You have saved my day. And a mechanic bill. I thought my problem could be ground and it was. Thank you for turning your problems into solutions for us all.
No problem, thank you for your comment.
@@AWordFromMrJonesThat fusible link you have the part number?
@@Hannibal54689 I can't recall because there are 2 part #'s.
I would recommend to call Acura and confirm that this is the correct part# 38233-TZ5-A01 (Acura Multi Block Fuse D).

Here's the 2nd part # 38232-TRX-A01 (Acura Multi Block Fuse D).

@@AWordFromMrJones Thank you so much
Had this issue on my 2016 MDX. Fuses looked good. Took battery to be tested and it tested good. Talked the auto store employee into swapping it out for me since it was under warranty. Came home and installed it an No more lights! Don’t let a battery that tests good stop you from trying another.
Appreciate the tip Robert.
I had same issue when i cleaned the battery it fixed the problem so by u posting this video may had saved alot of people money good job.👍👍
Appreciate your feedback.
2016 MDX here. Cleaned, sanded, and tightened my battery terminals, but it didn't help. My fuse blocks were good and clean visually, but went ahead and cleaned them with WD40 electrical contact cleaner. A leg of a roach or a bug came out, problem solved and all warning lights are gone. I'm not sure if it was the leg or dirty contact, but thanks OP's awesome video.
Good deal, appreciate the comment. It’s possible the contact was a-bit off due to the debris.
LOL this is a fairly common issue that randomly occurs even if you have a perfectly good battery and no corrosion. The act of simply disconnecting the battery resets many electrical components including ECU so your "cleaning" fix was likely coincidental and it was the actual power source disconnection itself that reset the computer.
From a fellow Marylander (Ravens fan) I say a big THANK YOU for this clear and concise video. My wife and I appreciate the fact that you posted that video and she can have her car for the weekend without worrying about these X-mas lights as you called them 🙂. I cleaned the battery leads and took a step further by applying some anti-corrosion grease to both leads as well. Problem went away!
Great tips...great public service. Both my Acura and I send to a big THANK YOU!🎉
Happened to my 2016 TLX. If you do replace your battery, which I did, do not use a”refurbished” or any other kind of used battery. It will not produce the same voltage. They may say it does but, it doesn’t. My car still lit up like a Christmas tree. I purchased a NEW battery and it the car has had no issue. Have a great day!
Fixed my issues...2015 MDX...
Had 7 warnings in total...Power Steering, VSC, Hill Assist, Tow, Emission, LDW, and LKAS. The lights came after a cold morning start where the car failed to start a few times. Watched the video, cleaned the terminals and now all lights and warnings are gone.
Glad this video was helpful💯
This just happened to me on a used 2015 that I just purchased YESTERDAY. I was absolutely lost on what to do. Going to try this out. So thankful for this video 🙏🏾
Man, thanks for this video! Just had the same thing happen to my 2014 MDX and seeing all those things lighting up freaked me out. Figured it was electrical, but didn’t expect it to be so easy. Cleaned the corrosion and fixed it right up!
I have a 2016 RDX. Same thing is happening as we speak. I'm going to take it to the mechanic to have the posts cleaned. I tried the ole baking soda and water trick but I really need to remove everything to get underneath the terminals. Thanks. I'll let ya know if my issue was resolved. Fingers are mos def crossed.
You are a life saver! My 2014 was a loose ground. First time it happened and there are not many videos on the mk3 models of the MDX but this one is the right one. Ty a million times
No problem, appreciate the comment.
Thank you for sharing. When my battery was replaced on my 2019 MDX Sh-awd two weeks ago. I have a Christmas tree. Dealer did a diagnostic and said it could be a short. ( vehicle was there for rod bearing replacement recall) I had an Acura tech work on the truck and couldn’t turn off the lights. Will try and update.
@@mmone1178 did the lights go off?
Thank you SO MUCH for this video!! I was SICK thinking it was something Electrical 🤦🏽♀️ 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Welcomed.
