Hi josh_hester,

Thank you for the donation.

Problem indicates a power supply interruprion and these items are serviced by the # 1 fuse in under dash fuse box. Check if fuse is blown.

Recently the radio and gauges on the dash stopped working suddenly and the car started to sputter. Then a few miles down the road, the car completely died. We took the battery to O'Reilly's and they tested it and told us that it was bad. So we went and purchased a new one. It's a day and a half later and the car started to do the same thing: radio stopped working, gauges stopped working and the car started to sputter. Had a mobile mechanic come out to replace the alternator but they said it was working fine. Possibly something draining the batter. Where can we start looking? Terminals hooking up to the battery? Bad wiring?

That is a generic transmission code. You need to be able to scan to the transmission module and find out what the code is. A generic scanner(autozone scanner) won't do it. You need to get an enhanced scanner or take it to a shop that will do it. HTH.

% own a '92 Accord. Apparently I had some sort of "control module" fail. All dash guages stopped working, along with all power windows. Fuses controlling these items have been replaced. What module do I need to replace? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

It's not going to be a module problem. It's going to be a fuse, fusible link, ignition switch or related wiring problem. You will need to trace the problem systematically using a test light.

Hi kevin45,

If all the gauges do not work, check the gauge fuse.

Hi GREGSAUTO,

Recheck the meter cluster, the replacement could be faulty.

Electrical problem
1994 Honda Accord 4 cyl Automatic 124421 miles

we bought a used car, and the same day we drove it off all of the gauges quit working. We took it back to the auto broker place we bought it from and they replaced the dash cluster. Why would the mileage be different on the new cluster than on the one that was in the car to begin with? HELP! I am afraid I have been scammed!

Hi joely,

If they had replaced the meter cluster without recalibrating the mileage readings, they definitely would not match.
