The check engine light on the dashboard of my 2010 Acura RDX came on recently. The SHAWD light also came on. The OBD II code was P0171 (engine running lean). The root cause was cracks in the rubber air intake tube, causing too much unfiltered air to be ingested into the engine that was running lean. Acura OEM part number for the intake tube is 17228-RWC-A00

  • @notsure6304
    @notsure6304 Месяц назад

    The internal components that are on the printed circuit board inside the ECU can handle heat way higher than the engine is capable of outputting. However the life expectancy of those parts is limited and there is also a standby voltage present in the ECU so when the car is off it's kind of still on. All this hype about putting a shield under it is nonsense. The chip that fails in which you replace can take twice the heat so explain that... I've proven this with 4 sensors in the engine compartment in which one was inside the ECU one was attached to the bottom of the ECU and one was attached to the top of the ECU and let me tell you the interior temperature of ECU was not even close to being a problem. I'll need to make a video on this just so people actually know the truth.

    For anyone watching, you can prevent this by just relocating the ECU. highly recommended as just replacing the broken one won't fix it for good, the new ECU will fail as well at some point if you don't relocate it. you can thank GM for this.

    • @notsure6304
      @notsure6304 Месяц назад

      You have to use heat just to replace the chip. Shouldn't it die then? The ECU never reaches engine bay temperature, I've already done that experiment. But seriously, it takes a lot of heat to work on these pcbas and it's hotter than engine temps.

    As an appliance repairman, theres always going to be water in there unless the unit hasnt been used in awhile. What happens is you put in detergent and then you close the lid, it fills up with water and then it makes it over flow down the straw looking piece and so the water pushes out the detergent. The only hole is the one down the tube so theyll never be dry. Unless like you did, bought the new part's or you can drill in a small hole

    My heat shield was completely loose and rattling… but it was on the top. The bottom is hard steel with no shield… does this mean it’s already fallen off? Mine didn’t have any screw holes. Looks like they tack welded it or something. Also, Harbor Freight has stainless steel zip ties. Probably even easier to use than the hose clamps.

Now, the car won’t lock or unlock from the key fob buttons but it is still programmed to the car, i know that because i had a locksmith come and text it out for me. what do y’all recommend ?

I just thought it was the upper cylinders just getting oil lubrication taking a little longer than normal to lubricate but it could be my T-belt tensioner. I only have 62K US miles @ almost 11 years old and haven't done this service yet. I bought the Continental Pro-Kit and was shocked to see it came with both the Aisin water-pump & Aisin tensioner. Will do it this spring along with spark plugs, thermostat, new accessory belt & pulley ready to go.

This time I simply cannot get my car with a charged battery to start. Any ideas? Update: Hours later I got the car to crank and start up after I cleaned the terminals with baking soda and gave it another jump start.... and when it started? My A/C, which had stopped working suddenly worked again... AND no more misfires... all codes have vanished from my obd. Does this sound like a bad ECU??

I also intend opening my old one and getting up close to see if it may be as simple as a dry joint as i found with mine it failed when in traffic and idling when the temp rises , i could drive 15 miles each way to work (motorway A roads with no fail)

    . good video, thanks for sharing. The locks are controlled by the BCM. For safety reasons, it is disconnected after more than 10 close/open operations. Also in case of accident the doors open. In case of theft the alarm is activated. In case of locking due to heat, material deformation, strong friction, the lock does not work, deactivated for safety by the BCM. WD-40 works miracles. In the case of cold ice the same thing happens.
