2002 HONDA ODYSSEY Electrical System Problems

The van completely shuts down no matter where I am. When I try to turn it back on the green key light DOES NOT appear on the dash. The van will still crank but will not turn over. Until the green key light appears on the left side of the dash. I have to sit anywhere from 5 minutes up until 8 hours one day. It does this 3 to 4 times a day. The only warning I get is the green key will start flashing on the dash that's when I know it has shut down. I feel like it has something to do with the immobilizer. Because of the green key. I have changed my key fob battery , regular battery, checked all the fuses. This is very dangerous, it has left my family and myself in some deadly positions. Dar and raining it has shut off on...

MY VEHICLE TELLS ME THE PASSENGER AIRBAG ISNT WORKING THEN IT TURNS OFF SO SOMETHING ELECTRONICLY IS MESSED UP.

A COUPLE WEEKS AGO AS ME AND MY 2 TODDLER SONS WERE GOING DOWN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE HAD WHAT SEEMED A POWER SURGE AND TAILLIGHTS WENT OUT AND POWER WENT LOW RADIO STOPPED AND DOORS UNLOCKED. LUCKILY WE WERE CLOSE TO HOME I GOT NEW FUSE FOR LIGHTS RADIO SAID ERROR BUT MUSIC DIDN'T MATTER THE NEXT DAY I HAD TO JUMP IT TO GOT WORK BUT SEEMED OK. THE NEXT FEW WEEKS I DEALT WITH DOORS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING. AND ONE MORNING CAME OUT BOTH DOORS WERE OPEN.I DIDN'T LET BOYS RIDE AFTER PROBLEMS ESCALATED ONE DAY DOORS STOPPED AND GOT STUCK IN MIDDLE WHEN THEY WERE GETTING OUT. IT I REPLACED SOME FUSES AND EVERYTHING SEEMED OK BUT MOST DAYS BATTERY FELT WORK WHEN STARTING. I WENT TO GET BOYS AND I'M GLAD I DIDN'T HAVE THEM WHEN IT DIED IN MIDDLE OF ROAD SMOKING I GOT...

IGNITION SWITCH MALFUNCTION. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VAN WILL DIE BUT IF YOU BUMP THE KEY THE POWER TO EVERYTHING TURNS BACK ON IT STARTED THIS LAST YEAR AND CONTINUES TO DO IT

NAVIGATION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION. ON APPROXIMATELY 8/16 OR 8/17/2017, THE CLOCK DISPLAYED ON THE NAVIGATION SCREEN BECAME STUCK AT "0:00". I'M NOT SURE WHETHER THIS AFFECTS THE ACTUAL NAVIGATION FUNCTION, GPS SYSTEM, OR OTHER ELECTRICAL (OR NON-ELECTRICAL) COMPONENTS. I BELIEVE THE DVD-BASED NAVIGATION SYSTEM HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE WAS MANUFACTURED BY ALPINE FOR HONDA (AND MANY OTHER AUTO MANUFACTURERS). I HAVE UPDATED MY MAP/SOFTWARE DVD TWICE SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2002. I HAVE TURNED THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND THE CAR ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES, REMOVED THE SOFTWARE/MAPS DVD AND REINSERTED IT, AND PERFORMED MANY OTHER ATTEMPTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM, ALL WITHOUT SUCCESS.

RECENTLY, WHILE DRIVING MY CAR ON THE FREEWAY MY CAR DECIDEDS TO SHUT OFF WHICH IS SCARY AND HAS HAPPENDED MORE THAN ONCE AND NOT HAVING THE SPEED OF CONTROL OF TRYING TO GET OVER WHEN YOU ARE IN THE FAST LANE. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS OF TIMES. MY MAIN CONCERN IS HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS HAPPENED TO BEFORE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND A SERIOUS SITUATION BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW IF THE CAR BEHIND YOU WILL SLOW DOWN. I ALWAYS END UP PRESSING MY EMERGENCY LIGHT RIGHT AWAY, HOPING THE OTHER DRIVERS ARE PAYING ATTENTION BECAUSE I AM DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. FIVE KIDS I TAKE TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY AND MY MAIN CONCERN IS THERE SAFTEY AT ALL TIMES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE AIR CONDITIONING TURNED OFF AND THE ENGINE LOST POWER. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE ALTERNATOR BRACKET WAS FRACTURED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED THREE OTHER TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200,000.

