Please help! Electrical problem
Please help, My key fob, power door locks and turn signals have all stopped working and my wipers work only on high speed . I've checked most of the fuses and all are good. Anyone ever have this problem?

I am past waranty, My most recent is added an amp and subs. This really seems like a fuse or a relay. I'm going to try to disconnect and reconnect the battery. Maybe a relay is hung up.

When i went out to reset the battery I saw the positive terminal heavily corroded. Cleaned it up, reconnected but still nothing. I'm puzzled. Anyone have a better fuse location diagram without the acronyms?

well if something wasnt wired up correctly or if the positive touched or is still touching bare metal u couldve blown a lot more than a fuse. a guy came to my shop a couple of months ago with a similar problem heavily corroded battery...improper wiring (not saying its the same as your problem) his battery discharged into the chassis and shorted out his harness. so whoever did the install couldve done something wrong id go over everything myself and see how it was all run and if they screwed something up because then they would have to cover the fix if u went to a shop.

what do you mean most of the fuses...those things cud mean 2 or even 1 fuse, check the right ones...there's 2 places the fuses sit, one fusebox under the hood and another in the cabin.

Today (after I made an appointment with Acura) went out and checked all the fuses, under the hood and inside the car. They all checked good. After a few hours I went back and checked the connectors and wires under the steering wheel and driver's side kick panel where the control modules are located, pushed the wires into the connectors made sure all the connections were tight. I'm not sure if after I did that ,that I checked to see if the problem was fixed or not but when i came back out about 2 hours or so everything was working again! I also removed the acc power line i have fused into the fuse box for the amp's remote power. Either way something fixed it or it's just going to be an intermittent nightmare for me. When I got off of work I'll hook the amp remote wire back up to see if the problem comes back or not.

I do a lot of electrical work on my car too and once in awhile you get a glitch like that. It is irritating and terrifying at the same time. You're pissed because you're in the middle of a project and it's the last thing you need if you want to drive the car the next day and it's scary because you know you did it and it won't be under warranty and you may have messed up a host of fuses or computers. What I learned though is, don't panic, it's usually minor (unless you smell burning plastic....that's means something shorting and you are SCREWED) and retrace. You will usually come to the bottom of the simple problem. It usually is a fuse/power supply problem.

Did you tap your amp remote wire into an existing fuse, or did you tap into the extra fuse spot? What MIGHT be happening is your drawing too much, and possibly a safety precaution things shut down? IDK
