Xileef:
Code is P0752

Change the solenoid as suggested by others, then do drain and refill. If you are lucky, this will fix your problem.
If it doesn't fix it, then you have two options. Either you replace the transmission or find a good technician to rebuild it for you.
And before anyone comes to tell me rebuilding Honda transmission is a waste of money, please stick to what you know.

Cryomancer:
Please go for the 09/10 model if you can.

E get why

You are not helping anyone by not giving them the reason for your suggestion. If you want to help him, then explain.

kelvinmnet:
Shift solenoid A stuck open.
Its means the transmission switch is bad.
You may be lucky to change it and resolve the issue.

If you dont mind, service the gear by changing the oil and washing/changing the filter on the tranny, then change the switch.
If symptoms persist, you will have to change the transmission.

Other gurus in the house, please share your input.

Bros this is Honda, not Toyota. Honda transmission oil filter is inbuilt and the only way to access it to "wash or clean" it is to teardown the transmission.

Catalyst doesn't increase fuel efficiency

I don't know when people will realize this.

see, I have done physical inspections for leakages. Unfortunately, scanner can't detect any aswell. However, before I installed thermostat, I run my fan through factory settings. And no overheating. I did this for almost 2 years. But the moment I installed thermostat it over heat during traffic.

My conclusion is that the radiator can't withstand the pressure, because the fan doesn't spin long enough. But na you talk say it's far better to install thermostat but fan running directly than the other way round. I just choose the lesser evil.

Are you sure the thermostat is working appropriately?
You can do a rough test in your kitchen. Put it in a pot of water and boil it. Make sure the thermostat is fully submerged in water. It should open gradually as the water approaches boiling and fully open just before the water starts to boil. If it doesn't open at all or opens just small, then it can cause your overheating.
If you can not confirm your thermostat is working, I suggest you remove it but make sure your fan is only coming on as factory. It is better to drive without a thermostat than to drive with a permanent on fan.

Bola4boy:
does that mean water can cause over heating? I installed catalyst and connected my fan to factory settings but my car overheats when in traffic or when I put ac on. Me don connect the fan back to direct but catalyst still intact. I no get 500k plus for eod engine abeg

Are you sure your fan actually turns on when it is supposed to? I strongly think it is not. If your car doesn't overheat when your fan is permanent, then your fan is not coming.
If your car 2005 and up, make sure you don't have ECT error codes.
If your car is 2003-2004, make sure your fan switch is actually working by simply checking your fan when your car is trying to overheat.
Check these things and get back to me.

Catalyst or thermostat?

Rumundele:
Good morning expert in the house, i just bought Honda DC and yesterday i remove battery head. The car is asking me for code on the dashboard, i believe Cod means code.
Any support on how i can get the code? please.

Ask the previous owner.

kelvinmnet:
I bought few months ago at oyingbo for 40k for new one
o2 sensor for 35k, also new.

40k? Are you sure you bought a catalyst or just a pussycat? All na cat

honsule:
VERY CORRECT. I had experience with a hyundai accent car. the money i spent fixing and buy parts, was like 700k, and AC of the car wasn't working. i end up selling the car

Life is a gamble. You win some, you loose some. I've seen people that bought direct tocs car and spent hundreds of thousands in the first week of use.

Toyoakoms:
Good morning everyone, please I need help with my 2006 Honda Civic. I’m a first time car owner and barely have any knowledge on cars.

So I had gotten this car in September, it was inspected, everything worked perfect with no issues. More recently I noticed the AC was not cooling anymore and was blowing hot air. So an AC guy came to inspect and said there was a leak. The leak was fixed and AC refrigerant was added and the AC ran cold again.

However I immediately noted that the AC cuts off after very few minutes and would not come on again, so he said that it’s a rewire’s job that the rewire will need to check the fuses.

We drove the car to the rewire and he started checking the fuses, next thing we noted was not he was unable to start the car again. The car cranks but just won’t start. He spent the whole day trying to get the car looked through the sparks, fuses, fuel pump and called other professionals and none of them were able to get the car to start and we had to leave the car at the mechanic shop.

I’m so bothered cause literally nothing was wrong with the car before now. It ran perfectly and never had to fix anything on it. Please can anyone help

Also worthy to note was one of the other rewires took note that the car key light was not present on the dashboard.

Please help 🙏🏾

You car has probably had a major electrical abuse. Start by scanning the car.

Bola4boy:
Should one Charge the battery even if it doesn't do flat?

You should never allow your car battery go flat. It is very bad for the battery.

Bola4boy:
where can I get this?