I PURCHASED THE HONDA ODYSSEY 2002 ON TUES JULY 28TH 930PM AND WAS DRIVING HOME. I LIVED 1 HOUR AWAY FROM THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. UPON DRIVING FOR FIRST 40 MINUTES OF HIGHWAY AROUND 1020PM AS I ENTERED JERSEY CITY, NJ THE VAN STALLED AT VERY 1ST TRAFFIC INTO THE CITY. IT CAME UP WITH 2 INDICATORS: TCS AND MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP. THE ENGINE INDICATOR IS STILL ON. I TRIED TO DRIVE THE VAN FROM TRAFFIC LIGHT AND IT WOULDN'T GO OVER 20MPH WHILE RPM WOULD MOVE TO 4-5. I PULLED OVER AND WAITED 5 MINUTES, TURNED OFF THE VAN AND RESTARTED. I DROVE/MADE IT HOME SLOWLY WITH MY HEART PUMPING VERY FAST. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT HONDA IS GOING TO DO TO TAKE CARE OF THESE PROBLEMS. THE VAN HAD GONE THROUGH MULTI POINT INSPECTION AND WE WERE AWARE OF KNOWN ISSUES BUT THESE TRANSMISSION ISSUE WAS IN THE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY. WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE KEY FELL OUT OF THE IGNITION AS THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO MOVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 165,000. UPDATED 09/21/15*LJ

FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN I MAKE LEFT TURNS, WHETHER FROM A STOPPED POSITION OR A SPEED OF 0-5MPH, THE VAN JERKS AND SLOWS TO A ALMOST STOP. I AM AFRAID THAT IT WILL SHUT DOWN AND CAUSE A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT ONE DAY. I HAVE CALLED HONDA A FEW TIMES TO INQUIRE ABOUT IT AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE. THE BREAKS ARE ONLY A YEAR OLD AND SEEMS TO WORK FINE BUT THERE IS A NOISE EVERY TIME I PUSH THE BRAKES. NOT THE USUAL BAD BRAKES SOUND BUT LIKE A TAPPING SOUND. ALSO THE 2 PASSENGER SLIDING DOORS WILL NOT CLOSE OR OPEN AT TIMES AS WELL AS THE BACK WINDOWS. THE MOTORS HAS BEEN CHANGED IN THE PANEL BOX, PLEASE WHAT COULD IT BE AND IS THERE ANY HELP HONDA SHOULD BE DOING AS THEY HAVE STATED THESE PROBLEMS AREN'T UNDER WARRANTY?...

WHEN WE ARE GOING UPHILL FROM FULL STOPPED IT SEEMS THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT PICKING UP AND IT SOUNDS LIKE SLIPPAGE OF THE GEAR. THEN THE YELLOW CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR LIGHTS UP AND WHEN WE GOT HOME I GRABBED MY CODE READER AND SAYS P0730 INCORRECT GEAR RATIO AND P0505 IDLE. THERE IS NO CRASH BUT ALMOST BECAUSE THE CAR BEHIND US ARE REALLY FAST GOING UPHILL AND BECAUSE IM NOT PRESSING THE BRAKE SO MOST LIKELY HE DIDN'T SEE THAT WERE ARE NOT MOVING WITH THE CURRENT FLOW OF TRAFFIC PLUS IT HAPPENED AT NIGHT AT AROUND 11:05 PM AFTER I DROPPED OFF MY WIFE TO WORK. MY FOOT IS IN THE GAS PEDAL WHEN I NOTICED WE ARE NOT ACCELERATING NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. ALL YOU CAN HEAR IS SLIPPAGE OF GEAR BUT IDLE IS GOING UP WITHOUT POWER. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE SLIDING DOOR CAME OPEN ABOUT 10 INCHES WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. THE POWER DOOR QUIT LATCHING AND THE DOOR AJAR LIGHT WAS ON RANDOMLY. FOR THE REST OF THE TRIP, WE HAD TO KEEP PRESSING THE BUTTON TO SHUT THE DOOR EVERY TIME IT CAME OPEN. WE ALSO HAD TO MOVE THE KIDS AROUND SO THAT NO ONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT CLOSEST TO THE DOOR. THIS SAME THING HAPPENED WITH THE DRIVER-SIDE SLIDING DOOR TWO YEARS AGO. VERY EXPENSIVE FIX, NOT TO MENTION, YOUNG CHILDREN RIDING IN THE VAN AND HAVING THE DOOR RANDOMLY POP OPEN IS DANGEROUS AND A LIABILITY ISSUE. I SEE ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS HAS BEEN A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE ODYSSEY. IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. THIS COULD BE VERY POOR PR FOR HONDA IF SOMEONE'S DOOR COMES OPEN AND A CHILD FALLS OUT. *TR

