Honda Accord engine misfire and ignition coil diagnose.

[@sandyschroder1447]

You literally saved my car! I had replaced all 6 spark plugs and still had four misfires. I was about to sell it way below the price i had bought it for due to the misfires. Turns out, one bad ignition coil caused all 4 misfires. 75$ for the ignition coil and 5 min of labor saved me a loooooot of money and stress. THANK YOU

[@brandykinney5885]

You just helped me fix what 5 different mechanics couldn't figure out! Thanks!

[@Rodneydncn]

Information Era!! Gotta love it

[@cuzithagreat975]

Sounds like they were shit mechanics😏🤙

[@all5chapters1john]

I believe the Lord led me to your video tutorial. It was the missing piece of the puzzle that I needed. I have a working car again because of this tip. Thank you for posting!

[@christiesimpson8853]

got bf to try this treble shoot out and he discovered the exact same coil gone bad, he also pointed out that having over 450000 kms on it, and i never changed anything to do with plugs or wires ever.........Honda all the way!!!! thank you for this video guide, likely saved me alot of moooola

[@GeorgiaBoy50DEV]

Man. I swear this one of the best instructions videos for age group 7 and up. Awesome.

[@mstielau]

Thanks for doing this video Michael. It helped me diagnose a misfire problem on an Accord with a V6. Your presentation was very clear and concise. My code reader reported failures on multiple cylinders, but in reality only one coil was bad, and your video helped me find and fix it quickly and easily.

[@adillathif7183]

Bro I took my car to 5 mechanics and none of them could find the fault. After watching your video I told them to check the coils and after changing the coil voila!!!!! Thanks a ton man. Love from Dubai

[@michaeldeanda3744]

Thanks man! Just used this video to diagnose bad coil. Last time Firestone charged over $300 to diagnose and replace. Paid $45 for coil at Advanced Autoparts

[@classikz]

I had a P0301 and P0302 misfire codes on my 2000 Odyssey. I used your method and found that it was cylinder one's coil that wasn't working. I replaced the faulty coil, unplugged battery to clear CEL, and now it's running as before. Thanks for making the video!

[@ninobrown341]

Thank you!!!I fixed it in 20 mins.All new coils!!!May God Bless You.Amen

[@reidbeaty2269]

Helped a ton. Once I found the bad coil I also noticed that it made a slight vibration that the other good coils did not make. Just something else to look for for those having this problem. Ended up being a $50, 45 minute fix.

[@jrod6941]

I am glad that there is so many folks willing to spread their knowledge. I want to say thank you!!!!Thank you!!!!

[@mikeoneill7360]

You should have been a teacher, absolutely flawless presentation.....

[@royhenley2396]

Spot on!!! I had the same bunch of bullschidt error codes. Everything was fine with my 2003 Accord 3.0L V6 (214,000), until all of the sudden it wasn't. The engine would still start and run; but it was shuddering, making a little racket, the exhaust smelled of incomplete combustion, but there were no back-fires or overheating; with the check-engine light flashing. DO NOT continue driving with these conditions, as the engine is sending unburned fuel into your Catalytic Converter and will eventually plug (or foul) it, resulting in a very costly repair bill. Looking at the error codes, MANY repair shop people put me on wild-goose chases; probably because it would mean more $$$ in their pockets. Honda really dropped the ball here, spitting out a lot of errant error-codes like random mis-fires, instead of narrowing it down to the only cylinder that was actually mis-firing, which is exactly what it was. Thanks Mike, your video is explicit and concise. A $43 part held by one 6mm Allen screw, that can be swapped out in ten minutes by a grandma, even on the back side of the engine when it's still hot. So I'm going to carry a spare coil in my trunk, in case this happens again on the highway. Dude, you saved me SO much time and money!!! At least a day without the car, and $300 (or more) in shop repairs. The only hard part of this repair was finding the right video.

[@thomasclayton3284]

Computer at the auto parts place said EGR valve was the reason for cylinder misfires. Changed that and only slight improvement. Came across this video and it was exactly it! identified ignition coil not firing as per instructions here, replaced ignition coil and back to normal!

[@cdnpont]

Thanks so much for this Mike. Originally booked my 03 EXV6 in to the shop to have it checked out, then started poking around on KZbin. Found your video. Cancelled the shop. Funny, I found the bad coil on the first unplug! Front left coil. $80 CDN and all is well. Cheers and thanks, Mark from Canada.

