Electrical Issue On My Car. by Thatwebdev: 9:37pm On Jan 16, 2023
If you check my previous thread. You'll see the car.

It's an Honda accord 2003 CL9.

Here's the problem. I actually need a very good rewire in Abuja here. All these road sides are nothing to write home about.

So, I was driving one time and the Cluster light turned off, I.e speedometer, fuel guage and everything on the dash doesn't work.

Whenever this happens the AC stops cooling, the passenger side and the door behind the passenger side's power window doesn't work.

Whenever this happens and I scan I get The code u0155 loss of communication with your Instrument Panel Cluster Control Module (IPC.

I checked all the fuses and relay they're all working.

The first time it happened the rewire guy did some stuff on the fusebox area and it started working. This has happened thrice. The third time been yesterday.

So I told him that I needed a permanent fix and I need to know what's causing the issue.

But I do not trust him. I feel there's a short somewhere causing this.

Please i need help or guidelines I can ask the next rewire to follow.

I have one in Kubwa that help to resolve almost similar issue. My own only affected the instrument cluster light. He was able to trace a short circuit within the system

I'm not sure it's the fuse box. There's a short somewhere.

All the fuses and relay works.

Thank you brother. I will call am when I get to the office.

Unrelated: what does one do when driving an automatic vehicle and it turns off while on motion.

The brake and steering becomes stiff what does one do in this situation?

When it happens just immediately switch to neutral and try to clear to the side of the road before the vehicle rolls to a complete stop.

I once had this same exact issue. I changed the entire fusebox and till today it’s been all good wink

Thanks. But since you cannot brake and your steering stiffens, say you're on 100km/hr on a busy road . What do you do?

Once your engine cuts out in motion, there will be a little vacuum left in the intake manifold to power the brake booster at least for 2 more times when you step on the brake pedals before it gets completely stiff. So you’d need to check your side and rear view mirrors first before attempting to ‘time’ the way you use the brake pedal and clear off the road.

As for the steering, yes you’d lose its power but it will still function as if you’re driving a 911 tipper grin leave the key in the ignition’s ON position exactly as it was when the engine tripped off so the steering doesn’t lock up as you turn to clear off the road.
