#1564 of 1756 ignition key sticks by kkay2 Apr 06, 2009 (7:56 pm)
Hi, I recently acquired a 90 Honda Accord and the ignition key keeps sticking when I want to turn it off and remove the key. I know you have to press in and then turn, but even when I do this it still won't come out. It gets very frustrating especially when I'm running late and can't get the key out. If I'm patient and keep trying over and over, it eventually turns all the way and then can be removed. I hope I don't break it off one of these days out of anger & frustration! Would WD40 work? Thanks, K. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 07, 2009 8:04 am)

Replying to: kkay2 (Apr 06, 2009 7:56 pm) No! NEVER EVER put WD-40 in a lock.   What you want to try is a graphite lock lubricant (any hardware store).   Careful it can be messy, so hold a paper towel around the tube when you squeeze it, and don't overdue it. And work the key back and forth, then clean the key off before putting it in your pocket or purse.   If that doesn't work, you'll need a new key and cylinder probably. Have a locksmith look it over.

Replying to: dumbhere (Apr 06, 2009 6:40 am) We're looking into it right now. My fiancee has it towed back to our house today.

#1568 of 1756 Purchase ECM unit from ebay? by cybercool Apr 08, 2009 (1:28 pm)
Hi all, Before I go purchase this part, I wanted your input on this first. Should I buy a ECM unit on Ebay for $35.00? I'm about 65% sure it's the ecm that's gone bad on my 93 accord. I get the blinky D4 light and my car is jerky when driving. Please input on this   Thanks Cybercool

Replying to: cybercool (Apr 06, 2009 8:58 am) Flashing D4 along with crazy shifting from the transmission generally means trouble related to the transmission control computer - not the ECM. You need to jump the diagnosis connection - a 2 pin female connection under the passenger side of the dash - it's blue. There are links on the internet for reading the number of flashes and determining "possible" sources of the trouble (though I have been fighting mine for 6 months).

The heater/defroster fan (guessing here) quit working week ago. Checked the fuse and it's fine. Was suggested it might be the relay. Husband will fix himself if he knows where relay is and how to check it. Help!

#1572 of 1756 Re: 1991 Accord DX Sedan Overheating?? HELP! [Mr_Shiftright] by geez123 Apr 19, 2009 (12:00 pm)
Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 01, 2009 9:31 am) Mr Shiftright,   You are right. The hoses needed to be replaced. Costed me $230 bucks just for the hoses (does the cost sound right to you?) and $300 for the labor.   The mechanic is recommending me to replace the belts as well. That would be more big bucks! How much do you think it would cost for the belt parts only?   Thanks Geez 123 Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Apr 19, 2009 12:22 pm)

Replying to: geez123 (Apr 19, 2009 12:00 pm) You can examine the belts carefully before replacing them. Look for glazing (shiny on the inside loop) and of course cracks.
