Good job!!

Yeah I’m glad u found my video

U could’ve removed the horn fuse so it’s just the lights going off and not being loud. That’s what I did

@@Heartz1400 yeah that would’ve saved me & my neighbors some grief - didn’t think of it …

These are difficult to find issues also u can try the key trick in the door handle key slot turn it to u lock twice

​@@RBTheMechanic?????

@@frazer9 huh?

Oh ok update me

Yupp

Nice job!!

@@RBTheMechanic Hello, do you think this could work for my Acura TL 2014? The alarm of my car just goes on out of nowhere. My nearest dealer wants $159 just to do a diagnostic. Thank you in advance.

@@ManuelJuarez10 yup I can give it try

Yeah don’t worry try that also turn they key twise in the door lock cylinder to unlock the position it unlocks turn it once more after it unlocks that should also do some type of disable trick

This is happening to my 06 MDX now and I can't get it to stop.

How can I get this alarm out of my car. It won't stop even when I am driving.

@@sarahaas3182 is this stock alarm? Cuz usully stock alarm will not do that when car is running

True I did same for my accord

Try also turning they key in door lock cylinder two times rotate lock then unlock and again unlock

You're very welcome!

Good job!

Oh cool glad u found my video

Yup most of the times this was the issue good luck after that u might want to try each door switch one at a time

Yup

Thank u for good information!!!

Oh true I will think of that I do have some people send me video I look watch and tell them what could be the issue

Ur still under warrnty but call them up see if they cover it possabally bad sensor or door not closing propperly

I would start with disconnecting the hood switch it’s very common issue

Good job!!

Try locking and u lock 2 times each way on door lock cylinder

We’ll try turning the key in door key lockn2 time to lock and then 2 times to unlock maybe that can turn it off

Oh ok yeah most of the time it’s the hood latch sensor so good luck!! Update me

@@RBTheMechanic thanks for the reply! I will update you. Your video really helped, was accurate, simple, and straight to the point :)

@@RBTheMechanic worked perfectly, no more 3 am alarms 🥳 I’m so happy it was so easy to fix it

There should be only one

Yeah this type of problem is difficult to track down some time it’s just a movement in the switch ..

You should not have to pay that much for an alarm such a scam

Oh ok nice good job!!

I don’t see alarm fuse the systym is built in antitheft it might not start if u disable it that way or unplugging the moduel

You're welcome!

No just went off on customer on and off he kept door open over nights so I disabled this

I would have it removed if it’s bother you. I have had cars that gave me hard time can’t seem to find the issue could be faulty door sensors

Nope it disabled from activation

Check the door switch on the side that was hit No it’s not master switch

Try turning the key twice to u lock it should turn the alarm off try that

@RB The Mechanic hey, I tried it but same issue!

Well u need to find the the issue could be need new sensor

It should had disabled it try disconnect the door switch

What was the fix?

One at a time

Check ur fuses and brake switch also check to see if ur brake lights work it’s related but the alarm could be something else

Yupp it got alarm moduel on left side I believe

Yes but it’s the start of this dosent work then u move on to trunk

Hello teacher ! greetings ! I need your help: I ​​am following all the steps you indicate in the video. I disconnected the hood sensor but it is not indicating anything on my dashboard screen.

@@victorblanco5435 did u try trunk latch and door one at a time

Yesterday I disconnected the trunk sensor and the alarm does not sound. I still have it disconnected but it rang again. You still haven't checked the door sensors. what should I do ?

I left the car unlocked and yet the alarm went off again.

Leave it disconnected

​@@RBTheMechanicThank you for you help🙏🙏

Try turning the key in door handle key slow right and left maybe it will disable it

Yeah u can disconnect one of the sensors off the door it will work ask if car door is open try that trick as well

Nope

👍

Try this trick or disable the door switch also turn the key in door lock cylinder to lock 2 times then unlock 2 times

@@RBTheMechanic disable all door switch or just the driver side?

@@Itsjayy28 just the driver

I took it it out and it still is doing the same once I put the negative cable back on

@@Itsjayy28 do u have after marker alarm or stock?I just did one Acura I couldn’t make a video it was raining at the church I helped out the guy. If u got after marker alarm it’s diffret

Scan the car for any codes also u can disconnect the door switch

@@RBTheMechanic which door switch would I need to disconnect to stop the alarm issue?

@@justinbray2773 any door it will trick the system that door is not full close so don’t aactivate alarm with doors locked

No I disabled the hood switch

Nice job!!

Turn the key in ignition also try in lock cylinder I had Acura last week with similar issue he had after marker alarm there was small switch down below steering press that multiple times with key on. Try see if u got after marker alarm

@@RBTheMechanic thanks for the advice I really appreciate it !!

I’m not sure if it’s related to blind spot system but check all door sensor also u can put the key in door lock cylinder turn it twice to disable it could help

@@RBTheMechanic thank you!

