Sounds like the went into limp mode and turning it off and then restarting it got you out of limp. Did the car completely shut off?

Sounds like one of the main fuses is going bad, if you were able to push it down and restart the car. I would take it to an independent Acura shop and have them look at it. You could replace the fuse you touched that allowed you to start the engine.
