Honda Car Forum

Hello all.

I have a 6 month old Jazz with 8500klm in Australia.

It is the 1.5ltr with the CVT transmission.

On three occasions I have had an issue where The "Malfunction Indicator
Lamp" the "ABS" warning lamp come on and the "D" gear indicator lamp
flashes.


These have happened a week apart and each time have been repaired by a Honda
service centre.

The first time they stated it was a loose connection.
The second time they stated it was a faulty ABS module which was replaced
under warranty.
The third time I have been told it was faulty wiring.

Has anybody else experienced this problem ?
How was it rectified etc ?

I am not upset with the service centre as they have been great and provided
immediate service.
I am also very happy with the vehicle .

Just interested if it has happened before or if there is a similar problem
with others.

Thanks.
Pat

I wasn't quoted any codes or given any work orders.

Thanks

You should quote the CODES that they provided on the work orders.

than take it to a shop and get the codes read! there are literally
thousands of reasons why the lights comes on. you need to use a reader
so the computer can tell you which code it is.

You also dont' have a 'paper trail' in case anything goes wrong later,
and maybe your dealer is doing some warranty fraud on HONDA corporate?

When it comes time to resell it, I wouldn't buy your car if you didn't
have any service records, but tried to tell me a big story about all the
important work that Honda (supposedly) did for free :-( Bogus.