Konga

AliExpress

Bola4boy:
You say it as if it's that easy. How many mechanics can rebuild engines to last pass 6months in naija? Even buying tokunbo engine and Trans is 50/50. You have to be there when fixing it to be sure they used the correct oil and stuff( how many ppl have luxury of time to stay with mechanics? ) Now, I wanted to fix ect sensor 2 code, I had to buy another radiator, I can't find new one for the brand. I bought tokunbo all the way from lag and I stay in ibadan. The extra costs, stress and all just because of 5k sensor. To many quacks littered every where. The few good ones will have too many customers and will overcharge you.

Mhen, I'm not cut out for car headaches. God bless me, I will go for brand new car next. So I know I can enjoy it without issues for some years .

But I don't mind if you can buy a naija used car and turn it to back to factory settings, I'll buy it from you.

You know it's not going to be cheap. You will pay the cost of buying the car, the cost of all the parts and labour put into restoring it, and then pay for my time. For someone buying naija used to cut cost, that will be expensive. I'll advice you just buy direct foreign used or 'brand new' like you said.

Conner44:
Wow! And you leave the head plugged in overnight?

Then it must have been an old worn out battery you were managing before and it had reached the end of its service life. Lucky you

Enjoy you ride and new battery. Remember not to use it to slam gbedu or recharge phone while the engine isn't running to prolong it's life.

Buy a home car battery charger, Charge your battery fully with it once a month and enjoy your car.

GentryAkinyemi:
My honda accord 07 shows error code P0135 02 sensor heater circuit bank 1 sensor 1 as the only code.
Please can anyone recommend a solid rewire to help fix in lagos as i have changed the sensor twice but code remains.

1. Wrong sensor
2. Bad sensor
3. Short in the wire
4. Break in the wire
5. ECU wahala

Bola4boy:
you sef talk say na 2:98.

That means the probability of getting a good naija used car is like searching for needle inside the ocean. Many car owners are suffering these days. In the space of 2 weeks, I spent close to 80k on repairs and maintenance. Excluding fuel o. Omo.

Meanwhile, are you going for naija used car when wanna upgrade?

A direct toks Cross tour costs upwards of 8m, you buy one for 4m and you dont want to spend money to fix it up? You cant eat your cake and still have it bro.

Bola4boy:
But getting the grade A tokunbo cost huge money now. I pity anyone going for naija used vehicles at these period. No one will sell his car if it's not given him issues.

As I no get money and I love fixing things, I'm actually a fan of naija used cars. You just have to know what to look out for. I just look for unaccidented (or minimally accidented) car, with minimal abuse, with good body and interior. The rest can be fixed. Engine, transmission, etc, all can be fixed, especially on a honda. The worst abuse a car can get is electrical abuse. If you see signs of electrical abuse, run as fast as your legs can carry you. You see all these using Peugeot AC compressor on Toyota cars, RUN. Yes no one wants to buy a car and go changing engine, but its not the worst and people actually buy a dead engine cars and put an engine in it. It's done even abroad. So a dead engine is Hardly the end of the road for any car. Just make sure you are getting a good deal that will cover the cost of the engine. My next car will be 8th gen Honda accord coupe, and it will stil be naija used.
JUST BE SMART AND WISE.

These are very basic things every car owners should know. There are basic DIY that every car owner should be able to do.
Now if your car is Grade A tokunbo, from experience Nigerian car dealer sabi buy good cars. It will be an opportunity for the car owner to keep up with the basic DIY of a car. There will be no need to buy brand new car. Just maintain the car and know basic car maintenance.

I'm really confused on the boldened. Can You please explain how a worn out engine is a DIY job? Or even an old radiator.
Let us not forget that not everyone is cut out for DIY. The fact that you can do it and have the time for it doesn't mean others can as well.
Our mechanics (kazeems) should just get their acts together and stop being car destroyers instead of car fixers.

Bola4boy:
The best for for someone to buy brand new car or very good tokunbo. If not, there's no way one won't befriend mechanics. No wonder you see mechanics scattered all over the place.

You recommend car user to get thermostat and fan connection to factory but no brand new thermostat out there, engine sef don worn out, radiator don old, you hardly see original coolant. The one wey dey original dey very expensive.

So for your car to be very correct, be ready to spend fortunes . And how many people get the fortune for these t pain naija. God abeg o. Na brand new car I wan buy next fah.

In the honda service manual, there is a detailed explanation on how to test a thermostat. Getting a working thermostat is the least of my problems. I even have reserve just in case. I simply go to where they sell radiator parts and tell them you need a thermostat. They will definitely laugh at you, but who cares what they say. They will even give it to you for free. Go home and test it well, the throw it into your car.
Worn out engine can be serviced, rebuilt or replaced.
Old radiator can be replaced.
Coolant is the only challenge I see here, and that is because most of us are broke (me too). We cant imagine spending almost 100k on just coolant that the next mechanic will throw out on opening the radiator.
JUST BE SMART AND WISE

Conner44:
I suspect your brainbox/ECU was previously changed and not coded with the new vin of this current chassis you have.