Just had same issue on 2015 MDX, and advised my mechanic based on your video. This may fix but will know soon and will update one I know. Thanks!
Cool, I am going to copy a message I sent to another UA-camr. If the battery is not your problem, please have your mech look at the following:
Be sure to check the fuses to ensure none of the fuses are blown or have corrosion.
Now if that does not fix the issue, purchase a check engine line tester from Amazon, check the MDX to see if it's pulling a either crank or camshaft sensor faults. If so, your going to want to call the dealership to see if they can work out a good deal for complete timing belt replacement because the sensor is in the same area of the timing belt.
Thanks
@@AWordFromMrJones Thanks for the updated info! I reseated all the fuses and am having the battery replaced as after reseating the fuses, the problem magically went away but the battery is over 4 years old so that may be the culprit. If no more issues I will update for the benefit of all who have viewed this. Thanks again for putting this out there!!! BTW, I had the timing belt replaced at 105K miles. I currently have 140K miles on it...
@@brianb5594 Good to hear and thank you for the update.
I have a 2017 MDX that was giving me the same issue, it tuned out being the battery vent fan shorting out. The dealership replaced it under warranty. The issue was resolved after that.
Good information, thank you for sharing.
Say man you saved my day with this video my positive terminal was carotid pretty bad I clean it up real good and that did the trick for me nomore Christmas lights appreciate you boss 💪🏼
On one of the forum I also read that it could be bad connections to the alternator as well. I have same issue and gonna try it tonight! Thank you
Also it could be either the Cam/Crankshaft Position Sensor. To identify that you would grab an OBD2 scanner to see if any codes popup. I believe there will not be an actual Check Engine light that comes on if this is the issue.
I would grab a tool of Amazon to save time and money.
Thanks
Mine had codes for ABS system. Secondary DTCs P2638 "Torque Management feedback signal A Range/Performance. Im still trying to narrow it down.
Very useful. I think my issue was a loose neg battery terminal. Cleaned up and tightened down both. Xmas is over!
Much appreciated, yeah Xmas is defiantly around the corner lol..
Yea this isn't what I'm looking at at all, you helped about as much as karen does when she says "you're in my thoughts and prayers!"👍
Lol this comment is awesome, appreciate the feedback 💯
It just happened to me a minute ago .Thanks bro It was so helpful
This just happened to me today and I freaked out. I have a 2017 rdx. Took it to the dealership and they said I needed to change out my camera because it connects to all of those sensors. And that if I didn’t have it fixed I won’t pass my inspection in the future. They wanted to charge me $2000 to change out the battery and get it calibrated.
@@Kellyngo1981 They told me the same thing. But aftwr getting the car and exterior detail the lights turned off. however yesterday i was in standstill traffic on an overpass and after a big rig drove past me causing the overpass to shale the lights came back on, so I plan on checking the sensors before i decide to go in and pay the 2k for the camera change
Hello young man
Thank you for all your videos they re sn 24:32 excellent source of info
And you are very through.
But recently i came accros an issue in my acura mdx 2010 vsa, trailer assist, and check sh-awd lights came on
I look through so many videos till i came accross one that i had not seen
As to how to fix that particular problem
This was 2nd gen acura mdx 2007 long story short
HE REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH
And boay that Sh🤬t fix the problem in my 2010 acura mdx no more christmas tree on my dashboard
Am not a mechanic and i dont know how to post videos that s why i come to you.
Thanks i will appreciate it dearly.
I FYI I did check my fuse link that has the vsa fuse on it and it was fine
Acura TLX 2015 all lights on! It was the battery👍🏾
GOOD deal!
Hey, I appreciate your video. I have a 2020 Acura TLX and last summer it was doing this exact thing. I would disconnect the battery and wait a couple minutes and then I would connect it and then it would go away. And then once got out and fall and winter had no problems. today as I speak to you, all the lights came on and lit up like a Christmas tree and it has not happened at all since last summer. Do you still think it’s the battery because I think the heat has something to do with anybody’s advice would be appreciative thank you.
