Cold morning, first start of the day. No problem starting engine, but everything cuts out as the car crests the top of a hill about two miles from parked position. No power steering either. Turn the key, and it starts up - no problem. No further stalls. Same thing happens each morning at same spot. Oil pressure and battery lights come on each time, then go off.
SOURCE: engine turns over fine , car will not start.
well the first part of your question i was all ready to tell you to put a new fuel pump in, now not so sure, there is a relay for fuel pump, can you hear pump cycle and relay click? relay under hood you will have to listen close they don't run long maybe a couple secounds, if you don't relay bad. if you do pump could be bad, do fuel pressure test pump could be weak. don't think sunroof and turn signals are related, but stranger things have happend.

Sounds like a fuse for the DC-DC convertor to battery circut or the DC-DC convertor. Check the fuses under the hood but DO NOT attempt to fix the convertor yourself because there are LETHAL amouts of voltage in the hybrid drive system.
SOURCE: Oil Pressure Warning light
Sounds like possiblity of the oil pump being bad, and is setting off other sensors on your car.
SOURCE: Engine won't start. Dash lights flash rapidly when key turned.
the battery says 12 volts but may be dropping to 4 or 5 under a load...i would suggest jumpstarting the car and see what happens.the battery should read in the high 12 volts and not less than 9.5 under cranking. the dash lights go out on your car when starting,and the alarm will go off ,and disable the ignition if the voltage is too low in cranking the car because the computer will shut it down and activate the anti theft.....check your battery posts are tight. best of luck

Problem is in the electrical portion of the ignition switch.Very common issue with honda/acura. You can purchase at any Honda dealer.Is fairly simple part to replace, if you were to decide to try and replace yourself e-mail me at [email protected] and i can walk you through it. Good luck,if anymore questions feel free to contact me anytime. Thanks joel

Thanks, Matt. Makes good sense, and will check, but I had an oil change not too long ago. Saw mention of something called a "VTEC oil pressure switch" when trying to research this problem. Could that cause the car to go into "imp mode" under these circumstances?