[@dsalaz04]

This guy is a freakin genius. I’m 4 hours away from home with a flashing check engine light and buddy saved my life. Thanks!

[@terrysutton1498]

2003 accord v6 - test tool says all cylinder misfiring, misleads you in wrong direction Your video was perfect and your info was right ont. My son fixed it on the phone with me and probably saved $400. cost was $45 for coil. EXCELLENT, THANK YOU !

[@51mgs]

Thanks - I brought it to a local garage today - they explained the same exact process to me that was presented in the video. I could have save some bucks and time if I had thought to research this video.

[@thehectonator9677]

Good video! It was simple shirt to the point and very easy to understand which helps people like me who aren't very mechanically inclined.

[@TimKGrimes]

Great demo. Simple. Clear. Logical. Well done.

[@danbacci]

Thanks Michael, shop quote my girlfriend 700 for repairs and said 4 coils were out. I tested with your method and found 1 coil was bad so it ended up costing 50-60 after I changed one coil and a few spark plugs. As you wrote my symptoms were: *Rough idle / engine shakes as it runs *lack of power *flashing check engine light Thanks again!

[@taurus2001dohc]

holy crap...exactly my code reading...exactly the car im working on...thanks for posting this and sharing your logical methodology

[@nmnmnnmm]

Thanks for posting this got the blinking light yesterday, and the engine sounds rough, hopefully this test will help. 2000 Accord V6

[@JohnPruess]

This video leads me to another successful 2005 Honda Pilot repair. Thank you!

[@Rodneydncn]

I just want to thank you for this video. The problem I was having was absolutely identical to the vehicle in this video, it was even the same coil misfiring lol. When I swapped out the position of the coils though the coil suddenly worked. Gonna drive it for a while and see if the coil goes bad or if I just had a loose/bad connection. Thanks again man!!! You're a life saver!!!

[@deeboy4378]

You guys with your KZbin channels helping people with this stuff are Lifesavers thank you!

[@fiscaljackhammer55]

Thanks a bunch Michael! I was trying to figure out a solution to that problem for a while and your video saved me from taking it into the shop.

[@Martin1962]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THE VIDEO!! I have a 2000 Honda Accord EX V6; For me the car flagged P0300 Random/Multiple cylinder Misfire, P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire detected, and P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire; After doing the test you show on the video, only one ignition coil was actually bad. I replaced it and all is fine now. THANKS AGAIN.

[@cammedcamaro19]

Martin Washere good to hear that, I will do the same to my 03 accord 3.0 hopefully I fix my miss fire aswell.

[@saywhat5696]

I hâve a misfire 3 and 4 also 2000 accord ex coupe Did replacing ignition coil work out ?

[@sonicd23]

Thank you so much for this video. I was finally able to solve this issue on my car. Now time to get it smogged and pay my registration! Thanks again!!

[@spyderlyf3]

you rock!! this worked out great for my son's 04 Accord V6.. no more flashing check engine after replacing back coil pack.

[@nizoume]

Thank you very much for this video..........my friends drive 1999 honda accord lx ......misfire code p0300 and up.....we watch your video.we did learn how to perform the test......we did it and the number 1 spurk wire was misfire .....we change it ..and the car is running like a charm.....thank you for the video ...you did save us a lot off time...headache...and money...

[@Lavic2009]

Thanks so much, fixed my Accord in 15 minutes with your video. Just one bad coil.

[@Speezy206]

Thanks Michael for this video! Exactly what my problem was and fixed it without having to throw money at it.

[@gafurrzogaj1426]

Lol wish I saw this video earlier before taking of my valve covers and spark plugs I also had misfire codes for multiple cylinders so I figured there might be oil in the plugs so I'm going to replace the plugs the gaskets and now apparently the coils lol 😆 thanks for the video very useful 👍👍

[@freedompioneer4311]

Did that end up solving the issue

[@Boot_14]

had a problem with my car similar to the video did exactly what the man in the video did I mean exactly and found out my spark plug was bad changed it And car is good now great video

[@javierturkieltaub4143]

Thank you, Mike. You led me straight to the problem, saving me both time and money. Excellent job.

[@mariagerlofs5637]

Thank you! You saved me $680 you are Awesome!!! It was truly easy!

[@Hothead65]

Thanks for posting this video Mike, you bailed me out. My 2000 Accord runs better than ever.

