My dash went black. I drove back into the garage were I could read and scan to brightness. Turned full intensity and the lights came on. I must now leave on full. When I first statup half the screen lights then the second right side. I was hoping to see how lights come on when starting.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

So…if I understand correctly when you start up only half the dash lights up, and then a second or so later the other half of the dash lights up, if that is correct I would recommend taking it to the dealership to fix. In regards to turning up the dashboard lights, typically in a car if you hold that button long enough, the overhead lights come on, the trick there is to incrementally turn up the lights. To be clear, when you start the vehicle, all the dashboard lights should come on at once, not one side then the other. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

I don’t believe the SPORT trim comes with Honda Navigation. So you’ll have to connect your phone (with a cable since SPORT doesn’t offer wireless CarPlay or Android Auto). Once you have connected and choose Apple CarPlay or Android Auto (depends on the make of your phone) then you can access any navigation apps you have installed in your phone. Our video featured the EXL Trim that has both Honda Navigation and Wireless Phone connectivity

Can you explain when the front parking sensor would turn on? I tried to head in today to my garage but nothing shows up. Is it actually how it’s supposed to work? Seems really broken.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. The front sensors are always on and cannot be turned off, they will start to function at speeds of 5mph or less if the vehicle is in any gear other than park or reverse. The front corner centers have a reach of about 24” and the front center sensor (if your vehicle has them) will have a reach of about 26”. In the infotainment screen in camera view, if you use the split screen function (tap the icon with the box and arrow) you will see a picture of the front and rear sensors and they will light up if anything is “sensed”. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

[@manolorayas1974]

I just got my 2024 CRV, Does electronic parking brake automatically engage upon you park?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. To the best of my knowledge, the parking brake does not automatically come on when in Park. It will automatically come on if you brake and come to a stop, then it will apply the parking brake so you don’t have to keep your foot on the brake. It will automatically release when you push the accelerator. Thanks for watching!

Hi there! Help! These two questions may sound pathetic but how to access my odometer on my 2023 CRV EX-L? Also, is there a setting that allows me to answer an incoming phone call by touching the call button on the steering wheel as opposed to having to reach over to the touch screen to answer the phone call? Thanks!!!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. The odometer should be in the middle of your drivers screen between the rpm and mph gauges. You can use the left rotary knob (the one that rolls up and down) when a call is coming in, and rotate it either way, and you will see “answer”, “ignore”, etc show up on the drivers screen, select “answer” and the click the rotary knob.

[@benlaine400]

Did they drop day/night mode brightness?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Now that’s a very good question and the answer is no but they have gotten rid of the buttons you use to be able to click on to set it. So…the day night mode is now controlled by whether or not you have your lights on ….and the dash brightness is set to mid-range. Then, if your headlights are on, it switches to night mode, turn your lights off and it switches back to day mode. Not bright or dark enough, then you need to manually adjust the screen under settings and display to adjust it. How’s that for a mouthful! Wish they would have just left well enough alone. Thanks for watching!

[@SandiEdelson]

Hate to bother you again Nathan and not sure if others have this experience - My 2023 CRV EXL is doing something really dumb. When I back out of my garage, the "Approaching object" alarm beeps with a vengence. I am afraid that it is seeing my garage refrigerator as an oncoming car!!!! How do I adjust that setting? I recall you showed in your video that the approaching vehicle alarm could be shut off. I feel that even if a car was truly approaching me while driving, the alarm is not going to help me prevent a head on collision (unless I was asleep at the wheel that is :) Can you please advise? Thanks. You should win a Nobel prize for your KZbin channel!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Wow, thanks for the compliment!! If you go into your drivers information screen (dashboard), and use the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel, use the scrolling wheel and scroll down to Safety Support and click on it, then using the scrolling wheel again, scroll down to the last icon which is the crash detection safety system, click on it to turn it off. What’s really weird is your backing up when this happens, so if the fix above doesn’t work, try turning of your rear cross traffic warning (second icon from the top-same screen)instead and see if that fixes it. Now if that doesn’t fix it either try turning off low speed braking (3rd icon in the list) and see if that works. Thanks again for the compliment and thanks for watching’

[@SandiEdelson]

@@TwoGuysandaRide I appreciate the explanation but it raised another question - Why do I think I do NOT have the rear traffic alert feature on my car? (It's an EX-L without BSI). Is that possible??

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

@@SandiEdelson thanks for the question. Here are the standard Honda sensing safety features that all 2023 Honda cr-v’s have: Collision Mitigation Braking System Road Departure Mitigation System Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow Lane Keeping Assist System Traffic Sign Recognition System Forward Collision Warning Lane Departure Warning Traffic Jam Assist Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor Auto High-Beam Headlights Low-Speed Braking Control Multi-Angle Rearview Camera with Dynamic Guidelines So since these are standard across all cr-v trims you should have Blind Spot warning and rear cross traffic. My thought is, was there a chip shortage when your vehicle was made, and perhaps that chip was not put on, but the dealership should have told you that in the first place. Or there is something not right with your Honda sensing system?

