will start without a crank sensor even if it is not connected.


Demeanor king

andrew444:


What is k24 engine ?

Demeanor:


You own an accord, remove crank sensor, start car tell us if it starts.

Change you CVT fluid if you haven't in a while and you'll be glad you did.

I got a 2013 honda accord some months ago. Nice car, i thought it drives ok but it has this shift hesitation sometimes's on low rpm but I thought it was normal because it was CVT and I've never driven a CVT before this car. I heard with CVTs you don't feel the gears changing but with this car I could sometimes slightly feel the gear change at low rpm, just a slight feeling.

I did little research and discovered that the slight hesitation and vibration at low rpm is not normal and happens to some people and they solved it with a CVT fluid drain and refill.

So i decided to buy 4quarts of Honda 08200-HCF2 Fluid which is the recommended CVT fluid. I watched how the change is done on YouTube and then headed to a filling station. I practically walked them through the fluid drain and refill just like I had seen on YouTube, I refused any suggestion or advice from them, I just instructed them to do as I tell them if they don't want to spoil my gear. I even refused to use their funnel to put in the new fluid as I didn't want contamination so I bought a new funnel.
They drained the fluid, removed the old washer from the drain bolt and used the new washer i bought, then filled the car with the new fluid. We put in almost 4 quarts then started the car shifted through the gears as specified in the manual. After that opened the check bolt so as to gauge fluid. When the fluid gauged and started dripping from the check bolt hole as expected of guaged, they tightened and cleaned up everywhere.
But I had to tell them every step just like I had seen in several YouTube videos, these guys go mess your car up if you no dey careful o, I was in the pit with the 2 of them most of the time.
Most people who did it on YouTube just jacked the car up but I went to a filling station so as to access the drain bolt on level ground. The reason I didn't do a DIY all by myself was Because I didn't have a pit and I didn't want tho use a jack.

After the change I drove the car and It drove like a dream, no low rpm vibrations, no hesitation, the best part is that it now drives like a real CVT as you don't feel the gears changing. The car is super smooth now.
Its just incredible how a CVT fluid change could bring a huge change in the way a car drives.
I will recommend people who have 2013-2017 accords or civics to change the fluid atleast every 20k to 30k miles, you'll be glad.

The most important part is don't leave the job to the mechies alone as they will mess up your car. Very important.
