Damn, my 2004 Accord is well past 100k miles otherwise this would have been something to not worry about. I think the audio system/navi is working good though

I don't think the nav screens are included in the extended warranty. The issue with the screens probably doesn't apply to nav models.

Power Door Locks by Honda30

The power door lock is not functioning on the driver's door of my 2004 Accord 4 Dr. The other 3 doors are ok. I suspect its the solenoid. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know if there is a TSB regarding this issue?
 
Thanks

Could be the lock actuator. I replaced mine not long ago, because it was moving up and down very slowly. Was yours slowing down? Does it work at all? If not, it could also be the switch. Changing the actuator is not easy, you have to work in a tight space (inside the door) with a lot of rods, cables, and wires. You have to remove the latch mechanism, then remove the actuator from it. Good luck.
 
PS: If you want to test the actuator before assuming it's the problem, you just have to apply battery voltage (only intermittently) to the connectors, and see if it works that way.

Yes I did test it and it is the actuator. It did not slow down. It just quit working. So your saying you have to remove the latch (by removing the 3 screws) before you can remove the actuator assembly from it?

Right. There are two rods connected to the actuator. Be careful not to break the little clips that hold the rods in place. You have to swing them open, not just yank on the rod, to get them out. There are two wire connectors, and two cables (one to the inside handle and the other to the lock knob. Make sure you don't forget to put all 6---2 rods, 2 cables, and 2 wire connectors back together correctly, or you will have problems opening the door. There is only one screw holding the actuator to the latch, then you have to carefully pry them apart. The actuator cost me $25 at the dealership. Be careful peeling back the moisture barrier, because you want to be able to reuse it. I sliced through the adhesive with a knife as close to the door as I could, so most of the glue would be on the barrier, for when I put it back on. There are a lot of screws and everything has to go back together exactly like it was. Take pictures, if necessary. Good luck

Thanks for the advice. I did have the panel off to diagnose the problem. I am in no hurry so I'll buy the part and do it when I have time.
 
Did you have to move the window channel to get the actuator out?

I didn't move the window channel, but I've been told it would have made the job easier. I found out after I did the job, that the directions for removing the channel were under latch removal section in the service manual.

Honda Accord 4cyl 2006 Stereo Issue by janitor00

I was hoping someone could give me some insight on this. I was listening to my cd player after softball for an hour or two when the juice in my battery died. I ended up jumping it and when my car had life again the radio/cd player did not work. It says "ErrE" and there is no sound of any sort. I can't even get to a radio station. My driver window auto feature doesn't work now either. I check the fuse but had no luck. Does anyone have any insight?

AS far as the radio, you need to re-enter the security code to get it working. You should have received a card when you bought your car with the code numbers. If not, you will need to get the code number from a dealer.
