2004 Odyssey shuts off when stopped

Mmhamilton 2 February 2005 16:36:06
 My wife's 2004 Honday Odyssey (6K miles) sometimes just shuts off when she
comes to a stop. No lights on the dash or anything. It only happens once
or twice per day. This started happening at around 5K miles. She also
said it happened while she was moving slowly one time which is really what
scares me. I took it to the Honda dealership and they could not get it to
replicate. They did an Idle Relearn, checked for air leaks and sensor
connections and found no problems.

I've called and scheduled another appointment with the dealer, but the
problem is getting this to happen on command. The guy wasn't too thrilled
and said he can't have a tech driving around all day. I'm just looking for
some suggestions as to what could be causing this and how I should pursue
this. Could it be a faulty ignition switch? Idle Problem? Does this fall
under Lemon laws? I bough the car in PA and it is registered in WV so I'll
have to research where this falls. Thanks for any input :)­

 Faulty ignition switch, or keys too heavy causing switch to rotate.
Both fairly common.

 No lights on dash - are any of the other things still working?? (radio,
etc).
If the radio quits as well, it is probably power (ie from the battery)
related. It could be that you have a bad connection on the battery and
can be easily checked. Of course, if could also be beyond that point,
where it is going to the fusebox and is distributed through out the
car.

Many things could cause things like this -- I am frankly appalled by
the attitude of your dealer.

Sorry, I may have confused you. None of the indicator lights come on.
Everything else works fine. The car starts right up after it happens.

Thanks to all for the suggestions :)­

 As was mentioned make sure you don't have anything heavy hanging in the key.
Several threads at www.odyclub.com forum on the subject. Do a search there.
