i have 93 civic ex coupe...


Hey Honda tech, I have 3 major problems with my civic currently.

I cant seem to figure out how to fix them, tried a bunch of things other than replacing, because I haven't got the time or money to replace them right now.

Problem 1:

Two days ago, my drivers side window stops working... not too sure why. As of today though, now both my windows are no longer working. I've checked the wires inside the door panel on the drivers side and cant seem to see any that have come apart. Where to go next?

Problem 2:

My speedometer in my car is jumpy and bouncing all over the place. When its cold outside, no problem, it will read the speed dead on... as soon as it gets warm, ITS JUMPING EVERYWHERE.... Tried unplugging the sensor and then plugging it back in, nope that didn't work...

Problem 3:

My left turning signal when its on it blinks fast.. I've made sure all the bulbs are correct, made sure theres a contact, none of them are burnt out, but the turning signal is blinking less bright... I don't know where to start..



Thanks

 

Please add car information to your post.

 

1) Seems odd that one side stopped working and then the other, maybe a wire grounding out somewhere. You said you checked wires in the door, but did out trace them all the way back to the fuse?

2) I had the same problem so I can only go off of what worked for me and that was checking the connection behind the speedo and the connection on the transmission.

3) Again trace your wires, you said it's not as bright so I'm curious if it is grounding out partially somewhere, or not drawing enough through the positive wire.

 

please help guys, thanks for the info man. Will keep it in mind. ITs really cold out so I cant troubleshoot right now but will do soon.

 

Ground G552 is the Power Window grounds.

Ground G553 is the back lights ground.

Ground G201 and G301 are the front light grounds as well as a bunch of other things.

Hopefully this proves helpful.

 

Def. New to Honda's but on my last project car a fast blinking bulb meant the bulb was getting ready to burn out.

As for the bouncing Speedo mine did this and I had to get a New speed sensor. Could easily be dash contacts tho. No clue on the Windows.

 

Front turn signals are dual filament, back are single. Double check that.

Both windows going out is quite a coincidence, but the age of the car does show. Unplug the motor from the harness and see if you can apply power and ground to each pin to see if its still working.

Pull the VSS sensor plug and check for corossion.

 

Side note on the vss. Locally they were over 100$ on line I got one for 56$ shipped.

 

Do you know how to use a DVOM and have the ability to read wiring diagrams?
