Throttle body fuse for a Honda Santa Fe where is it located

[@theo1029]

Thank you so much! The relay was totally my problem. After I tried so many other things the fix was so simple. I'm so happy my car drives normally again. One suggestion: maybe add "limp mode" to your title or description so this video can be easily found by others.

[@a.k.466]

Simply explained and well done. Kudos George!!!

[@rositaa8855]

George, I appreciate this video so much !! I was going crazy trying to figure this out. Thanks 😊👏🏼

[@staffoffice]

Great video, I'd bet a lot of shops would say "oh, you have a bad throttle body and that will cost xxxx). This apparently is an easy fix! I don't have the problem but when I do with my Honda I'll no where to go. Thanks!!

[@thinkagainVarela]

thank you amigo i was almost getting loco! mine has 4 relays so ill be nuts for a wild!

[@jimmymcdonnell172]

OMFG!!!! 😂 You are the man!!! I can't believe that's what was causing the whole issue I've had for the last couple days I took a part, the intake manifold checked all the sensors, put a new air filter, checked the fluids, and all it was was a missing 15 fuse

[@jerryazubuike3458]

Thanks... had same problem on my 2009 Honda Accord V6, with 150k miles... I discovered it was one of the Relays under the Hood that went bad, I just replaced the Relay, and boom my Car is back to live, and rev to 5000 rpm. driving perfect.... Thanks for this video

My wife just had this problem with her 2008 Honda CRV. She crept into a gas station and I told her to tell the attendant to check the relay after watching this video. He did his diagnostic and low and behold it was the relay. $90 later and the car was driving perfect. He thought she was a genius for knowing. Thanks!

[@theroyalone7588]

How much is the Relay , and what’s the name of it?

[@bbowen1751]

Wow, that looks like an easy fix and not costing too much. Have 2009 Accord, just dropped it off at mechanic. (Was able to drive there using back roads at 35 mph max.) Most noticeable lag is acceleration from a stop (feels like driving with emergency brake on). Shared this video with him, so maybe can cut down on a lot of troubleshooting time. Thanks

Thanks for video, this video saved me $500 on buying a used 05 Honda Accord. Come to find out it was just a fuse not a relay while my wife was negotiating the deal! 👍

Where did u find that fuse i have 06 honda accord cant find it on passenger side

Thank you for the tip,,,,You have been a life saver,,,,I had the same issue with my 2004 Toyota Sienna, looked at all my fuses, BINGO! found the one that was fused.....car started increasing RPM once again!!! God Bless You Bro.!!!

[@theroyalone7588]

What fuse did you replace

[@Nperez1986]

Worked like a Charm, just did this to my 07 Honda Accord 2.4. My wife literally did the job, looked at the fuse, than the Throttle Actuator Control Module Relay, after telling her where is was located, and replaced with a known working Omron relay, back to normal :)

[@yuragears9342]

You could drive the car ? I have same problem showing vsa and check engine but it don’t allow me to choose drive gear . Can go R , neutral and parking though

[@MrThree1zero]

Thanks man. it worked for me, sort of.... lol I had pulled out that fuse before replacing my starter and had stuck it back in the wrong slot. Once i stuck it back it ran like a champ!

[@capcom201133]

Try to change the MAP sensor.

[@peterdatechmen5506]

Gotta love drive by wire systems. They hate any interference with the throttle blade actuation. Best fix is fuse, relay and TB clean. Even though check light is out check for history etc and clear. Enjoy your fixes George, you present them well.

[@funkyfreshtx]

After dropping my kids off school today I was halfway home when the Odyssey would not go above 40. Finally getting around to it tonight I found this video as the first result in my Google search. I went looking for that exact fuse and in my 2011 Odyssey van it happened to be under the hood in the big fuse box. I pulled it out and noticed that it did not look blow, reseated it and when I turned on the van I was able to rev it over 2000 rpm. So in my case the fuse wasn’t blown and I don’t think the relay was bad (not even sure how to remove a relay) but just reseating it fixed it. thanks!

Hey there, I just wanted to say thank you for making this video. I have a 2006 Honda CRV which just started doing this. I always get fleeced by my mechanic so I did a google search. Your video came up, saw the air filter fix in the comments, and did the whole thing myself. Took maybe 30 minutes. Saved me a tonne of cash and headache. If you're ever in Port Coquitlam British Columbia, let me know. I owe you a beer man.

[@fivetaps4412]

Hi Leo, Which relay/fuse on the CRV is it?

[@leosieczka3724]

Five Taps - I just unhooked the battery and replaced the air filter. The other thing that came up recently was something called the oil screen, which just needed an oil change to fix.

I switch off engine for sometime, start again and the car does well for another 10, 15 or more miles before losing power. It is important to mention here that this fault vanished by itself for about 2 years and resurfaced couple of days back. Could you have any tips please.

[@cheblack677]

The knock sensor was my problem. It accelerated up to 3500 rpm shut down the engine. When the engine decelerates to 3000 rpm, restart again repeating the cycle every 2-3 seconds. It could be the filter, broken airflow hoses or Mass Air Flow Sensor.

How about a 99 Honda Civic , at first the car was over heating replaced radiator no over heat , but car stalls or have to be at high rpm to get in to gear

[@robster-wx6ex]

I have the same model but my engine light is on, not the others, and I have the opposite issue. When on the highway my rpm gauge won't drop BELOW 2000 rpm, and my ECO light certainly won't go on. If I accelerate enough then the hand will go up as normal, but when I stop accelerating it won't go all (most) of the way back down. Is 2000 rpm normal on the highway, and the engine light for something else? Or if it IS the problem then would replacing the relay fix it? As far as I can tell it's a gauge issue and not the engine itself, as I can easily slow down at stoplights, but my engine might still be running fast if I'm not decelerating- I can't tell. Thanks!

[@edelweiss2145]

Attention: if you are having issues after this and you've checked your relays and fuses....I fixed my Honda Pilot by doing this simple, yet tedious and lucky procedure. I began to believe that there was a glitch in the system. I replaced the air intake hose and that's how all of these symptoms occurred in the video, none of my fuses or relays blew. I couldn't figure it out and absolutely nobody could help me. I knew I'd be paying a lot of money from a mechanic when it could've just needed a computer with a Honda software system. Anyways, I spent 12 hours trying to figure this out. I started the engine after disconnecting the battery for 15m. I'd recommend nothing less than 15m and every hour after that is probably better if it's feasible. Start by unplugging the sensors especially the throttle body sensor. Then ensure that nothing is leaking. Reconnect the sensors and Disconnect the air intake hose and give it a little gas. Hopefully the throttle will open up. Mine didn't. So I checked the other sensors again including the accelerator. At this point I shut the engine off and I realized 5 new codes had showed up which was the result of the tinkering. I believe what happened is the computer had corrected itself at this point while it was noticing all of the activity. Thus it reset the previous idle position and relearned this new one. The old air intake hose was cracking and actually disconnected from the throttle body. But of course there wasn't a code that popped up and i was lucky to notice it. Go figure. Dumb luck? Possibly. Remember to be very careful with the throttle body too. The butterfly is as delicate as a butterfly; do not force it. I really hope this helps or atleasts rules out one more attempt. Also if you're trying to figure out how this may have happened, well forcing the throttle body can throw the codes off. Imagine saying '5's a million times and then throw a thousand '9's in there. I don't know that's the best example but give or take at that point there's adaptivity required and when something runs at a consistent rate for a long period of time and then a drastic change occurs it could glitch.
