 Why is there no power in my car's Acura TSX power outlets? |
 |
I just bought a used 2005 Acura TSX one weeks ago. there is no manual came with it. My sales promised me to order it and mail it to me. Today I just found one problem: there is no power in the two power outlets while I drived my car and used my car charger for my cell phone. Can someone help me or am I supposed to send the car back to the dealer?

Have the dealer check the fuse panel. you may be able to do it if you want. it's mostlikly under the dash driver side. The panel should have a diagrame telling what fuse is for what, but since you just bought it why not have the dealer give you some service. you made them lots of money

Check your fuse pannel. Your power outlets have a fuse. If the fuse is blown out. Most fuse pannel's are on the driver side, above where your feet are, or on the left side of your dash. I'm a diesel mechanic, but we don't get to many cars. that is what we check 1st for a loss of power.

I say bring it back to acura and make them take car of it. If not call acura roadside help and you may be able to ask them they could tell you which fuse it's and how to fix it and what it may be.
But simply bring it to acura and get them to fix it under warrenty.

This is a warranty issue. Acura will fix or instruct you free of charge. Take the cell+charger with you.

I had the same problem and it turned out to be a blown fuse.

it sounds like you got a lemon. the fuse panel is just the tip of the iceberg. if the fuse for your twelve volt chargers is blown, the fuel management system may be compromised also. your timing may be off causing more engine knock and poorer gas mileage. if you don't fix this problem soon, you could blow your engine, and because your transmission to fall out of the bottom of your car. watch out.
