Thanks a lot Stephen ..I didn't know it was called oil pressure switch ..guess that is why i was having trouble finding them..will definitely be ordering them in a few days ..then installing ..I have no idea how to do it..should be interesting..

All you have to do is lift up the car, take the drivers wheel off, and it's right there. one might be covered by a little cover but you can take that off and put it back on. I changes mine when I did the tranny swap. They just screw in with a wrench. Don't over tighten them but snug them up. Why your at it go ahead and replace the fluid as well

Cool thanks for the info..does anyone have a DIY tutorial on this issue..I mean it sounds pretty easy I just visually wanted to have an idea of what I was getting into..as far as replacing my tranny fluid ..I actually did a 3x3 about a week ago? would that affect the switches?

^ here you go it's a 3rd gen tl thread but it's the same thing essentially.

I don't think that a 3x3 would have any adverse effects on the tranny switches.

Did the problems arise after doing the 3x3 drain & fill ?

Were you experiencing tranny problems previously before the 3x3 with shifting ?

I had a situation where I overheated on a 3 hour drive from ny to boston..check engine light came on and the codes were 3rd and 4th gear pressure switch fault..I had the car towed home and when I told my friend/mechanic who is an acura tech he advised me I would need a new tranny..I did a 3x3 with honda tranny fluid, the car just came back to life..and the check engine light went away..here I am about a month later still riding good..I still want to change the switches since those were the original codes..Iv'e seen a bunch people on the forum with this similar problem.

I am bumping an older thread. Is it correct that it's the same part for the 3G and 2G TL?
