Defogger Wire Repair
C
B A
A
NOTE: To make an effective repair, the broken section
must be no longer than 25 mm (1 in.).1. Lightly rub the area around the broken section (A) with fine steel wool, then clean it with isopropyl
alcohol.
2. Carefully mask above and below the broken portion of the defogger wire (B) with cellophane tape (C).
3. Using a small brush, apply a heavy coat of silver conductive paint (commercially available) (A)
extending about 3.1 mm (1/8 in.) on both sides of
the break. Allow 25 minutes to dry.
4. Do the function test to confirm that the wire is repaired (see page 22-312).
5. Apply a second coat of paint in the same way. Let it dry 3 hours before removing the tape.

Symptom Troubleshooting by the Immobilizer Indicator Lighting Pattern
General Check before Troubleshooting
Normal operation
Immobilizer code is not identified
Immobilizer indicator does not come on
Immobilizer indicator does not go off
22-321
Symptom Troubleshooting Information
Immobilizer system condition can be checked by the immobilizer indicator lighting pattern.
If the immobilizer code is identified, the immobilizer indicator comes on for 2 seconds, then goes off after turning the
ignition switch to ON (II).
The immobilizer indicator does not come on when the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0).
If the immobilizer code is not identified, the immobilizer indicator comes on for 2 seconds, then blinks after turning the
ignition switch to ON (II).
The immobilizer indicator blinks ten times, then goes off when the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0).
If the immobilizer indicator does not come on after turning the ignition switch to ON (II), there may be an open or short
in the F-CAN lines between the ECM/PCM and the gauge control module (tach). Watch the malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL). If the MIL stays on, go to the PGM-FI system troubleshooting (see page 11- 203).
If the immobilizer indicator does not go off after turning the ignition switch to ON (II), do the gauge control m odule
(tach) self-diagnostic function (see page 22- 241). If the indicator drive circuit is OK, verify the SYSTEM CHECK with the
HDS.
Before troubleshooting the immobilizer system, check the following general points and solve any if applicable.
 Battery is low; charge the battery fully, then troubleshoot the immob ilizer system.
 Ignition key is not a genuine Honda part; use the Acura-approved key blank, register the key, then troubleshoot the immobilizer system.
 Key ring, or keys, or a key case is used; remove the key from it, and troubleshoot the immob ilizer system with a key
only.
 Aftermarket electrical part is attached; remove it, then troubleshoot the immob ilizer system.

The GA-Net bus passes audio and navigation commands throughout the navigation and audio components.
These commands include navigation touch screen and hard button signals, audio/XM selections by voice, and XM
station and music title names. Because the entire bus is daisy chained between components (see diagram), any open
or short in the GA-Net bus harness will cause any or all of these functions to become inoperative. The addition of any
audio accessory must maintain the continuity of the GA-Net bus by installing the Y cable included with the accessory
kit.

Error Codes
The audio system displays error codes when a problem is detected with the disc changer, the disc, the XM radio, or
the anti-theft code.
This is not a complete list of audio error codes. Refer to symptom troubleshooting, or go to any official Honda service
website for more service information.
DISC ERROR The system cannot read the disc because an audio or video DVD
is inserted into the unit. The CD
may be inserted upside down.Verify that the unit functions with a standard
mass production CD.
MECH ERROR There is a problem with the mechanism A CD label may be
jammed in the mechanism.Replace the navigation unit.




BAD DISC-PLEASE CHECK

Symptom Troubleshooting
A
B
NOTE:
 Check the vehicle battery condition first.
 Check for aftermarket accessories plugged into the vehicle accessory power sockets (including cell
phone).
 Check the connectors for poor connections or loose terminals.
 Check the radio reception in an open area. Compare it to a known-good vehicle when ever possible.Poor
reception/interference can be caused by the
following:
– The radio station is far away.
– Atmospheric conditions are unfavorable.
– Tall buildings, mountains, or high-voltage power lines are nearby.
– Aftermarket metallic wi ndow tint.
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Do the seek stop test (see page 23-78).
Multipath interference or weak station.
Operation is normal. Go to step 3.
3. Check if the radio reception/interference is the same in several locations.
Go to step 4.
Multipath interference or weak station.
Operation is normal.
4. Start the engine.
5. Check the reception/interference.
Check the antenna and radio grounds. If OK,
check the charging system and the ignition
system. Go to step 6.
6. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0). 7. Remove the right side C-pillar trim (see page 20-75).
8. Check the connections from the AM/FM antenna
amplifier to the window antenna.
Repair the connections, or substitute a
known-good AM/FM antenna amplifier and retest.
If the symptom/condition goes away, replace the
original AM/FM antenna amplifier (see page 23-87).
Go to step 9.
9. With the help of an assistant inside the vehicle, have the assistant shine a flashlight (A) along each
antenna wire (B). Check from the outside of the
vehicle for any breaks or openings in the antenna
wires (the light shines through).
Repair the window antenna. Go to AM/FM
antenna repair (see page 23-87), or replace the rear
window (see page 20-47).
Go to step 10.
