I have a 99 accord and recently the factory installed alarm goes off whenever. The battery in the remote went dead so was using the key to unlock. I have also checked to make sure the wire to the security system in the door was connected. It is. I have taken out the horn relay for now, but would like to know if the security system can be disconnected and if so, can I do it or does it have to been done at a dealership? Thanks for any help you can give.

Replying to: blufz1 (Aug 06, 2009 9:28 pm) Has anyone else had to replace the transmission twice and if so, how much did Honda cover ? Original price is $2900 and the dealer offered to reduce it to $2200. Thanks

| I have a 2000 accord lx 4 cyl auto that I bought new. I have maintained it very well and have had no problems other than one motor mount and some serious transmission issues. There was a class action suit against honda for transmissions that I fell under and I have had three rebuilt transmissions put into my car - all done under warranty by honda . Each rebuilt transmission has clunked when shifting - to include the current transmission. I have simply learned to live with that. My concern is the loss of power. I live in northern alabama and with the original transmission my car almost never downshifted. Since the original transmission, each rebuilt transmission in my car has been the same - my car shifts at every little hill. On the interstate I cannot use cruise control as I will be going 4400 rpm at 70 mph on any hill. I prevent that by anticipating hills and running to about 80 before the hill. With the original transmission, my car ran about 2800 rpm at 70 mph. With each replacement transmission it runs about 2500 rpm at 70 mph and thus it shifts all the time. With the lower rpm I would expect better gas mileage, but I have lost about 4 mpg with the rebuilt transmissions. I have done all the maintenance and put new plugs in at 50k and 100k and they did not alter the mileage. Any suggestions? | |
