Hybrid Honda civic 2005 SolvedSolved

Honda Civic 2005  150000 miles
Suddenly many functions stopped working: the alarm is out of order, the door locks do not respond to their button, the interior light turns on at any moment, the hybrid system seems to be always discharged, leds from the gears flicker, the entrance for the scanner doens't work and even the stereo turns off. There are no burnt fuses, any idea what it may be?

Open the hood or bonnet and there you will find some other fuses. There is one called "backup" or something similar. That one usually burns out.
augie20 from United States 11 years ago
Thank you earnest. Checked that and the problem is: fuse that I introduce, it is burnt out.

You must have a short circuit in the wiring. Is there something you have recently installed on your car? That could be the cause.
augie20 from United States 11 years ago
The last installation was the scanner and it is not working since then. The short circuit could be in its plug, right earnest?
earnest from United States 11 years ago
Most probably. You should check whether it is damaged or shorted, otherwise you'll have to change the scanner connector.
augie20 from United States 11 years ago
You were right, there was a short circuit in the connector. Thanks for your help.

Stalls in high revolution ranges SolvedSolved

Honda Civic 2000  250000 miles
My car stalls out of the blue, almost every day. The curious thing about it is that since I've bought it, the check engine light has been turned on, and when it fails this light turns off, just as if the computer was reset for some minutes. When the vehicle stalls, I open the switch and check whether all the lights are on, the only case in which the car starts again. Many times it happens that I open the switch and all the lights but the check engine one are turned on, and then the engine won't start. The scanner has been connected but no code is released (only the ABS code and the Catalytic converter one). Hope someone can help me, thanks.

If the check engine light is on it means that there is some sensor which is damaged, but apparently not causing any failure in your vehicle. On the other hand, if it is off it means that the computer is not opening and thus not sending either spark nor fuel. This failure is not provided by the scanner. Now, as the computer recibes a signal from a fuse and has got a relay, you should first check this two things. After doing so, you should take out the computer and try with a different one.
erna from United States 11 years ago
Thanks, sylvester, it is just as you describe it. It seems as though the problem was the computer. It has been scanned, the computer feeding checked and apparently everything is now ok. I really don't know which was the exact solution, but it has not failed again. Thank you so much.

Radio and electrics

Honda Civic 2011 1800 SOHC i-VTEC 58000 miles
I can get the radio and CD and Aux to work sometimes but mostly not working. The CD player actually plays the disc but no sound. When I start the car it shows 'RADIO 1' with a telephone symbol. As soon as i press any button on the device it immediately changes the display to '1 AF ON' with the telephone symbol but nothing works when pressed and no sound. The Central locking sometimes stops working but opens with the key. I also looked at the dashboard layout with the ignition on for about 15 to 20 minutes and the car would not turn over. But after another 5 to 10 minutes suddenly worked fine.… Read complete

It sounds like there could be a few different issues with your Honda Civic. The radio and CD player not working, the central locking system malfunctioning, and the battery issues could all be related or separate problems.
It is possible that the battery with dead cells is causing the electrical problems in the vehicle, including the radio and CD player, and the central locking system. If the battery is weak, it may not be providing enough power to all of the electrical components, which can result in them not functioning properly.
However, it is also possible that there is a separate issue with the electrical system, such as a wiring problem, a blown fuse, or a problem with the alternator. In this case, a new battery would not solve the problem.
I would recommend having a professional mechanic inspect the vehicle to diagnose the issue and recommend the necessary repairs. They can perform a full electrical system check to determine the root cause of the problem and ensure that all of the components are functioning properly.
Peewee from Great Britain 4 years ago
Thanks Bruce. I will get it checked out before it gets worse.
Maymoe from United States 3 years ago
This is happening to me. I had starter, battery, alternator replaced and ignition control module. It still is wonky. It goes from am to FM to aux, to not working to turning on and it being very loud and it just beeps and beeps. It's crazy. I believe it's another faulty ignition control module. But the dealership won't even consider it being that. I explained to them that when they first put it in it worked great and after a day it's bad again and now my key fob with new battery does not lock/unlock my car. They key works great but that's my issue. I only have 134k miles.