VEHICLE LOST POWER...WOULD NOT SHIFT INTO HIGHER GEAR. VEHICLE CONTINUES TO HAVE PROBLEMS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION. HAVE READ MANY POSTS REGARDING ISSUES WITH HONDA ODYSSEY HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT MERGED TO THE SHOULDER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 104,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE NORMALLY, WE NOTICED ALL OF THE DASHBOARD "IDIOT LIGHTS" COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN WE WOULD MAKE A TURN OR DECELERATE. FINALLY THEY CAME ON AND STAYED ON AND THE AIR CONDITIONING STOPPED WORKING. WE TOOK THE VAN TO OUR TRUSTED MECHANIC AND HE FOUND A BROKEN ALTERNATOR BRACKET. HE WELDED IT AND SENT US ON OUR WAY. TWO WEEKS LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENED. HE THEN INSTALLED A NEW ALTERNATOR BRACKET. ABOUT 10 DAYS LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AND HE FOUND THE NEW BRACKET HAD ALSO BROKEN. HE THOUGHT THAT PERHAPS THE ALTERNATOR WAS "DRAGGING" ON THE BELT AND CAUSING STRAIN ON THE BRACKET, SO HE REPLACED THE BRACKET AND ALTERNATOR. CAR WORKED FINE FOR ANOTHER WEEK AND THEN THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED. HE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM WITH HONDA ODYSSEYS, BUT THAT HONDA IS NOT FIXING THE...

DRIVER'S SIDE SLIDING DOOR WOULD NOT LATCH. HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH IT THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. AT THOSE TIMES, I MANUALLY CLOSE THE DOOR. TWO TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK, I DID THIS. SEEMED TO HAVE LATCHED SINCE THE LIGHT WENT OUT. DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD ON THAT SIDE, SECURED IN A CAR SEAT AND THE DOOR OPENED - EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE SWITCH TO MANUAL. HAD TO TRY TO GET OFF THE ROAD, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME PUTTING THE SWITCH TO AUTOMATIC AND HOLDING DOWN THE CLOSE BUTTON. VERY DANGEROUS!!!!! AFTER LOOKING ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND THAT THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. I WOULD THINK IT WOULD BE A SEVERE LIABILITY FOR HONDA. CURRENTLY HAVE APPROXIMATELY 140,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY ---LOUD NOISES AND THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AND VAN WAS GOING NOWHERE---COULD ONLY MOVE IF SPEED WAS KEPT UNDER 20MPH KEPT IN FIRST GEAR----------BROUGHT VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS( HE TOLD ME THE TRANNY WAS BAD AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ) ONLY HAVING MILEAGE IN THE 54000-55000 RANGE AND KNOWING THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN AROUND TOWN AND THE OCCASIONAL VACATION TRIP SINCE WE BOUGHT IT NEW. I CALLED HONDA AND WAS GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT HONOR MY MECHANICS DIAGNOSIS AND I NEEDED TO BRING IT TO A HONDA DEALER. THEY AGREED AND TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ALSO AND CHARGED ME $120.00 FOR MY "DIAGNOSIS". THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THEY COULD REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AND COMPUTER FOR $7800.00. THEY TOLD ME BOTH THE COMPUTER AND TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT THE SAME...

ABOUT 20+ TIMES, WHILE DRIVING AND THEN APPLYING THE BRAKES AT LOW SPEED, ALL OF THE DASHBOARD/INSTRUMENTS PANEL LIGHTS FLASHES ON BRIEFLY, THEN TURNS OFF. THE HONDA DEALER COULD NOT FIX THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT REPRODUCE THIS INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. THEN ON 10/14/2011, THE SAME THING OCCURRED AGAIN BUT IN ADDITION TO ALL OF THE DASHBOARD/INSTRUMENTS PANEL LIGHTS FLASHING, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHERE IT COULD NOT BE TURNED AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT (ALMOST RAN OVER A PEDESTRIAN). LUCKILY THE BRAKES STILL WORKED. AFTER TURNING OFF THE ENGINE, PULLING OUT THE KEY, AND THEN RESTARTING IT, THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY. MANY OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM ON THE HONDA ODYSSEY OWNER'S FORUM AT: HTTP://WWW.ODYCLUB.COM/FORUMS/9-PROBLEMS-CONCERNS/1365-2002-DASHBOARD-LIGHTS-FLASH.HTML THIS IS A KNOWN HONDA PROBLEM WHERE THEY ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) #03-902, WHICH CAN BE SEEN AT: HTTP://WWW.TEGGER.COM/HONDAFAQ/TSB/ODYSSEY/X03-902E.PDF THIS TSB SHOWS THAT REPLACING THE ALTERNATOR FIXES THIS PROBLEM. MY...

I OWN A 2002 HONDA ODYSSEY WHICH HAS HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS. THESE ARE 1.WINDSHIELD THAT WAS NOT SEATED PRPERLY AND WOULD WHISTLE WHEN DRIVING AT 55MPH. THIS TOOK 4 VISITS TO THE DEALER BEFORE RESOLUTION WHICH WAS A NEW WINDSHIELD. 2.