Oh well each door has sensor try disabling each one at a time even trunk so tilll u figure it out which one effected it then replace that one this problem is hard to find since there’s no codes for it

Is it bad acuator try turning the key in the cylinder 2 times lock and unlock. Or lock lock unlock. Or lock lock unlock unlock

U have to check each door sensor somthing can be bad also scan the car for codes this type issue dosent have answer or common issue

@@RBTheMechanic As for the this video disconnect hood latch does not work for this issue

Did u try the hood that is the main faulty issue on these

@@RBTheMechanic Not yet. The plastic is blocking access. How do I remove the plastic bolts?

Yes try this but it might be ur alarm not disabling since ur happnes with key in ignition

Check for leaks on each side of the car by front foot area

My 2014 does the same thing , alarm goes off with heavy fog or rain 😢 randomly , not everytime , did any of these fixes help you ?

And when I take a drive , it stops as well ... ( since I had to leave my complex not to disrupt my neighbors )

Same

Yeah I think it might be the tail gate lock latch issue

@@RBTheMechanic Thanks for your response. After spending many hours with the car. I found the culprit to the problem of my tailgate open warning light staying on when tailgate is securely closed. The latch is fine. The problem is in the rear fuse/Auxiliary box on the left side if looking at the back side of the tailgate. You will see some regular mini fuses and below it you will see two slot connections. I noticed mine was wet like water has leaked into it. Very important, when I unplug the top slot socket, the turning signal,SH-AWD,center console instrument lights, Shift lights, unlock and lock button, rear latch, dashboard warnings, all key fob functions, and possibly others will not work. So, When I vacuum out all the water and dried it out, I looked at the bottom of the socket plug and saw there have been some short-circuiting residue. There was a pin broken from the slot that was shorting out other pins and I'm thinking that's my signal to the tailgate open warning light and it was flickering due to the water. So my car alarm was coming on and off because of that whole moisture problem and the broken pin. I don't know what that broken pin connects to but when I plugged the socket back in the slot, everything worked perfectly. No intermittent alarm waking up the neighbors. Anyway, already wrote a book. Thanks again to even care to respond to my question. I hope this helps others as I saw online MDX threads that had the same problem and they didn't know what to do. Bro.... I Subscribed!

@@Loknology oh ok yeah that lot but good information

Welcome!!!

But it’s still going off

U gotta get the cylinder replaced I’m not sure if u can disable the alarm any other way. Check for fuses for anti theft pull it out and try see if ur truck has cylinder that would work also

Turn the key 2 time is the lock cylinder

@@RBTheMechanic I tried that, I tried unplugging the hood latch sensor like you showed and also jumping it with a paperclip. I also went under the dash looking for an alarm unit but couldn’t find it because mine is a 2003. Nothing I’m doing is working.

@@ryanrogers8211 the model is built in so u can do nothing with that disable it by turning the key in door and then disconnect one of the sensors for the door

@@RBTheMechanic Thanks!

@@ryanrogers8211 did that work ? I’m having same issues

What u mean all of ur windows go down? Is the switch shorted out

Ok so i disconnected the sensor fron the hood and it’s working good now. Do i have to buy the whole part for it to work normally again?

@@carlosestrada8342 well it might not be the hood latch sensor by doing this u have disable the system to think the hood is open can’t activate the sensor

That could be lot of reason each door truck hood has sensor could be fault anywhere in the system did u scan to see if u got any codes

No the mdx don’t have this issue

@@RBTheMechanic My 2019 RDX starting having this issue, the alarm would go off and the keyfob unresponsive. The dealer said that there is a failure of the anti-theft system module or BCM and they have the part on order. Until then I disconnect the battery when the car is parked and reconnect when I need to go place, annoying AF

@@ssaini5028 try disconnecting this it prolly will disable it for mean while

Hi, I have 2012 Acura MDX Oil consumption issue, it is a known issue to the point Acura issued a pseudo recall a few years back and sent letters out regarding piston rings issues re Oil Consumption. Mine burns through 1 Liter of Oil in about 2-3000 Km. Acura dealership and head office have been giving me very poor customer service as they claim I pass the Oil consumption test even though their own Mechanics did not carry out the test honestly (they lied about how much oil was showing on dipstick at each interval even though I would check previous to them checking and they didn't know I was doing this) when I confronted the Manager about it, he told me to call head office which I did, and they sent me an email approving the piston rings repair, only to have the Manager call head office after the approval and yell at them for approving it, and then tell them he wouldn't do it. After 3 months of no returned calls from dealership (Camco Acura in Ottawa CANADA) and multiple emails to head office along with recorded calls to them, I got no where even with the email from head office Acura Canada telling me the repair would be done. They just kept telling me my car passed the test. I asked for another test where I could be present when they read the dipstick, and the manager just simply never returned over 5 detailed messages I left. At the time this all began I only had 95,000 KM on the engine so it was still under warranty. It has been nothing short of a nightmare dealing with Acura, and its obvious the $3000-5000 cost of the repair is the reason they lied to me. Now I am left with an MDX that is burning Oil more and more as time passes and any Mechanic I ask (RB can pipe in on this) tells me that is not good for the future of my Engine-exhaust and WILL cause issues in the future on top of just the extra cost of having to add Oil more and more often to top it up.

It will disable it u have to try it to see if it works

It works i here the beeping noise which I didn’t here before but it hasn’t gone off… it won’t effect my battery right

@@carlossantiago431 no battery wount be effect because of disable