[@SandiEdelson]

@@TwoGuysandaRide Hi. When I bought my car, it was still being built at the factory so I ordered it in advance, opting for no BSI since it tacked on another chunk of money I didn't want to spend. Maybe shame on me but I didn't think that by making that choice, I would also be forfeiting the cross traffic monitor. Are they typically both on the same chip? Should the front/rear parking sensors also be standard on the EX-L?? I'm not sure I have those either! How can I tell? Which setting should I be looking for to verify?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

@@SandiEdelson thanks for the question. Only Honda would be able to tell you if those functions were both on the same chip , I would ask your dealership to find out. As far as front and rear parking sensors, you can verify those just by looking at your front and rear bumpers. If you have them, you’ll see little circles that are inset in the bumpers and front grill.

[@scottish785]

26:22 into the video what is LOCKOUT PROTECTION shown at the bottom of the menu what does that feature do??

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. That is just in case you lock the car with the key fob still inside the car. If this happens “lockout protection” will honk the horn, flash some of the lights, and unlock the doors for you so can get in and retrieve the keys. Note: you’ll have 15 seconds to open a door, after that it re-lock all the doors. What you see on the screen is where you can click to adjust lockout protection settings. Thanks for watching!

Is anyone else having issues with a beeping noise in there crv. It’s a nonstop beeping noise and it only goes off when the truck is off 😩

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. There are multiple reasons why this may be happening: broken seatbelt sensor, heavy object (dog, grocery bag etc) in a seat and the car thinks it’s a person so beeps to warn you no seatbelt is fastened in that seat, you may have a broken sensor (check front and rear bumpers), you have an accessory plugged into the 12 volt outlet that is not compatible with the vehicle, lane departure or road departure warning ( you could turn those off in drivers cluster), your seat memory was set but now something is stuck like a mirror and since it can’t adjust it properly it needs to tell you that seat memory function can be turned off, well that should give you a few things to check.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. The AWD 1.5 L engine version of the CR-V shows 27mpg for city driving and 32 for the highway with a combined mpg of 29, which is lower mpg than the 2 wheel drive versions or the hybrid engines. That being said, it does depend on how you drive, how hard you accelerate, how hilly the area is etc…These numbers they put out are sort of like, the best possible scenario, not always real world driving. But that is pretty far from their numbers so, here are a few ideas to try out and see if they improve your mpg a little 1. Accelerate gently, 2, don’t let the vehicle idle for extended periods, 3, try finding a fairly flat highway or city road and try checking your mpg there. If none of that changes anything I would talk to my Honda dealer and see if they have any other ideas. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

@@TwoGuysandaRide Thanks! I failed to mentioned that my car is 2 wheel drive :) I appreciate your advice!

On the 2023 Honda CR-V EX-L, how and where do you pair your garage door opener?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. The 3 home link buttons should be either under your rear view mirror or by the dome lights in the front. Depending on your actual garage door motor, there are two ways. 1. For an older garage door motor, press the home link button you wish to program and a small light should show up in orange, then press the garage door remote button and hold it down (be careful as your garage door will open and or close during this) until the orange light turns solid green. Now the button should be programmed. With a newer model garage door motor, press the home link button you wish to program then press the “learn “ button on the garage door motor (usually it’s a small red square at the back of the motor). Now you have about 30 seconds to a minute to get back in the car and press and hold the home link button until you see the light turn a solid green. Now it should be programmed. Again be aware the garage door may open and close as you’re doing this. Thanks for watching!

Hi I have android pH how do I connect map please

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. Go to your Bluetooth settings on your phone, make sure Bluetooth is enabled. Then on your infotainment screen click on the phone icon, and click add a device, then just follow the onscreen directions both on your infotainment screen and your phone. Important, you will eventually get to a screen that will ask you to enable or disable Android Auto, click enable. Then Android Auto will come up on your infotainment screen. From there you can just press whichever icon that you use for navigation and put your phone away. You can now access your phone through the car’s infotainment screen ant time by pressing the Android Auto icon. Thanks for watching!

[@hopelessromantic9156]

Why doesn't my maps open up when I tell it to navigate me somewhere? It opens on my phone but doesn't open on Honda display. I can hear the directions but I want to see it. Please help!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. I’m not sure what kind of phone you have, but whatever it is, your voice commands are controlling the phone, not the infotainment screen. You will want to hook your phone to Apple CarPlay or Android Auto then when that’s done, you will click on the appropriate icon (Apple CarPlay or Auto) then try those voice commands again and now you will see and hear the directions from the vehicles screen. Thanks for watching!