Engine turns, but won't start

Honda Civic 2000 Civic dx 200000 miles
I have gone through the electrical, new starter, new distributor, new battery, as well as plugs and wires. Even while trying to jump it, nothing happens. Only thing I can think of that could be it, would be the neutral safety switch. But I thought of that too late. My car is now snowed in. Is there possibly anything else I could have missed? Any questions to help clarify diagnose the problem, I am happy to answer. I've been scratching my head on this for a while.

Might be the timing not just the belt but the whole timing
Defmunkee from United States 2 years ago
Would you care to elaborate?
I am not sure of what you mean, timing as in my spark, belt going back to the water pump, or another I am unfamiliar with. I am not meaning to be crass or anything of the sort, but "timing" is a bit unspecific to move forward on.

Start taking apart the driver door card by removing the mirror trim/ tweeter trim off, then pop the tab in the actual handle you’ll have screws under the plate and one in the window control / cubby handle further down the door card. There’s also another screw or two under the cubby after you remove the screw and pop the cubby out . Remove those and then behind to pop your door card off at the edges where it meets the door frame. After that’s popped you just have to pull it up out of the window track where it clips and your doors now torn open. This part is easy, grab your key and I’m assuming you can force it into the lock as I did mine. Spray wd40 on the lock mechanism and let sit for 5-however long makes you happy. Now enter or force the key into the lock and twist the key itself and the lock from the inside with your other hand this should free it up. If you can’t by hand grab the locking arm with a tool

Take it to the dealership for a quick check maybe an oil change and they should be able to reset and check if it was giving false codes to show check engines lights on, sometimes it's just the gas cap wasn't turned past three clicks.
Tess from United States a year ago
The gas cap doesn't click. There is no cap. All warning lights on, I've replaced battery, inflated and reset tire pressure, changed the oil and oil filter, changed the O2 sensors (because the scanner said it was running too rich) and the lights stayed off for a week and are now back!! What do I do?

Multiple Error Lights on Start up

Car starts no problem, but getting the following error lights on start up after the initial lights go dark... TPMS, ABS, VSA, Hill Assist, Power Steering. For the longest time no problems have been detected with any of these systems, until recently, I found that there was a problem a few minutes after startup that the hill assist system would kick on... regardless of the fact that I live in FL where there are no real hills. Putting the vehicle in park and/or engaging the parking break resolves the problem, and then it doesn't reoccur. Attempted replacing the fuse according to the fuse b… Read complete

So this recently started to happen to my vehicle as well. I've been searching for every possible solution, however no one seems to have a definite answer. Did you find the solution for your Honda?? 🤞🏼 I have a theory but i haven't been able to test it out due to my vehicles certain circumstance, temporarily.

Negative, the issue persists. In addition, now I'm seeing functional issues like the hill assist system starting at random.

Remote starter

Honda Civic 2016 Automatic  160000 miles
Remote starter stopped working on my Honda Civic. When I lock the car, the doors lock but the lights do not flash and the Honda answer-back feature does not respond. The anti-theft indicator on the dashboard does not blink after locking the car. The car starts normally with the push button and the key fob still locks and unlocks the doors. I already replaced the hood latch but the problem continues. I also had my key reprogrammed by Honda recently.

Electrical Problems

Honda Civic 2002 sedan, manual, 1.7 liter, 180000 miles
Took it to the body shop after getting T-boned, once I got it back many electrical components no longer worked, such as the AC does not blow hot or cold, power lock on works on the driver side doors, and only the driver window rolls down. I have checked all the fuses both under the hood and in the interior fuse box and none seem to be blown. All of these components worked before I took it to the shop.
