Honda Car Forum

I have a 4 cylinder Honda Accord 2002 LX,it was a heavy snow and I had problem taking the car out of the snow and also, on the way, there was lots of snow under the car which was touching the underneath of the car.At the night when coming back home, I saw that the 'Check' led is on (the malfunction led) and also I feel like there is a little problem in the brakes, when I apply half-brake on a low speed, after 2 or 3 seconds, it applys a stronger brake for a moment and then becomes back to normal.Where is the problem from? is it because of snow? What are the probable damages?Any ideas? Thank you

i would suggest pulling it into a heated garage and letting all the snow and ice melt from the under body.

that feeling could be from the AS, try resetting the computer, remove the positive side of the battery for a few moments, and then re-install ,check the led if it goes off and stay's off all is well if it goes back on then start a new search.

if you go to auto zone or some kind of auto store you could get a OBD II reader with will tell you what the check engine light means if you have some auto know how you could figure it out on how to fix it if not take it to your mecanic and tell him the light came on most the time its a censor ....

There's no way to diagnose check engine light with out scanning the code.Have the engine code scanned. Do it at autozone or get a scanner. Cheap ones can be bought for as little as $50 at Autozone, Sears, and Advanced auto parts.If you try to "fix" your problem without the code you are chasing ghosts and you will waste more money than you will save (by not getting a scanner).Good Luck.
