my 2014 pilot touring, 198,000 km, sat for 4 days and when i tried to start it, the car was totally dead, no nothing.
when i boosted it, the horn honked and honked, so i quickly jump in car and the car started with no problem, but horn kept honking. tried panic button, tired boosting with doors locked, but as soon as i put cables on the battery the horn keeps honking. never happened to me before. but i just had timing belt changed and had radio restarted a week before. Oh yeah, when i take the boosting cables off, battery seems totally dead again, no dash lights, buzzers, dingers, nothing.
Any takers?
Thanks in advance
Neil
found problem i think my back dome light was on
Thank you
Phew! Thanks for reporting back!
Assuming you’re still on the original battery, it’s time for a new one.
Depending on if the immobiliser settings are messed up, you may need to find a guy like Scotty with a fancy scan tool or the dealer to reset/reprogram your immobiliser/alarm.
But load test your battery & alternator first.
Ok figured out to stop alarm. after i put booster on, horn started to honk, so i quickly put key in door lock and the car stopped honking. so the boosted my car and ran it for an hour. my battery tester said charge/good battery. i started it again two days later no problem. just tryed starting it again 24 hrs later not dash lights door locks nothing. thinking bad battery or a current draw. i never had a problem before, but since i changed the timing belt and water pump last week,this problem starts up, would that have anything to do with it????
DOH!