That's a good perspective because the MDX has a battery cooling mechanism. I would check the date of the battery to see how old it is, you should get at least 3-4 years out the battery. Anything else can lead to unforeseen issues although I have seen batteries live longer but they may experience issues with temperatures. Often, a old battery has issues maintaining full power during the winter if not used often. I would assume that an old battery may also have issues keeping cool during summer depending on the temperature.
Thank you brother. Worked like a chram. 🙏🏿
Taking of the battery terminals just erased the soft codes not fix the problem unless the problem didnt come back? Any updates?
Similar issue with my Pilot. Will try this to see if it works. Thanks!
Seems that I am the only one here that the issue exists even after replacing the battery. 2017 MDX.
I am going to check the fuses next.
I’m having the same problem. I replaced my battery a few months ago. Just replaced my alternator with a used oem. Lights went away for a month. Now they’re back and the car is doing more weird stuff along with all the lights being lit.
Hello guys, didi you find a way to fix this issue?
The 2017 RDX I traded a Sportage for has this problem, new battery because the one in it was a under rated battery, new EVS sensor, had Acura clear the codes, it went maybe 7 months and is doing it again. Disconnect the battery and reconnect, lights are off, for a while. I will try cleaning both fusible links next.
The loose ground wire to shut the brake lights off on Acura DMX I have a brand new battery. Only two months old haven’t checked the fuses yet though
Bad ground to chassis under air intake that covers the battery on my 2018 pilot. Loosen and retightened FTW!
Please pleased post a video about your fix.
Hi Boss are you saying if I pull off that air intake plastic tube off of my 2007 all my lights are on for the brake system I will check the fuse first thanks any help is appreciated
This just happened to me! Terrible corrision on the positive terminal. Cleaned it somewhat but I think the battery might be shot. The AC compressor cycles every half second so I am thinking the battery wasn't being charged by the ALT.
Lack of power can cause all sorts of interment issues. I would defiantly replace that battery is it's more then 3-4 years. Now a days they don't make parts like they use to, so even a new battery can be defective next month.
Thanks, just what I needed
Welcomed.
Going bak on if there a problem after u drive it around
I have this issue now. However, i just picked my car up after habing an accident where the passenger front tire came off while i was driving. Damaged the body of my car aroind the wheel well. The wheel is fuxed, but now the lights are on. Could the repair or accident have triggered this?
Good afternoon. I have a Acura MDX 08. I'm in a hard position. No help just me and my 6yr old son. Can u help guide me to fix myself please? It would be a blessing. I have all lights on all in a matter of 15 minutes even the check transmission and check engine, VSA, ABS, ADS. My question is my power steering has a big leak. Could this cause the Christmas lights going on?
I have the exact same problem mine is. 2018 what battery seems fine 2 years old any other ideas?
I hope this is the issue
Hello friend, could you tell me the name of the piece as I look for it on the internet?
Sadly, the 2017 rdx I got does this, new battery, EVS sensor, cleaned ground cable connecton at frame. Went months, did it again, disconnected battery for 1 minute, codes gone til next time. So its sti an ongoing issue. So I'll try reseating fuses.
My parents have a 2017 mdx with the same exsct issue and original battery. Going to try doing this to see if it works
Good deal. Now if this does not work, be sure to check the fuses to ensure none of the fuses are blown or have corrosion.
Now if that does not fix the issue, purchase a check engine line tester from Amazon, check the MDX to see if it's pulling a either crank or camshaft sensor faults. If so, your going to want to call the dealership to see if they can work out a good deal for complete timing belt replacement because the sensor is in the same area of the timing belt.
2019 MDX here getting check engine and 3 warnings: Emissions System Problem, Electric Parking Brake Problem, and All Wheel Drive System Problem
Just had minor body work done on front right bumper and fender. Could that work have shorted something? Vehicle seems to be running just fine.
