I drive a 2003 Acura TL Type S. The temperature needle rises anytime I'm stuck in traffic with AC on most especially during hot afternoons. The needle returns to its normal position when I turn off air con. Mechanic said my thermostat is bad which I replaced but the problem is still there. My fans are working perfectly and the radiator is clean. He adviced I change the car radiator to a double cell and everything would return to normal. Please advice.

Did anyone work on your a/c or disconnected your cooling fans recently?

One of the two fans, the one which runs with your a/c might have had its wires reversed. That way, it would be blowing outwards rather than suck in air to help cool the radiator-condenser complex.

This scenario could lead to what you've described.

Cheers!

Yes, there was a day the AC stopped blowing cold. I went to refill it only to find out the compressor wasn't running. The AC man called a rewire who checked my wires, worked around the fuse box but couldn't find anything. He had to connect the compressor directly to the relay switch under the hood with a wire. I later found out the reason why the compressor refused to work was as a result of a blown fuse. I replaced it with a new one but I didn't disconnect the wiring under the hood so as not to mess up my car. Could this be the reason why the temperature kept fluctuating? The fans start running immediately I turn ignition on too. The cat wasn't acting like this before not until that rewire did that stuff.

The 'rewire' has messed up the wiring of one of your fans. You may need to reverse the connection. It's an easy fix, if it is the problem. What will give it away is the finding of one of your fans blowing air outwards (confirm this first).

As for your fans working immediately you turn the keys, your thermostat may have been bypassed. Hence, doesn't control the workings of the fan anymore..but I assure you it is not the cause of the overheating. That may only affect your fuel economy.

Cheers!

Hello Honda gurus in d house.

I drive a 2001 civic. Noticed my check engine light so I scanned it. The scan result came up with p1457 (solenoid valve).

I've checked on d Internet but it's still not clear to me. Anyone know what this is and d likely cost.


Many thanks in advance everyone.

This particular issue will require troubleshooting the evap system for leakages along its lines.e.g the evap purge line,test the solenoid, canister ,canister vent valve etc
You will need to understand the routing of the evap lines to accurately determine how to do the tracing and in most cases you will need a vacuum pump and component actuation scan-tool to achieve .this is beyond a DIY job and will require a professional to handle this
contact my no at my signature if you interested in fixing this.

LX or EX trim? Thats is, 1 or 6 loader?

Is the display visible in the day or not?

Is the audio system working or not?

Both have the same problem and even worst. It happened to my 1 loader (LX), the problem is from the audio system circuit board.

Mine was worked on by soldering a certain part of the board. The 2 boards are different.

please who worked on yours and where. Mine is killing me. 2006 DC, 1 loader. The car isn't even up to a year

Olisa4all:
2006 Honda Accord V6
The 1st code from research online points to an oil pressure sensor.
Does anyone know how much it costs?
The 2nd I guess is from a sound I hear when I step on the throttle, sounds like the exhaust but I've checked that out, it's not.
Any resolutions?
