Go back to installer & have him inter grate the system better ? sounds like factory alarm responding not absorbing.

P1259 VTEC system malfunction

Since you replaced the head gasket, your timing marks are off, and I pretty much am totally positive on this. The timing marks on this one are tricky. When you replaced head gasket, did you replace the timing belt and tensioners?? Do a compression test on all cylinders and make sure they are all within specs. If it sounds like it's only running on three cylinders, you have a dead cylinder which could mean broken or badly worn piston rings. From what you described with the backfiring and all, seems that your timing is off a tooth or two yet do a compression test first. Disconnect the fuel pump fuse and remove all spark plugs when you due this. Let me know your progress and i hope this helps. One other thing you should do since the car sat for 5 months is take the gas tank out and get it cleaned out, bad fuel sitting so long.

Check your fuel filter and are you buying good quality gas. You may also need to take your coil pack off and have it tested. You didnt say what the weather conditions are yet you may look into the choke setup you have on this car. yes newer cars have some type of choke system.

OBD II Fault Code

• OBD II P0706

Fault Code Definition

• Transmission Range Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

The purpose of the automatic transmission is to match the engine's optimum power and torque characteristics to the driver's desired rate of acceleration and speed by auto-selecting different gear ratios or 'speeds' to power the wheels. The Transmission Range Sensor (also referred to as the PRNDL input and/or neutral safety switch) tells the transmission control module (TCM) and the powertrain control module (PCM) that the transmission is in park, reverse, neutral, drive, low, 2nd, 3rd etc. It is attached directly to the manual valve of transmission, so when the shift lever is moved say from park to drive, the Transmission Range Sensor communicates this critical information to the above mentioned vehicle computer systems. P0700 Many vehicles have a control module for the automatic transmission called a transmission control module (TCM). The engine control module (ECM) communicates with the TCM to monitor the automatic transmission for faults. If the TCM detects a fault in the automatic transmission and sets a transmission related fault code, the ECM is informed of this also and sets a P0700 in the ECM memory.

If the smoke is black then you are running too rich, this is controlled by the computer, do you have a check engine light on? check your map/maff sensor and your o2 sensors. You may have injectors that are leaking causing excess fuel to pass. Also, try a tune up and check your air filter. Get back to me OK. Make sure ALL of the cylinders are firing correctly.

where is my horn located in my honda civic lx 4 dr sedan auto. my horn quit working.

i guess so, since you really didn't ask a question ."Is it possible when I turn the key is it a crank shaft pulley issue?" Really your sentence makes no sence. sounds like there are lots of words missing.

Yes both fans need to run while the A/C is running,this is because the A/C compressor puts a good amount of added load on the motor and heat is generated when the refrigerant is compressed.There should be a A/C fan relay under the hood in the secondary fuse/relay box,it has probably gone bad,if you have a shucks/kragen or autozone in your area they will test the relay for you.

ask a real question1: where is it2; how to remove or replace.3: how does it work.4: who sells it.or ?ask a real question. the question is a statement.

This code sets because the onboard computer senses that the exhaust quality before vs. after the catalytic converter do not meet design specs. It determines this via the upstream and downstream O2 sensors in the exhaust. Possible causes are:Poor engine performance.Damaged/defective converterDamaged/defective O2 Sensor(s)Exhaust leaks

caution? what lamp, what does it say? exactly or the operator guide book state in the glove box?what Civic, there are 3 that year, Do you mean the CEL/SES check engine light.?well pull the diagostic fuse to see the codes stored.1,2,3,4? (lots of honda's ,see your here) and full docs,too.did you do the 60k mile tune up yet(every 60k?) last one?if not why not?http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=810101

yes

audi A 6 automatic

Dismantle lights...see if bulbs are burnt out or check wiring to light switch.

No there is notFirst you have to diagnose & resolve what ruinedthe exhaust converter & fix that firstYou will need the exhaust converter & oxygen sensorsunless they are under 50,000 miles & the converter is worn out & not over heatedYou need to check fuel pressure,fuel trim,all data,all ignitionevent that may have ruined the converterSo no expect to pay about $700.00 at least if you want thecar properly diagnosed & then ALL that needs to be done properly repaired/replacedThere things just don't happenIt is purely driving an older car &lack of knowledge that leads to aproblem,drive & never working on it
