Ok so 1. I have the stereo that came with car and a Bluetooth one below it. But the factory radio does not work at all. Any chance why that may be? 2. My key fob doesn't always lock my car when I use it and I have to manually lock it, any reason why that could be? 3. The guy I bought it from said the rumbling noise that it makes when the a.c is on which is like every 20 seconds or so could be the a.c compressor, Is that true and is that a bad thing? Its a honda accord lx 2004. 4 cylinder and it has about 116,000 miles in it. Thanks in advance...
generally it's not a good idea to roll 3 questions into one post here
I'm sorry
1. Probably disconnected since the aftermarket one works and didn't want to do the job right by getting the proper dash kit to fit the aftermarket one.
2. Replace the batteries in the fob.
3. Rumbling noise could be the ac clutch and or the bearing. Any grumbling noises coming from any of the spinning accessories is not a good thing.
1. Are you saying you have 2 stereos fitted in the car, but only the aftermarket one, works?
2. Try installing new good quality batteries in your key fob/s & check again.
3. Maybe. Does your AC blow ice cold? It could also be the AC clutch. Can you pinpoint the source of the noise using this technique -
honestly i dont hear it anymore, i dont know why. but when i go over bumps sometimes it sounds like there is kind of rattle. and it seems my car goes slightly to the right sometimes if i let go of the steering wheel but not extreme. could both those be the same part? maybe the bearings? also i just go the i need gas light but my throttle wasnt even on the E line, it was slightly above it... whats that about?
and yes my ac blows cold and hot air... not like ice ice cold but its cold, and the heat is decent too. and yes the radio that came with the car doesnt work at all, only the aftermarket one that i plan to use to get a backup camera installed...
I think you need to visit an honest independent mechanic for the multiple issues. Hooking up a backup camera shouldn’t be too difficult
Lemme guess. You have a Honda with the AC controls built into the stereo? They make aftermarket stereos specific for Honda that has AC controls in the new unit. Fits in the factory spot. Can support backup came etc.. if you ever wanna get back to just one stereo.
Yes my ac and radio are connected to the stereo that came with the car. But that doesn't work, the stereo that I'd and I have an aftermarket one right below it that is touch screen.
Go on amazon and type stereo 2003 accord. You’ll get aftermarket replacements for the original that also have AC controls in them. Direct fir.
i have a 2004, would the 2003 work?
2003-2007 same generation vehicle. you can search for 2004. I have an 03. Must have typed it subconsciously. LOL