Maybe, just use another scanner to verify as cryo said.

This is most likely the explanation.

dru23:
This is compatible with all cars 35k . Most coolant in the market now is basically colored water.....


And if you can't afford it . try using the water that drips from the a/c of your home. At least this is better than using ordinary water.... But coolant should be your number 1 choice

Demineralized water (water from your AC) is going to rust out your radiator and engine.
Normal tap water (mostly hard water) will cause deposits in your radiator and engine.
So choose your poison.

dru23:
5w20.. since u buy am naija use . It is more than likely it's been abused and no point using the recommended 5w20. Use Mobil mineral oil 20w50 and change every 3k Miles....

This depends on how badly abused it is.
I've bought a couple of naija used cars that I used with 5w-30 with no issues.
What I advice is to put 5w-30 when you get the car, and then observe the car very closely. Look for smoking exhaust and oil leakages. If you don't have this two, then you are good.
If your engine is not already dead, then it pays to return to 5w-30. If your engine is too far gone that you can't use 5w-30, then you should be talking about buying a new engine.

What engine oil is good for Honda Accord 2005, I'm seeing a lot of debates online and it's really confusing

Macmilla jceesquare

What did Honda recommend?

escohido123:
Pls I need to buy coolant for my Honda Accord 2009 and I was asked to go to Oyingbo.
Is it only in onyingbo I can get Honda parts.
Am just confused.

Good day all

I’m very much interested in getting accord eod or dc
I4 engine.

My biggest concern with this car is the lower or upper arm failure, in country like ours, one won’t want to be be stranded at certain times or places

Please how best to maintain these parts and not experience this failure as I think Honda accord is very superior to its rival

Don’t have money for the 2013 upward model 😅 for now

I've been using Honda for more than 10yrs now and have never had a ball joint pull. Coincidentally, just 3days ago, I saw a 2006 Corolla on the middle of the road with one front leg forming rebel.
Point is, maintenance is key. Don't ignore any abnormal sound for long. Change your ball joint every one-two years depending on the quality of the one you have installed and how roughly you used the car. New OEM ones are quite expensive, so I use foreign used OEM ones and replace them every year depending on how I use the car. Just pay attention and you will never be stranded.

DarkRider:
Also could a bad ect 2 sensor be the reason why my fans don't turn on at all?

Fans are good, fuses are good, relays are good. Scanned it and didn't get any cooling system related codes.

I removed the direct connection and allowed it warm up to 98°c and no signal from ecu to turn on the fans

jceesquare Conner44 Cryomancer Macmilla

No ECT 2 means no radiator fan.

jceesquare:
From experience working on 7th gen Accord (especially the ones without MAF) that downstream oxygen sensor does more than emission job and also contributes in the fuel trim.
Do you want video evidence for this as well?

Bro, I'm still waiting for more explanation on this with sitings, videos, articles, TSB, YouTube videos or anything at all that will educate me on this claim. I love learning, unlearning and relearning but only verifiable facts. The least you can do is explain to us how your experience brought you to this conclusion.

jceesquare:
I believe I answered you long ago unless you want to be cheeky as well.

Well, English is not my mother tongue, so I mess things up sometimes. Maybe I missed your answer or maybe I just didn't understand the English.
Please just answer one last time.

jceesquare:
Yes, and it's not an ECT 2 sensor.
Can we move on to something else now?

This is the only answer I could find. You only said what it is not, but never told us what it is. Why is it so difficult for you to say?

jceesquare:
When you're done masturbating let me know.
I didn't modify or change anything in the post.
I stated clearly that IT DOES NOT HAVE AN ECT 2 SENSOR attached to it. I also made reference to the fact that all 3 cars do not have an engine related code (which would be unusual for any car with a tampered ECT circuit)
I even made mistake with the year for the other 4 cylinder with the ECT 2 sensor but let it slide for this same purpose.
Weather mine has a fan switch and it's not connected is another thing entirely.
The argument from the get go has been presence of ECT 2 sensor on all 7th gen Accord which I told you and had always maintained that not all of them come with it.
This is my last response to this issue as I've seen you've gone to the mud and I'm not going to stoop that low to swim in murky waters with you.
Peace and cheers.

Bros you are the one that caused all this long talk. I was only trying to get you to be specific on your claims and even till now, you still don't want to say it. Pleas pardon corner44, we are just trying to avoid confusion here. Initially you said you do not have an ECT sensor on your 03 accord, you didn't specify that what you have is a fan switch. You supported your claim with a picture in which we couldn't see any sensor. So I was asking you to be specific so I and others here could learn. Now you agreed you have something on your radiator but it is not an ECT sensor.
So now, do you agree that you have a fan switch in your 03 accord and that what I said was right? Please just answer for the sake of people that will read this thread in the future.
Thanks.
