problem #1

Jun 032024

Accord EX-L 2.4L 4 cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 165,000 miles

Couldn't unlock car with my electric keyfob. Car sometimes died at redlights.

I replaced the ignition switch for $30 which took 30 mins and fixed this problem. Luckily, I didn't have problems with the key lock cylinder. I could physically insert, turn, and remove my key every time, which means the problem wasn't in my lock cylinder. Mechanic wanted $650 to replace the switch and cylinder, but I only needed the switch replaced and did it myself.