Shawn, Did you ever find out what was going on with your MDX? I too am running into the same problems. I'm really hoping it's not going to be an expensive fix.
@@alixandreagaumer8346 I don’t have the receipt right in front of me and the vehicles actually in the shop for something else now so I can’t grab it out of the glove box but it ended up costing around $400 and the service writer said that it was typically not some thing that would have to be fixed at the mileage of my vehicle which is around 60,000.
I wish I remembered exactly what the issue was but I do remember the pricing was somewhere in the $400 range
But of course it could be something else that you’re experiencing entirely right? All these computers make things so nice and so difficult.
@@ShawnHonnick my car too is at around 60k miles. 😭 That super sucks. I guess I will be taking it in. Thank you for the reply!! I really appreciate it!!
@@alixandreagaumer8346 I just remembered it was my “purge control valve” and may have actually been from topping off the gas on filling up (don’t do that).
@@alixandreagaumer8346 hi Alixandrea did get your problem fixed? And if so what was wrong with the car? Also if you don't mind how much was the expense? I'm experiencing the same thing on a 2017 Acura MDX. I love hondas. I had a 1997, and 2008 accord and they were so simple. Computers just makes our lives into nightmares....
Yep that was it thanks👍🏾✌🏾
If the lights still are on after all this, reset the ECM?
I have a 2017 MDX this just happened yesterday changed battery today still have all lights all terminals good and alternator tested good any other suggestions before I head to the dealership?
I just found that my case was a #21 7.5 amp fuse blown that powers the battery fan so new battery fan and new fuse
@@ZH81446dealership repair? How much was it?
@@redhulkultra155 yes dealership repair 200$
Similar issue with my 2017 odyssey whenever I would plug my phone in to the car two days later I’ll get the check vsa system, check ldw system and the check fcw system Check parking sensor system
Does this works for a 2011 Acura RL ?
I have a 2005 Acura RL that has started going haywire. Dials start freaking out and while sitting idle a a stop light the car may shut off. It will restart but my wife refuses to drive it. HELP
Did find the problem?
I have a 2017 mdx and that only happen when my battery was tame for me to replace it 5 years with the same battery lol finally when I replaced everything was fine.
LOL got to love when it's a simple fix.
@@AWordFromMrJones hey Replying back it was not the battery was the computer wireless key receiver was damage.
Hey, I was just told the same thing. Was your dashboard lighting up and clicking and unable to start your car?
@@polancoloammi6938 this seems to be a common problem with the mdx and pilot. I saw this fix in a pilot forum. But I’m having more issues then just the lights being lit. I have to press the button twice to shut the engine off, keyless light is flashing even though everything is shut off, steering wheel is moving in and out when I open the door and the accessory chime is ringing when everything is off when I open the door as well. Also sh-awd isn’t working.
@@Allthingsworktogether1125 that is what has me confused. That’s about the only thing my car isn’t doing.
Thanks. Question. What resolved the issue, replacing the fuse or the cleaning of the batteries terminal?
Jose, for this particular issue, cleaning the battery terminals fixed this issue. If it comes back, I will post a video update.
Both terminals? Thank you!!
@@megamanfun Yes sir that is correct, both. However if this does not resolve your issue then I would check the fuse.
Finally I would connect a OBD2 scan tool to see if your getting a P0369 code which would indicate that the camshaft position sensor has failed and needs to be replaced. Which that means you will need to also have your timing belt replace since the sensor is behind the timing belt.
@@AWordFromMrJones Thank you sir. I’m taking the car to the dealer. I will report back with the results and solution.Thanks again.
@@megamanfun Sounds good and thank you.
I had a similar issue when replaced flat tire car was wigged out with error lights. Just get a code reader and clear
One note. disconnecting the battery cable may have "reset" the computer. This may actually have been the remedy.
I have the same issue I already change the fuse but lights still on, any other thing I can do boss.
Probably loose ground cable!Happened to me!
