After 2 years with my Estate time to say goodbye,getting expensive to keep it going plus I do not need an estate now (no dogs) so a big thank you to this forum and the mountain o help it provides.

Yes my maths agree with yours, it makes sense that at that discharge rate the battery cannot hold up long. Thought about the switch myself but with no power connected the memory would probably be lost so every time time I wanted to make a phone call I would have to set it up. Sad but I will...

Finally was able to do the test as you described, and the results were not very different than the results I had with the Alarm not set and the bonnet open. The discharge current was approx 240mA, so disconnected the HFT Module and like you the discharge current reduced to about 23/24 mA so...

freddofrog, Understand exactly what you mean, I checked the current in series with the battery but the alarm was not set and the bonnet was open. So will try to get that done tomorrow all being well and will let you the if the reading is substantially different. Again put the car battery on...

Fitted a new battery beginning of May and it was fine. The beginning of this week I left the car for a couple of days without use and as you suggested might happen, the battery drained. I have tried charging the battery with my mains battery charger, it sort of charges but not quite .ie. after 7...

Well checked the car battery and little low but still starting the engine OK, so started on removing the siren module, by the time that was out (going off when I disconnected it, I'm sure my hearing will come back eventually) checked the car battery again and find it 9.5volts and that's...

Freddofrog, Thank you very much for the thread, the alarm has stopped now and been quiet for a couple of hours thankfully, so tomorrow I will check the car battery, if that's OK I will disconnect the Alarm Module as per the thread and check the batteries in that, I'm less concerned with the...

Have a 2007 i-ctdi 2.2 diesel, the alarm has just gone of in the drive. Found the alarm sounds for so long then stops and then sounds again. If I open the drivers door in a period of quite the alarm will go of every time I can open a passengers door in this time and it won't sound, tried both my...

Had another Email from the Americans this part won't fit the Acura TSX so that's it. Just found a new one on ebay cheaper than Honda dealer but still to my mind expensive for what it is. Will ring up local hospital see what the going rate for Kidneys sales are. :)

Just heard back from the American sellers they reckon it won't fit because it is designed for the US Model Honda Accord I think I'll play safe and not bother. Back to ebay.

F6HAD Thanks for your input, I've Emailed the people in the states with the vehicle particulars ( VIN, engine, etc) so awaiting a reply to see if this is a direct placement for the APPS .Hopefully it is so saving £140 over the Honda price ***uming it works OK. There was a couple on ebay second...

Have the same problem with my 2007 iCTD, error codes pointing to APPS, I have been quoted £220 by the Local Honda dealer for a replacement Sensor!!. Have seen some replacements from the States at a little more than a third of this price OK I understand they won't be Honda parts but has anybody...
