1991 Accord trans question by labetteboy
Mar 04, 2008 (12:02 pm)

We get a light on the dash (S) ..a green lit S with a circle it
 ( book says have trans checked )
It takes off very slowly, as if you are already in second gear , verrrrrry sluggish.
If we manually downshift to first, it takes off with plenty of power
 
any help very much appreciated

I know this problem well: Just take off the negative battery terminal for about 10 minutes and it should resolve itself; I have to do it about every 6 months

The 1900 and 1991 were famous for this. I give credit tot he guy from BAT Automotive, an online guy for helping me resolve this issue about 2 years ago after spending $450.00 to get the trans fixed. I was the one who got FIXED!!! To the tune of $450.00.
 
He told me to take off the neg terminal, wait 10 minutes and then it should resolve itself. It worked. Apparently the car is trying to take off in second gear and then go to third, first is not locked out if you do it manually. Very common problem.

You can look up your owner's manual at this web-site.
https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/logon.asp
Click on owner's manuals at the left, and enter your car's information.

could someone please tell me how to use the cruise control.
 
Most Accords have a "Cruise Main" type of button. That's the one on the left that says "Cruise". You need to turn that on first. Then you get up to speed and press the "Set" button on your steering wheel. Take your foot off the accelerator and you should be good to go.
 
It turns off when you step on the brake or turn the Cruise button off (or depress the clutch if you are lucky enough to have a manual transmission.) The other buttons on your steering wheel let you accelerate or decelerate, once the cruise control is engaged. If you press the brake to turn off the cruise but leave the Cruise button on, you can then press the Resume button on the steering wheel and the car will go back to it's former cruising speed.