[@tridao3300]

Thanks a lot for your help. I just able to fixing my car today by changing a bad ignition coil

[@rudymunoz901]

I just did it. THANKS! Luckily I had some Chinese knock-off coils that I bought a while back just to get me out of a jam because I know this is common on todays vehicles. Last time I had to pay a mechanic, to find out the problem on my wife Honda mini van, but not today🙂 on my Accord v6. Thank you

[@SIN-sy6qc]

I just want to say thank you, your video helped me with this very problem.

[@v.pineda4258]

Great!!!!! It worked on my 2003 Honda Civic. I just wanted to find out if I had any bad coils, but they're all good. Thanks a lot😊

[@lenawall5256]

This was so helpful! Thank you! It was exactly the same coil that I needed to replace. You saved me a trip to the mechanic! Tysm! 🙂

[@rhdtv2002]

This may be old but instructions are solid. I found mine being number 3 after swapping. I’ll go buy one and replace it. Super easy fix - I hope. Lol

[@samuellivingston4393]

Mike you need to be in Atlanta, you the best I have fix & follow you along time you know you stuff I Learn a lot about my car personal and saved a lot on money Thank you

[@ReubenAStern]

yes mate, just swap it for a good one!! Best test so far. Cuts out a lot of bullshit and questionable practices.

[@JoshuaGagle]

fixed my misfire in 10 minutes, thanks!

[@mycacden]

thanks alot man, saved me alot of money!

[@philipy88]

thanks Mike.I have the same car. It's killed my problem.Very good method to check the coil.

[@pointmillion]

Hello Mike..thanks for your video. I have a 06 v6 accord and all the cylinders are misfiring and my check engine light blinks..just like in the video, but the more problem is that it also have a rich mixture (excess gas consumption) . How do I fix it please, I took it dealership and they charged me almost $750 n it's still misfiring. Please I need a clue. Thanks.

[@ProjectLexVideos]

The excess gas consumption might be caused by a bad catalytic converter. If you continue to drive while your car is misfiring the catalytic converter will melt down. It's important though to solve the misfiring problem before replacing the catalytic converter or else it will happen again.

[@BesideTheBrave]

thanks a ton man, saved a young man a lot of trouble!

[@upurs323]

good video.. i have a po300 and po301 cyl 1 misfire. Car was under warranty so they replaced spark plugs and moved coil #1 to #2.

[@coralridge1]

You sre a blessing...a terrific teacher!

[@newt9095]

This doesn’t damage the engine while it’s running?

[@Brees2390]

Great Video! Step by step and very thorough.

[@ZooNkauj83]

With your video it helped and problem fixed. U r the man, thank you so much.

[@tcowan33]

This video was so helpful! Thank you!

[@gochstree14]

I own a 2006 exl Accord and have the same issue currently. Thanks for the insight.

[@jonforbis888]

Thanks. Let's hope my mechanic discovers the same thing you showed us. Good vid

[@hawjsta]

You're a life saver, thank you.

[@michaelmeyer5229]

I have the same model and year car. I did what u did in the video and all my ignition coil made a change when I unplugged them. What do I do now? I just changed all 6 spark plugs.

[@vlado4]

Awesome video. Followed the instructions and it worked in 10 minutes. Thanks so much!

[@MarkBradfield]

Awesome video and explanation! Just saved me over $550.

[@kevinjohnstone2911]

Mechanics stay robbing niggaa

[@guitardiva2]

Really helpful to know the recheck procedure - have not seen this in other videos

[@TrendyCentral]

When I disconnect 4,5,6 on the front I get no changes on all three. I changed plugs and coils and still. What could be the problem???

[@michelledeleon3788]

my 97 accord injector #1no pulse andv#3 injector stays on floods cylinder with fuel. any idea wat it is?

[@lowflynn1789]

I had the same codes and same cylinder was bad thank you sir!

[@spicyneuron]

Agree, easy to understand. I followed procedures to cure my issue. Thanks!

[@highgroundcomics2525]

Thanks! Worked Exactly like you said! Car is running smoothly! Money Saved! $$$$

[@dlrdanny]

Great info and good test. Thank you, I will try in the morning.

[@7286412]

Your welcome, let me know how it goes.

[@BadWolf507]

I have a 1998 honda accord mine only have spark plug wires it doesn't have those special conection how do i test them out???

