#1357 of 1546 whats wrong by 97honda1 Mar 15, 2009 (11:50 am)
my 97 honda accord has been inactive for 30 days. The battery is fully charged but only my horn works. I just recently replaced the battery cables. and tried to jump start it but nothing happens just the horn and brake light Replies to this message: elroy5 (Mar 15, 2009 12:23 pm) 97honda1 (Mar 23, 2009 1:16 pm)

Replying to: 97honda1 (Mar 15, 2009 11:50 am) The horn and the brake lights don't need the ignition switch to operate. Do the head lights work? Does anything come on (dash lights, etc.) when you turn the key? If not check the ignition switch (electrical part). Replies to this message: 97honda1 (Mar 23, 2009 1:16 pm)
#1359 of 1546 IDLING PROBLEM. by anv1190 Mar 23, 2009 (11:23 am)
I have a 97 honda accord se. When I start my car it revs really high and then will start to rev up and down while im still in park. It tend to do the same thing when I sit at a red light longer than a minute. Im not able to put it in park or let it idle without it doing this. I already replaced one of the idling valves, got a new battery and cleaned out the valves. Any suggestions?!? Replies to this message: rockaleta (Mar 29, 2009 6:32 am)

#1362 of 1546 Blind sighted by autoboy16 Mar 23, 2009 (3:06 pm)
Great! After months of happy motoring in my accord, I noticed that I felt kinda blind sighted when I was driving in the night... Then when I pulled up to my house, I saw my headlights are WAAAAY off in vertical aim. Any tips for getting them to aim right and possibly a how too?   Oh and also, I actually got a chance to drive my sisters millenia at night. I COULD SEE!!! SO not only do I have off centered headlights, but they are quite dim now too. Any tips on brighter non xenon (H.I.D.) headlights?   Finally as a sort of update, I solved my antenna issue. I just got it to retract all the way and unplugged it. So no more up and down. Then came the poor reception. I ended up just pulling it up some (spoiler height) and Its great reception without being too high. I am also saving to get some LED replacement taillight bulbs to replace my current bulbs. What are you guys opinions on this? I was going to use superbrightleds.com for my purchase but I have no clue where I want to go with this. Replies to this message: mrbill1957 (Mar 23, 2009 4:35 pm)

Replying to: techman41973 (Nov 08, 2008 2:08 pm) My accord wsconsuming oil at one point in time too where i was puttin in a quart per tankfull of gas. it turned out to be me needing two new oil valve cover gaskets. Since the repacement, I'm adding oil regularly. Also, my mpg went up too.   $111 for parts and $80 for installation.

Replying to: anv1190 (Mar 23, 2009 11:23 am) I had the same problem with a ford explorer. Go and check the "O2" sensors. Is your check engine light on? if so, it's probably that.
