I have an early 05 Pilot ex-L. Starting this past summer, it happened to me close to a dozen times(more recently) that the battery would weaken to the point where the car wouldn't start, if I leave an accessory on for more than a couple of minutes. The car is only 3.5 yrs old and it wasn't in extreme weather when it happened. The battery indicator light is still green, which I thought indicated the health of the battery. Is it just time for a new battery? Or is there another problem? Doesn't that green mean anything? Should I buy a battery tester thing, that looks like an eyedropper? Should I charge it with a car battery charger overnight? Thanks. |

Replying to: mitch65 (Oct 26, 2008 5:54 am) First issue with my 07 Well my first problem with my Pilot happened over the weekend and conveniently on vacation. My battery wouldnt start, had enough juice to run the accessories but not enough to crank it. Lucky for me our hotel was about 10 minutes from a Honda dealer and got it replaced under warranty. They said that they have had some issues with certain batteries from Honda doing that, think I was about the 6th one they replaced in a couple of weeks.

When I bought the Pilot back in 2006, I noticed the brand of battery was "Delco". At that time I thought wow, that is going to come back haunt Honda. It did!