[@7286412]

Hi Steven, The symtoms I was having while the coil was bad are rough idle, lack of power, flashing check engine light and felt like it had a misfire. Your symtoms seem to be caused by a different issue. Does your car have any trouble codes? what color is the smoke? A possiblity of bad timing or bad valves. Its hard to say. Can you make a video response of the car running demostrating the problem? Maybe somebody or I might be able to help. Good Luck!

[@daveDevoe07]

relly awesome vid and advice Mike! Thanks so much! Definitely subscribed!

[@gsanchiii]

Thanks for posting the video I did exactly what said and was able to fix my engine misfire

[@ChadTorgerson]

This video solved my problem. A huge thank you!

[@txtommy713]

Great video thank you for sharing Michael.

[@autorepair3861]

Great video. it helped me solve my wife's accord problem thanks Jeff

[@freedompioneer4311]

Wait...if NEITHER ONE OF THE CYLINDERS MAKES A DIFFERENT NOISE ITS NOT THE COIL PACK WHAT ELSE IS THERE THE SPARK PLUG CORRECT? I GOT A MAF SENSOR CODE BUT NOW MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF BUT STILL CAN FEEL HUGE MISFIRE CLEANED MAF SENSER AIR FILTER 08 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6 SEDAN

[@nathanburnette3307]

I've experienced this exact problem. My car was idling rough, the check engine light flashed exactly as in the video, and the code checker showed the same codes. The car also gave off a strong sulfur-like odor. After replacing the coil, is it also necessary to change the oil (perhaps oil and gas getting mixed due to a bad engine coil)?

[@efendizil]

How about the rear coil packs?? Fronts are a piece of cake. My codes are #3 and #6. Can you tell me which ones they are??

[@nick82111]

Brilliant! Thank you for the great video.

[@maverickrider4591]

Thank you for mentioning the 6mm Screw head!

[@Wu-TangLAN]

Thanks for the vid Michael, before seeing your video i've been dealing with code P0303: i'vereplaced all 6 spark plugs with Bosch and tried swapping the #5 coil with the #3 coil. so i unplugged each connection one at a time and each one made the engine change (including the 3rd coil) what do you suggest i do next?

[@neashamota6643]

So is it okay to check the other ignition coils in the back the same way? I have the same codes but one of mine is P0305 instead

[@sarahendrix3132]

Yes you can test them all the same way

[@krystalbrown8585]

Thanks this had saved me lots of money!

[@guitardiva2]

How do you know that the coils in the back are not bad as well? Should you check ALL of them?

[@garytulsaelectronicsrepair4681]

Thanks a lot for such a great video!

[@baltaboy915]

Hello there Mike! I was just wondering what symptoms were occuring while the ignition coil was bad? My car is stalling, backfiring out of the throttle body, rough idling. I can't even rev the car up or there will be a loud screech and smoke will come out of the throttle body. Thanks and hope to hear from you or anybody!

[@mendozcj]

Thank you very much! You just save me a few Benjamins

[@mclarkallen]

Dude, are you still out there??? I thought I had it. I found the coil pack. Moved it and the problem stayed at the same cylinder. Could it be the spark plug? Maybe the coil pack connection?

[@schatzemanly6749]

Definitely helpful. Great troubleshooting technique

[@7286412]

Glad to help.

Good video I just did this with my 05 civic Bad ignition coil. Thanks

[@dennismullin3052]

MIke, I changed the ignition coils and plugs in 4,5,6 cylinders plus spark plugs. cleared codes and two weeks go by and I am back to P0300,300pd,304,304pd,305,305pd. This is driving me nuts!!!

[@dancindavey1515]

Dennis Mullin Check out class action suit from 2012 that was filed against Honda. There is a bigger problem that they ended up paying for from the lawsuit. Hoping they are going to continue. They knew there was a problem, and swept it under the rug. On v- 6 engines.

[@isidroesquer5219]

Hello Michael, this morning my 2010 Honda Odyssey got these codes: P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306 and P0300. The van was shaking a little bit in the morning. The check engine light didn't come on. The spark plugs were replace about 3 months ago. Any suggestions? Thank you.

[@kissmokosapwet]

Omg you are amazing!!! I been searching for this solution works like a charm thank u!!

[@rocfl59]

Bro thanks for this video, now I know what I got to do!!! Great info!!!
