1985 Honda Prelude - Page 7 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

The reverse polarity should have blown at least 1 fuse to prevent further electrical problems, I would start by looking there, replacing blown fuses and then trying to restart.

What is it you need? Diagnosis, change interval, proper alignment, torque specifications? So that we can give you the best advice, please include the year, model, and engine information, ( v-6, 4 cylinder, v-tech, non v-tech ) If you need help finding this information, please repost asking for assistance, I am sure that we can help.

depending on the type of security system, it is sometimes necessary to re-sync the keyfob to the car after a flat battery on the car or the fob.
this is normally just a matter of turning the key to the IGN position and pressing the button on the key fob. you may have to hold the button for a second or two but this will normally re-sync the system.

if it does not work then you will have to sent more detailed information on the security system. ie factory fitted or aftermarket system with make and type (normally found on the siren unit under the bonnet.

hope this helps

It may be the cable but its hard to say because i dont know the year, make and model of this car, newwer cars use a speed sensor and not a cable so i would start by checking the speedo cable or the speed sensor on the trany, good luck.

First, we will need to know the Year and Model of the Honda you would like to know the fuse for.

Usually, the Fuse cover has a layout of the Fuses inside the Fuse box. I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_69f3cc28d95bf514

You need to replace that switch. It happens every now and then to some Hondas. I've seen a few at work. The switch is most likely broken internally. There is no repair for the inside of these switches. Maybe try the wreckers for a used part? The door panel is fairly easy to remove.

Yes it is only for automatic trasmissions

Switch on the blower motor and bang on it, if it starts then you might need a new motor. If it dosent then make sure you have power at the motor plug in wire, if you have power then its a bad ground.

Change the fuel filter and you should be good.

Check your owners manual since many manuals include fuse diagrams. Also auto parts stores offer free assistance with repairs and are likely to have diagrams.

Before doing anything, check the brake fluid level. When the ABS indicator light comes on, an error has been detected in the antilock brake system and you need a scan to find out what is causing it.
Most parts stores provides the scanning service either free or for a nominal fee. The code would be stored so need to retrieve it to know what component is causing it. Get the scan done and let us know the exact trouble codes so we can provide you with the information for the error.

It is a 91. Waht do you have to loose.

Try tightening the filter a little bit but over tighten it.If it still leaks then replace the filter because the seal on the filter is leaking.

the question is confusing--purchase a haynes manual at a parts place for troublshootn details

For a car to run it must have ignition, fuel and air (for combustion). each of these can be checked easily:

1) If you have a rubber glove or plastic bad, take off the to the distributor (from the coil) and hold it with the glove or plastic material about 1/4 inch from a piece of clear metal on the car body or engine (a bolt works). If it sparks the ignition is ok when you have someone crank over the engine.

2) take the top of the air cleaner off to see if you can confirm gasoline is being pumped when someone cranks the engine. Or, get some starter fluid and spray it into the air cleaner when it is cranked over by someone. If it starts and dies again it is either your fuel pump or it is out of gas. If the air cleaner is dirty try the above without it (replace if dirty).

If the above does not work it needs to be checked by a mechanic.
