#578 of 812 Erratic Security System...1991 Acura Legend LS by nupe1

Aug 03, 2005 (9:50 pm)

Owned the car since is was new...always kept maintenance up. Lately, alarm goes off periodically for no apparent reason. Doesn't do it enough to pinpoint actually what triggers it...pretty sure it's not external factors. Any ideas? I want to disarm it until I can get the entire system checked out...can anyone tell me (how to disarm) and whether disarming it is fairly simple...i.e. disconnecting a wire or two or something I'm going to need a professional to do...thanks

Does anyone know where the headlights-on chime/alarm is located? I suspect that it was disabled and want to enable it. Thanks in advance.

Did you solve this issue? I am having the exact same problem.

#582 of 812 Dashboard and Running lights by minksnopes

Sep 14, 2005 (9:40 pm)

I have a 86 Legend. The other day I twisted the switch to turn on the headlights. In the first position the dashboard light and running lights come one, but if I turn it to the next position the headlights come one but the dashboard lights and running lights go off. Brake lights not affected. I am not much of a diagnostician or mechanic so I am hoping someone can tell me what the problem is and if it is something a guy with a tool box the size of a lunch pail can fix. Appreciate any and all input. Thank You very much.

#586 of 812 Electronic Control Unit question by suchi

Sep 22, 2005 (12:52 pm)

Hi,
 
The airconditioning on my 91 Legend sometimes works fine and at times it doesn't blow cold (the radio display does this on/off thing too). I took it to the dealer, who found no leaks but topped off the refrigerant in the compressor, then thought the electrical relays might be at fault and now says that there is a problem with Electronic Control Unit's grounding.
 
I haven't been able to get a clear answer from him about whether replacing the ECU is a safety concern or not. For example, does it control the transmission or the ABS or if all it does is control the compressor and maybe the radio display. It would be helpful if someone could shed light on what the ECU does and does not control or if there are several ECUs each with a different set of purposes.
 
Thanks in advance!

#587 of 812 Clutch Sinks to Floor and Does not Return by pucho

Oct 03, 2005 (7:18 pm)

Clutch pedal sinks to floor and has no pressure to return to its normal postion. Has anyone had a similar problem? What should be done?
 
My 1992 Acura Legend Coupe v6 engine with 5-speed manual transmission
 
Any clues appreciated. TIA.
 
PS. The mechanic wants to change clutch slate and master. He said "hydralic part has slow internal leak and needs to be changed." It is normal wear and tear of the part. Clutch and transmission have been already been changed 4 months ago.
