Good morning. I drive a Honda accord 2007 v4. I am a first time car user. being Using the vehicle sparingly Just for work commute. last week while I was taking the vehicle out I noticed it was revving high with reduced acceleration and the D and d3 lights were blinking on its own. I packed and scanned the vehicle with a regular obd scanner and it brought up some codes. I restarted the vehicle and h gradually it stopped but the code had since remained. the d lights occasionally blinks.


I am based in Mushin(recently relocated to lagos) . I will appreciate any help as I am not sure how to go about fixing it and I don't have any mechanic either.

these are the codes it brought up

P0705
Raw code: 0705
ECU: 09
Status: Confirmed
OBDII: Transmission range (TR) sensor, PRNDL input - circuit malfunction
Honda: Short in Transmission Range Switch Circuit (Multiple Shift-position Input)

============2==============
P0141
Raw code: 0141
ECU: 09
Status: Confirmed
OBDII: Heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) 2, bank 1, heater control - circuit malfunction
Honda: Secondary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Secondary HO2S) (Sensor 2) Heater Circuit Malfunction

============3==============
P2185
Raw code: 2185
ECU: 09
Status: Confirmed
OBDII: Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor 2 - circuit high

I had the P0705 on my honda 2006 v6 accord, all you have to do is change this sensor and it would resolve the problem.

Parts dealer/Mechanics call it counting switch, to access/see it, you have to loose out the front driver side tire. it is mounted at the bottom of the transmission covered with a black plastic.

You might be able to get it from Luvinhubby on nairaland

My 2005 EOD rev high and Jerk while shifting from D1 to D2

My 2005 EOD rev high and Jerk while shifting from D1 to D2

Boss, I'm not a mechanic but I had the same issue with my car, I will tell you what I did for mine to stop

- First scan the car
- service the nozzles
- clean the throttle body
- check the throttle cable if it's set properly because is has a recommendef setting which most people don't know
- look for a good Honda technician to set the the throttle position sensor to the correct degree or position or change the sensor completely
- make sure all the sensors on the throttle body are in good working conditions
- lastly, service your gear if it's due and make sure you are using the correct Honda and original recommended ATF for your gear

These are the things I did and my car stopped jerking totally, I hope it helps.

Hello,
Am searching for honda civic 2008(America Spec) Ivtec solenoid gasket.

Good day, my Honda Civic 08 jerks while changing gear from 1 to 2 most recently 2 to 3, I observed on Sunday that on the dashboard the d light blinks for a while then thereafter I switch off and on the car it stops. So I went and had the car scanned

Conner44:
Congratulations on your ride. Did you buy it as a Nigerian used or tokumbo?

For your first code you’d need to change your oxygen sensors.

For the second code I can hazard a guess that your thermostat had been deleted and your cooling fans are working directly with ignition/battery power in which case you’d have to revert your electricals for the fans back to factory specifications.

Both those codes will definitely affect your fuel management negatively so repair them to enjoy your vehicle.

I have similar issue with my 04 MDX. I bought it Naija used. No thermostat, direct wiring.
Now I've been able to get thermostat but it seems my rewire can't revert the fans back to factory settings.. at least the AC fan works with the compressor but the main fan works as soon as engine is started.
It shouldn't be that difficult.. should it?

tobisunday:
Good morning house.. I always hear some sound coming from the front of my car.. The left tire side.. I was scared because of the general problem of Honda being ball joint but the mechanic said it's the linkage and low arm bushing so I changed those 2 but the sound still comes up even worse so I changed the ball joints too just on Thursday yet the issue still persist... I'm not comfortable with that sound I'm taking it back to the mechanic tomorrow please house what could be the issue?

Could be the hub..

It could be dirty, low or wrong fluid in your car. Painful part is that you may throw money around and still could not fix it.

I would rather advise you to get a toks gear box for about 100k

Make sure you use the original Honda gear oil always

Omo Thanks sir

Let me try changing the parts first because I don’t have the money to change gear yet

Scanned my car and got three codes early June. I decided to tackle them as my power reach. Bought a knock sensor and Oxygen sensor from our own luvinghubby. That man delivers mehn. The two error codes P0325 and P0135 has cleared. It is remaining the P2184 error code. How do I go about clearing that stuff brothers. I want to remove that check engine light on my instrument cluster.

Nice

Is your radiator fan always on? Or does it come on when hot and go off later?

Locate the coolant sensor on the radiator. Is the wire connected? Has it been worked on before?

Trace the wire as far back as you can and see if there is any damage to its tubing/conduit hose.

Lastly, you may need to replace the coolant sensor also, but check the above listed things first.