[@hopelessromantic9156]

@Two Guys and a Ride thank you for your reply! The thing is, my phone is connected...playing music on the Honda display...it's just maps that doesn't open up. Maps isn't even an icon on the screen like it was on yours. How can I fix that? My phone is a Samsung Ultra22

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

@@hopelessromantic9156 ok, thanks for the reply. Sounds like your phone is hooked to Bluetooth only, not android auto, which is what you want, in order to see and hear your phones navigation app in the vehicles infotainment screen. So here are the steps I would take to fix this. 1. Delete your phone from the vehicle. 2. Go to your Bluetooth settings on your phone, find the vehicles name, and tell the phone to forget this connection. 3. Now your ready to re-pair your phone to the vehicle. In the infotainment system go to phone, and click add new. 4. Open your Bluetooth settings on your phone and scroll to the bottom of the list of things your phone is connected to via Bluetooth. 5. Follow the instructions on your phone and the infotainment screen to pair HOWEVER, at one point you will be asked to enable Android Auto, you want to enable this. 6. Finish pairing your phone. 7. On the infotainment screen look for the Android Auto app and click it. 8. You will see the google map icon, click on it. Now you can use your Android assistant like you were doing before to set a destination. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Congratulations on the new ride! The explanation is a bit lengthy so I will instead refer you to about page 560 of your owners manual which details the steps to deactivate your automatic parking brake for car washes. Thanks for watching!

[@mariasand6415]

@@TwoGuysandaRideit’s my first car with safety sensors so I get in to the tunnel with N but all the sensors screaming at me making lot of noise. It’s scared me.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

I’m sure it did. It can be unnerving the first couple of times. The best thing to do is to carefully read that section of the owners manual. Just a point of interest, what they instruct you to do only has to do with the automatic brake (so it doesn’t suddenly stop your car in the middle of the automated car wash) it does not say it turns off sensors. So they may go off as you go through the car wash. Another thought, if the manual is confusing, call the dealership where you bought it and talk to your salesmen and they should be able to tell you exactly how to proceed. Thanks for watching!

Great video. However, if I want to tune the FM to 87.5 I find out I cannot do it because it is not listed in the station list. Is there a way to get to 87.5 by fine tuning? I go into the number pad and it indicates that when I try to punch in those numbers, I can't because it is not part of the large preset list. Any way to bypass it and go to other stations not in the large station list?

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. Try looking under “tune mode” under settings button ( the settings button on the radio screen- its on the top right) and see if you can change how it tunes, then try punching in the station number again. Thanks for watching!

@@TwoGuysandaRide Thanks so much for your prompt reply. Unfortunately, there was no difference under the "tune" mode. I am trying to connect a portable CD player that has to be tuned to a specific radio station. A bit frustrating.

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Ok I get it. Since there is no aux port, here is a solution that might work well. Look on Amazon for a 3.5mm Bluetooth transmitter (most will transmit and receive) that will transmit. Plug the 3.5mm into your cd player , sync the Bluetooth to the car, and it should work just like Bluetoothing your phone. I use one on my tv to Bluetooth tv audio to some Bluetooth speakers works well , question will be if the car’s Bluetooth will connect with it, but it might be worth a try. Hope that helps and thanks for watching !

Hi, The tachometer option is missing from my meter setup screen. I want to turn it off for more space on the left side any suggestions? Is that option in a software update? Thanks!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Thanks for the question. hmm.. you should have that option. Try this… If you scroll down and click on Settings (in the driver information screen) then scroll down and click on meter set up, then scroll down to tachometer (it’s on the bottom of the list) and click on it. From there you should be able to scroll through an on/off or “back” option If that is missing I would think there’s a glitch in the system as the option should be there to the best of my knowledge. You could see if the dealership could re-install that software or see if there’s any updates and run them. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Hi there Nathan! Well I am finally getting used to my 2023 CRV EXL but I was wondering if you had any opinions about the wireless car charger. My Iphone has an otterbox case and the phone doesn't seem to charge consistently. I've read alot of criticism on a honda CRV users group website about the poor performance of the wireless charger. Any suggestions?? Thanks!

[@TwoGuysandaRide]

Well hello to you as well! Here are some thoughts on phone cases and wireless charging: older cases tend to not be built with wireless charging in mind, and in general either do not work at all or do work, but poorly. I had to change my phone case to one built to use wireless charging to get mine to charge. Since I have made that change, I have had no issues charging wirelessly not only in the CRV but all other cars that we review. My best suggestion is look for another case that will support wireless charging (it should say supports wireless charging in the description of the case). Now if you’re case said it supported wireless charging then you’re looking, in all likelihood, at a fault with the vehicles wireless charging system. However, I think (could be wrong) that many folks have older phone cases and wireless charging is a relatively new item, so I think in many cases if they would just get a new case (one in which the description says supports wireless charging) they would find the problem resolved. Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
