I have a 2010 Honda Accord EX-L, V6 Sedan. It has the SRS light illuminated and its getting me worried. I hear that there is an MES connector located somewhere around under the dash but I don't know the exact point. So, please, can you help me by telling me where to find the MES connector and how to go about resetting the SRS on this model? Thanks in anticipation.

The first thing you need to do is have the codes read in the air bag computer and let me know the exact code numbers not code descriptions? Otherwise were just guessing why the lights on.

I have had this issue for a week now when suddenly the airbag light came on and followed by A/C shut down and gauges moving up and down working intermittently. I took the car to the dealer and did resetting to the ECM/PCM program, but they suggested to change the speedometer cluster due to circuit shortage. I took the car to another expert electrician specialized in speedometer cluster and he said that it is altered and reduced to a lower km previously( I am the second owner), but it could be the body control module(BCM) needs to checked or changed. I already placed online purchase to get a used speedometer cluster before asking the electrician and costs alot.
What do you think of the cause?
Where can I find the BCM?
How can I make sure that it will work after replacing the speedometer cluster or BCM?
Best regards

Bcm 's don't control a/c or clusters. It may be just a bad cluster. But scan it to see if anything comes up.

If you don't have a pro style scanner then it won't pic k up anything. If it's an auto parts type it onlypicks up engine/transmission codes.

I have 160,200 miles. It runs good. I take to the mechanic regularly. But my mechanic thinks it is a electronic problem.
1) I tried to get fix the ABS light a year back. He did temparay fix. Last for few months. He thinks that it requires replacing two sensors. I am not sure what is the recommended cost to fix this issue or is it worth?
2) SRS light started coming off and on. I tried to adjust my belt and it worked temporarily. Some times it worked alright, when I put my belt before any move. Now it stays permanently. Mechanic was saying the same electronic issue. I am not sure what is the issue and what is the recommended price. If I take to dealer it cost more. Please guide on both items as a permanent fix

The SRS light on our 2000 Honda Accord came on. It is a 4-cylinder with about 115,000 miles.

Is this something that has to addressed immediately or does this just mean that the airbags may not deploy properly? Also, what is the "cut off system"?

What can I expect this to cost if a repair is needed?

The vehicle should not be affected but the air bags probably will not deploy. I would call that significant so I suggest you first check the fuses on the vehicle.

You need to scan and retrieeve the trouble code to find out what is causing the transmission and SRS indicator light to come on.

Recommended transmission fluid is Honda ZF transmission fluid or equivalent.

The SRS is another matter and normal code readers would not be able to get the codes. You need specialised scan tool for that.

For P0780, it is a mechanical fault in the hydraulic system and can be due to faulty solenoid switches or pressure control solenoids. You need to perform test/substitution of solenoids and if problem is not resolved, you either need to rebuild the transaxle or replace it.

Most likely they pulled the fuse. It most likely was not repaired properly. Have a shop put the system back on line and find out what needs to be repaired.