Alright bro

Good morning luvinhubby, I noticed a oil leakage on the floor this morning and when I checked, it was coming from the gearbox side, I took it to the mechanic and he said it's the oil seal. He said i might need to top the oil. This is why I'm scared, I asked him which oil he is going to use, he mentioned a brand name I don't really knw, I don't knw the oil used for the gear already because I bought it the car in January. I'm confused, please help.

The car is an accord 07

Replace the gear fluid completely with the genuine recommended one to be on the safe side

Thank you sir, how much is it and our many liters will I be needing

Honda accord 2006 is leaking gear oil from the drain point and this was fixed by the mechanic.

Can i buy 1 liters to top ?? Dip stick is not guage when gear is move to reverse or drive.

luvinhubby:
Check your power steering oil containers, it's often neglected by car owners & technicians. When dirty, it pushes dirt into the pump causing damage and failure.
More tips coming.

Can you recommend a reliable car scanner and the prize range

Jackofalltrade:
Start saving up to replace your gearbox or get gear rewire to check it,if it can be fixed but get a honest technician in order for you not to waste much money

Thank you for this response. Please, do you have any honest technician in Lagos that you can recommend.

DMechyy:
Contrary to as perceived, - 2014 vehicle models do not have sensors to determine when your oil is bad. Of course the oil pressure sensor can sense low oil pressure, not even necessarily a reflection of the level of your oil.


The oil life algorithm is based on mileage, for most vehicles it is set at 5,000 miles/Km. That is why it is advised you use the recommended oil for your oil changes. If you use a low grade oil, and rely on the oil life to determine when to change your oil,
you can as well do a early sendforth for your engine.

If your oil service lights comes on, and you reset it without changing the oil, your car assumes you've done an oil change and starts the mileage covered count.

When you are dutiful enough to record your mileage at oil change, and do a reset yourself, and confirm it is done, then check the next mileage the oil change light comes on, then you will understand it.

Vehicles are not yet as smart to know degraded oils. Service lights are programmed on vehicles with mileages covered

I'm pretty sure this is false.

It shouldn't be that difficult.. should it?

So far you’ve put the thermostat back into the engine then you’ve solved 90% of the problem. Your cooling fan working immediately you turn the ignition key would not affect the vehicles temperature anymore as far as the thermostat is working well.

The only thing the direct fan wiring can affect is the longevity of the fans engine. Meaning instead of the cooling fan to work for 10yrs it’s lifespan will be reduced to like 8yrs.

To me it’s not a big deal anymore if you can’t find the cooling fan switch to buy and install into the bottom of your radiator (that is the switch that controls the cooling fan working intermittently instead of directly)

Honda oil life monitoring doesn't use mileage as far as I know. Uses things like number of cold starts, engine loads, rpms, etc since the last oil change.

True true.

Some newer model vehicles also specify only synthetic fluids and include its parameters into the oil life monitor. If you use conventional oil in such a vehicle and follow its ‘synthetic’ olm you will be in for a very rude shock when the sludge starts dancing in the sump and valve head.

Abeg I just changed my honda civic engine but the car isn't working fine......scanned it brought some codes.
The kazim said it's rewire palava blah blah ......also the fuel pump fuse misbehaves....but if they touch touch some fuse it'll work.

Oga go back to the person that scanned your vehicle and tell him to give you the codes he saw. Bring it here for better advice.

Then when next your fuel pump fuse is ‘misbehaving’ take special note of the fuses(s) or other stuff that your mechanic used to ‘touch-touch’ and it will correct itself. Bring your findings here too for better advice.

This are the codes

Thurmieee:
This are the codes

When you said your vehicle isn’t working fine tell us what are the symptoms that it’s giving you as you drive (what are the problems you’re experiencing)

According to your scanned codes

The MAP is a sensor located on your engines intake manifold (the four pipe-like stuffs that are joined together with your engine). Check if its wiring from the harness is plugged in properly or change the sensor totally if it’s wiring is looking okay. When this sensor malfunctions if you start the vehicle and try to step on your throttle pedal you will bog the engine down and it will trip off.

For the ECT problem if your vehicle has no thermostat installed and it’s cooling fan wired to work continuously from when you turn your ignition switch on this will be the cause of this problem. You need to check the ECT sensor that is situated at the bottom rail of your radiator and see if it’s there. Check if its wiring from the harness is plugged in properly or change the sensor totally if it’s wiring is looking okay. If this sensor is giving issues you’d have poor fuel management.

The IAT is a sensor located on one of the plastic tubing going from your intake resonator (air box) to your injector mouth (throttle body). Check if its wiring from the harness is plugged in properly or change the sensor totally if it’s wiring is looking okay. Failure of this sensor will make your engine not idle properly and use much more fuel to stay alive.

For your other codes you should have tapped on it so it displays the specific code instead of the general ones.
