Re: 1991 Accord DX tranny problems

until what light goes out?

Check out the FAQ, and try doing the part where you pull the codes from teh ECU yourself. I bet you will find something there.

Re: 1991 Accord DX tranny problems

i think he means when you use the sport shift option...

when selected a light turns on in the dash to display that sport is enabled ..

problems occur when it is enabled

Re: 1991 Accord DX tranny problems

Re: 1991 Accord DX tranny problems

i had a mechanic check and pull the codes for it but the only thing that came up was the speed censor. i can tell that the censor is bad because i will be driving and the speedometer will not read it stays at 0 mph

Re: 1991 Accord DX tranny problems

yes new they do cost approx 120.00 but im sure you can pullone from the auto pick and pull yard...

invest in a service manual .. $15.00

the part is not ver big at all... small enough to fit in your pocket (if you know what i mean)
