2005 Honda Pilot - Page 4 Questions & Answers
The drive light flashes
Standard manual advice is:
The ‘‘D’’ indicator comes on for a few seconds when you turn the ignition switch to ON (II). If it flashes while driving (in any shift position), it indicates a possible problem in the transmission.
If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on along with the ‘‘D’’ indicator, there is a problem in the automatic transmission control system. Avoid rapid acceleration, and have the transmission checked by your dealer as soon as possible.
Hope this at least helps you know there might be a problem.
Need radio code with these numbers u1111 L4758
It would be unethical to give you that code without you showing proof of ownership. as a Honda owner, you can register with Honda on line, and getting your radio code is 1 of their services.
Why 2005 pilot gets too much cabin heat even when turned off
There is blend door in vent channels under the dash of the vehicle. It blends warm and cool air in the vents depending on the temperature setting. The Blend Door is controlled by a motor called an actuator that gets its signals from the setting on the dash. When the actuator fails the blend door can't move. If it stops on hot you always get hot air.
3 possibilitys
1. Blend Door stuck.
2. Temperature control not sending signal to actuator.
3. Actuator motor gone bad.
Of the 3 possibilities the actuator motor is the most common and the easiest to fix. The part is $40-90. I don't know exactly where actuator is on the Pilot. My GMC you remove the plastic trim below the dash and its just to the left of the glove box near the 'hump'. Perhaps the part store can tell you or someone else will offer the exact location.
Once you remove the actuator you can plug it back in to the wire clip and move the temperature knob and see if it moves. When you get the new one plug it in and make sure it turns before bolting it in.
To clarify a bit. The heater is never technically turned off. The blend door determines how much it goes thru the vents.
Knock sensor circuit malfunctioning
Check for a broken wire , the dealer will say its has been eaten by a rodent. Not easy to get to so take to a shop and get repaired or replaced.
Rear back seat window made a popping sound I need to get the window up to drive
Hi Pennie: Hopefully you can get the window to retract by having an assisstant pull up on the window as you operate the window switch. In these Honda models, the likely cause of this window glass failing to roll back up is a broken plastic/nylon guide bushing which holds the glass parallel to the two channels which the glass travels up and down in. Second most likely cause, an inoperable regulator.Hope this helps, take care.
Speedometer
