I saw you other posts regarding HFL problems. If you can reboot your phone, that is the first thing to try before attempting to replace BT module.

Canadian 2005 Acura RL

Sorry to revive an old thread but I have a canadian 05 acura RL the car is just sitting at the moment it starts up no problem when I give it a jump but as soon as I turn the car off and come back out not even 20 minutes later the car is completely dead I'm wondering if this has something to do with the hfl unit does anyone know where the location of the hfl is in a Canadian 05 acura RL

The battery is only a month n a half old the battery worked for at least a week before it drained from sitting just like it did with the old battery

so it might be your hfl module. I think it's under right passenger kick panel. Are your door handles (outside) lock/unlock working?

I think it should be there, because our cars are almost same as the American versions with some extra features.
