Stalls in high revolution ranges SolvedSolved

Honda Civic 2000  250000 miles
My car stalls out of the blue, almost every day. The curious thing about it is that since I've bought it, the check engine light has been turned on, and when it fails this light turns off, just as if the computer was reset for some minutes. When the vehicle stalls, I open the switch and check whether all the lights are on, the only case in which the car starts again. Many times it happens that I open the switch and all the lights but the check engine one are turned on, and then the engine won't start. The scanner has been connected but no code is released (only the ABS code and the Catalytic converter one). Hope someone can help me, thanks.

If the check engine light is on it means that there is some sensor which is damaged, but apparently not causing any failure in your vehicle. On the other hand, if it is off it means that the computer is not opening and thus not sending either spark nor fuel. This failure is not provided by the scanner. Now, as the computer recibes a signal from a fuse and has got a relay, you should first check this two things. After doing so, you should take out the computer and try with a different one.

Thanks, sylvester, it is just as you describe it. It seems as though the problem was the computer. It has been scanned, the computer feeding checked and apparently everything is now ok. I really don't know which was the exact solution, but it has not failed again. Thank you so much.

Take it to the dealership for a quick check maybe an oil change and they should be able to reset and check if it was giving false codes to show check engines lights on, sometimes it's just the gas cap wasn't turned past three clicks.

Stop lamps problem

Honda Civic 2004  145000 miles
Can anybody tell me why the stop lamps do not turn on when I press the brake? Is it a fuse, a sensor or anything in the brake itself? Thanks

Brake noise

Honda Civic 2017 hatchback 2000 miles
Hello just got the car brand new and noticed after 2 weeks on a 3000km on the clock everytime i take off or reverse it makes a metal noise on the very first step on the brakes. I went to a dealer and said it is normal as the brake caliper was designed as it moves with the motion of the car. Is that really happening to a brand new car?

Anti lock brake system

My ABS kicks in just as it should but when it does, I get a noise that sounds almost like a pump not working...the noise quits as soon as I let off the brakes. Any ideas?
