Need help locating the hoodswitch on the RDX 2007 please, I have looked but dont see it.
Battery is gone and need to boost to go get a new one, I need to keep 2 buttons pressed on my stupid booster so I need to use the remote starter to start the rdx but the wood switch doesnt allow the remote starter, I leave alone and in a remote location, so would be nice to find that switch and fast :-)

 

what?

 

Haha

I'm going to take a flying wag at this:

The battery is dead and he has the hood raised to attach a battery booster. For some reason, he has to hold buttons on the battery booster, so he can't reach the ignition switch to start the car.

So he wants to use the remote starter to start the car, BUT the remote starter is disabled when the computer sees the hood is raised. (Hood switch is part of the security system.)

So he wants to close the hood switch with the hood up, enabling the remote starter to work.

The hood switch is integral to the hood latch. If you close the hood latch while the hood is up, it should close the hood switch and let the remote starter work.

Remember to unlatch the hood latch before you try to close the hood.

 

Thats right XLR8R, I finaly found where the switch was seatuad and was able to start the RDX bypassing the wood switch closing the latch.
Sorry didnt had the time to come and report.
Thanks

 

wood switch? I thought they were all plastic/metal?
