Replying to: melanie10 (Jul 28, 2008 7:31 am) Oil change would not cause no start unless they didn't put oil in the car. Was the car running hot or not? steam, poor running ,etc Did you put water in the car or not? Is it still there? Remove radiator cap and look. If you run the car hot for a length of time you could have damaged the engine. I doubt the oil or water has anything to do with the no start. Does the engine turn crank over? Good Battery, jump start, etc |

I have a 1994 Honda Accord EX with an automatic transmission and 208k miles. It has started acting up lately. There are times when the car just won't start and the D4 light on the dash starts to flash. Below are the symptoms of my sick accord. Seems to only act up when it is hot (the engine) or extremely hot outside (air temp). Once the car cools down it starts up and runs (shifts thru all the gears) just fine. The last 2 days i have been able to drive the car to work in the morning only to come out after work and not have the car start. After waiting till the late evening hours when the outside air temps start to fall I was able to start it up and drive it home just fine. I jumped the service connector under the glove box and got what I think are 3 or 4 transmission fault codes. Below are the flashes I saw when jumping the service connector. These are all D4 flashes long flash, short short short 2-3 sec pause short 2-3 sec pause short short short short short short short 2-3 sec pause short short short short short short short short then it repeats that order indefinitely. From doing some reading on the Internet I think the 4 codes I got were 13, 1, 7 & 8 (not exactly sure on this one). The engine light was on the entire time and from what I read that means there are no engine codes stored. Based on that information do you think you know what the problem is and is it something I could repair myself? Is it a major transmission problem that I am better off just selling the car and getting a new one or can this be fixed for a reasonable amount of money. When the car starts up normally the transmission works great. It has good power and you can not feel any slipping when accelerating hard, so that makes me think this is just a sensor or solenoid problem that should be somewhat easy to fix. But maybe that's just be being optimistic. Thanks for the advice,

Replying to: phatpipe (Jul 30, 2008 12:51 pm) Do you know where to find your transmission computer? If you do, take the cover off, and see if there are dark spots on the circuit boards (capacitors leaked on them). If so your transmission computer is the problem. You could find a used computer (make sure the numbers match), or some people can actually fix the old one. A new computer would cost at least $500, so that would be a last resort. Until you can repair the computer (if that is your problem) you may want to park the car in the shade (if possible). The inside (not outside) of the car being hot will make the problem worse. After the windows have been opened for a while the problem usually gets better. Good luck guys |
