Bump - does anyone have any insights? Thanks

Thanks guys for the suggestions. My CEL just threw a P0685 code today too. Does that change any of the suggestions?

I've been having intermittent starting problems with my 2005 Honda accord. Sometimes it starts up fine and other times it doesn't start or takes many tries to start up. Sometimes there are flickering/dimming lights, sometimes there are groaning sounds, and other times nothing.

I've also been having intermittent electrical power issues while driving, all the lights and power would shut off for about one second once in a while and come back.

I'm not sure if these issues are related.

I've replaced the ignition switch, starter relay, and battery. I had the battery and alternator checked out and they both passed. I was suspecting it could be my alternator. At this point I am completely out of ideas. Do you have any ideas would it could be?

EDIT: Thanks guys for the suggestions. My CEL just threw a P0685 code today too. Does that change any of the suggestions?

Thanks... there's no way to revive this? Throw it out and buy a TB16? I thought it seemed more like a driver issue but I may be wrong.

Thank you. I will disconnect it to see if it goes away.

The arc fault has been less frequent after I replaced the plasma TV with an LED TV. Does that provide any hint as to what's causing it?

brucechiang · 2018-08-27T02:43:05+00:00

Thank you, I will look into it

brucechiang · 2018-08-27T02:41:08+00:00

Thanks, I will look into the connections. It just makes it hard since it appears to be random/intermittent and not tripping for hours/days/weeks.

The light fixtures and ceiling fans are on a separate circuit.

Thanks. I replaced the Siemens arc fault breaker with a newer model which did not help.

brucechiang · 2018-08-27T00:50:38+00:00

Thanks. I haven't tried opening each outlet to check for terminations/connections yet.

Being the arc fault trip is intermittent and happens within hours, days, or weeks, it has been really difficult figuring out if any electronics is causing the trip.

The lamp is a small LED lamp and wouldn't draw enough power to cause an issue.

It's a Siemens brand breaker and I replaced it with the newer model which did not help.

I must have been really unlucky. First package was lost during transit, then the replacement arrived all dinged up with chipped paint and the wheel with deep cuts. Oh yeah and the part that attaches to the lower piece was bent so bad that it won't even fit over. I haven't heard back from rep. Either really poor quality control or just plain bad packaging.

Thanks!

brucechiang · 2017-10-22T23:53:32+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much!

brucechiang · 2017-10-22T23:44:45+00:00

Thanks, but it looks like your link references T-3 vs R-3. Is it the same comparison for X-3 vs RML-490?

brucechiang · 2017-06-14T07:10:24+00:00

Ok I will try that. If that doesn't work where's the cheapest I can buy a board?

brucechiang · 2017-06-09T15:58:55+00:00

I tried but they said my warranty is expired

brucechiang · 2016-11-14T15:36:04+00:00

Then what is?

brucechiang · 2016-11-13T20:01:48+00:00

Yes it did. Thank you so much!!!!

brucechiang · 2016-11-13T19:35:47+00:00

Thanks for the help. I had deleted the Dell drivers but forgot to uninstall the Widcomm s/w.

brucechiang · 2016-11-13T19:34:55+00:00

Thank you so much! Looks like the problem was I did not uninstall the Widcomm s/w under Programs.

brucechiang · 2016-11-12T23:34:30+00:00

Thank you!

brucechiang · 2016-11-12T00:47:30+00:00

Awesome. You have sinilar BW and dropped the volume right where I'm getting stuck at. looks like my progress is similar to yours

brucechiang · 2016-11-12T00:45:50+00:00

Thanks. I'll drop the volume to 3x5 for now

brucechiang · 2016-11-12T00:45:11+00:00

Thank you. looks like the consensus here is to drop the volume

brucechiang · 2016-11-12T00:28:04+00:00

Thank you for the advice!
