    help emergency break light

    You dont have to replace the brake fluid cap, I will say that 99.9% of the time the cap is at fault, theres a little white float on the cap that gets sticky and will settle at the bottom, thus the brake indicator light comes on.

    Anyone can answer this questions?

    your auto doesnt have syncros, check to see if it is a remanufactured trans, if you had just bought it, maybe the person before had a trans put in for warranty, honda extended the warranty on autos for 109,000 miles, maybe they had one put in. Sometimes the remanufactured trans. will have a...
