2000 Accord stalls while driving

Anony 16 February 2005 23:54:52
 Hi,

I'm the original owner of a 2000 Honda Accord EX, 4 cylinder, manual
transmission, 99K miles, no accidents.

My car has stalled while driving it about 10 times over the 5 years I've
owned it. It usually happens at speeds < 40mph, and when it occurs, all of
my dashboard lights come on and I lose power steering... and of course, the
engine stalls.

Up until now I've ignored it but since my warranty is up, I took it in for
diagnostics and they found nothing wrong. I came across this recall from
Honda, but they say my VIN is not attached to it:

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Brian

 Your problem could be caused by a bad ignition switch, among other
things so the recall _may_ fix your problem.

It suggests that 'certain' cars will be eligible for this recall --
that is based on their vin number, then?

Perhaps try another dealer -- call them and see what they say. Maybe
this dealer doesn't want to bother with it.

If you get the Honda dealer to swap out the ignition switch, haggle them
down to HALF the labor time, since ALL honda techs can do that job
blind-folded with one hand tied behind their back. They were probably
changing several per day during the peak of the recall. . .

If all the dash lights come on, its probably not the ignition switch. When
they cause a stall, usually the dash goes dark (at least that's what it did
on mine).

 Well, that entirely depends on what contact goes bad:
if the common goes bad, absolutely nothing will work. If the 'start'
connection goes bad, most other things will work except the connection
to the starter, etc.
