I had this same problem when the sunroof was left open during a rain storm. The dealer had to replace a control module, but I was fortunately still under warranty. In the short term I would pull the fuse for the wipers when they weren't needed, located in the box by the drivers door under the dash.

I had this happen before just last week. I unlocked the door and for some reason, the chirp was way louder and distorted than usual. I got in the car, turned the key to on, the fan went on for a few secs, but when I tried to start it, everything just went dead. I popped the hood, inspected the batery and noticed that the battery terminal was slightly dirty and loose. I cleaned it up with a battery terminal brush, tightened it back up, then everything worked just fine. Just take off the terminal clamps, clean the battery terminal, clean the inside of the clamps (with a coarse brush to get the corrosion off) and then tighten them back up. Worked for me but maybe this is different?

Good luck.

thereis a vacuum line and solenoid that controls that unit under the interior cover but it may be a fuse c...check all fuses in fuse box because manufacturers like to group circuits when they start running out of room in the fuse box....

You need to make your phone "discoverable" to your bluetooth. Go to settings menu on phone , then wireless and networks. Click on bluetooth settings and click " discoverable mode". The car will never find your phone if your phone is not discoverable. Hope it helps.

Sticking anything in there could scratch the lenses of the player. So trying to remove the coins could cause more damage. Take it to your local Honda/Acura dealer to see if they can do anything. You can also try an automotive electronic store.

Ascertain from the vehicles stereo devices especially would have a function key that allows to capture new telephone, of computer devices that are wireless compartible. Also refer the the vehilces owners manual should display the methods available to capture devices.

To Drain and Fill Transmission is will take 4 quarts (3.8qts) use ONLY HONDA APPROVED TRANSMISSION FLUID. Honda has a patten on there fluid which includes an additive that is designed for there transmission. Other brands claim that there product is compatible. Use OEM fluid only. a COMPLETELY empty transmission holds 16 QUARTS of fluid.

Sorry, i cant really provide a solution without more details..
But i would say check the transmission fluid (assuming its an auto, since you said when it shifts)
If your transmission fluid is low, add some, then "Cycle" the fluid.
Start in your cars lowest gear (L or 1?) and keep it there for like 15 seconds. Then move up to gear 2, then (3?) or "D", then "N", then "R" then "P" with 15 seconds in between. The whole time your doing this, your holding the brake, and not moving. Your going from the lowest gear you can pick, to park. if your car has the manual mode and doest have "1 / L" or "2", put it in manual mode, keep it in first gear, tap to shift to second, and if it lets you go any higher, go to third, fourth, etc. with 15 seconds in between..
Do this anyways and see if it helps haha.. Good Luck!