@@gaborszu7691 where is the cable located? Thank you
Disconnecting the batteries addresses the issue temporarily. Something else going on though. I would bet your lights came back on after a while.
Nope, hope all is well 💯
@@AWordFromMrJones good to hear. Not my case. I can overcome the fault by cutting power. Or it just goes away. Can’t find a code (even in diagnostic mode). Must be an intermittent fault. Will check grounds next I guess. While faulting need to double press start button to turn off. That’s a clue I guess. Also the key fob CEL illuminates.
@@formerengineer5784 Interesting, yeah I would check the grounds and reseat the fuses if possible just incase there might be a presence of dirt/slight corrosion.
I know when I had a Land Cruiser I had some sporadic issues which was the crank/camshaft sensors. I believe the CEL did not originally illuminate till later, I had confirmed with a tester. Once those sensors were replaced the issues had resolved.
Hope your able to get your issue resolved soon.
Didn’t work for me going to have to make that trip to the dealership
I wish you the best.
For anyone else that is not able to fix their problem with this video.
If you checked your fuses, grounds, cleaned the terminals and the battery is not that old. Then I would suggest getting a scan tool to check your computer engine for codes. You might have a code pointing to your camshaft position sensor. This type of job will require replacement of your timing belt.
- I say will require because any given time you remove your timing belt for a repair job, it's best to replace the belt with a new timing belt.
Hope you are able to get your MDX fix soon.
Yo salamente cambie el fusible chikito de 7.5 y kedo como nuev0 " seapagaron las luces"
Yo tengo una RDX y me pasa lo mismo, revise todos los fusibles y estan bien, los saque todos, los limpie y volvi a colocar y se apagaron las luces solo por un momento, pase sobre un tope y de vuelta lo mismo. En tu caso ese fusible estaba quemado?
I have 2016 take to me mechanic and he said it’s cámara in front glass
i have replaced a front windshield. i guess camera calibration changed or something. idk what to do
I had lane assist and cruise errors. Code for camera/radar. Brake assist light as well. Dealer replaced and recalibrated camera. $700 part, $400 labor. No errors anymore. Only dealer can do calibration in my area.
What year was your vehicle warranty? Miles on vehicle?
123,000 miles, no warranty ,2017 Mdx
Did dealer charged you for diagnostics? They asked for $199 diagnostics, but I already scan and problem is front windshield camera
@@HieuNguyen-1102 I paid zero to get mines fixed under warranty
I have a code for p0730 anyone had this code and got that problem fix please help
?
I have an “old” car 2002 Buick and all of the warning lights are on💀
For the Buick I would still follow this process by checking the battery connections including the ground and also get your battery tested to ensure there battery does not have dead cells.
@@AWordFromMrJones Thank you!!! I also think it’s because of the battery…
I had these problems and the whole engine went out at 73,000
Geez, I am sorry to hear that. What did you do to resolve your issue?
@@AWordFromMrJones I replaced the whole engine ! $8000.00, but before the engine died on me, Acura did replace a wire harness on the back of the engine. They said that a limited amount of cars had an wiring problem.
@@mikechandler7861 GEEZ! I am sorry to hear that. These Acura MDX are known for reliable engine and transmissions however things do happen but I wouldn't expected issues at 70k miles. That's crazy.
@KeSean Woods Bro, what are your qualifications? What do you know about Acura manufacturing failure rates?
Watch my other videos showing continuous issues from 17 K to 72K. I can also show you numerous Acura inspections that prove maintenance was excellent. They looked at it every time I brought it in. Only had 73k.
If you’re such an expert, please take a look at the engine. Explain how only one piston and bore can be scarred?……but it’s my fault! ?
I am the one who got screwed by Acura! Why do you have to blame me? Right away….without knowing anything about what happened. You work for Acura?
@KeSean Woods Really? That’s what you come back with. Your grandma timing belt? Is that your qualifications? Please don’t make accusations unless you know what your talking about.
