Didnt Take Long - Lock/Unlock Indicator Flash not working

[Neesmo31]

Hey all, just this morning i noticed that my central locking flash (through the indicators) wasnt working and was yesterday. I would try and trace the wiring diagram but the PDF file is on my other computer which is currently getting fixed atm.

Any ideas? Do they run simple relays or would it be a BCM problem??

Thanks in advance - not a life threadtening problem but still annoying none the less.

PS will make sure all doors lock/unlock, will check all fuses this afternoon, will check to see if hazard button works and its a 2004 euro cl9.

Hey mate,

100% it's the door actuator. My 06 euro indicator flash was not working either on the lock or unlock feature. I tried all the doors and they where locking and unlocking perfectly!
I took it to Honda and they found it to be the right hand rear door actuator. They disabled the actuator and kept the rhr door locked and the indicators started working again when unlocking and locking.

Ordered and fitted a new actuator and it's now all good! Under warranty.

Very strange - But it's fixed :)

Thanks for that. Ill have a crack at it this afternoon and i will try and get some outcomes. How much did the diagnosis cost through honda??

God im over f***ing cars.

yeah its a pain in the ass, my 04 euro started doing the same thing, but my on the passenger side. --' And the cars no longer under warranty XD ......
let us know how it goes, because i still haven't got mine fixed. i just leave it locked.

Found the problem after bulk unlocking/locking. The rear right actuator motor isnt working now. If i lock the car, the rear right stays unlocked - then you open the door, lock that door manually, close the door and hit the lock button the indicators flash. So its in need of a new actuator.

The weirdest thing is that my front drivers side actuator was really slow at unlocking. Now it pops up as quick as all the other ones! Weird but fixed. Just need to get it done - lucky its still under 5000km stat warranty.

While i was mucking around with keyless stuff found the keyless window wind down function - kewl!

Thanks tknova for your direction. Still hate cars though.

Good too see you had an outcome!
Make sure you mention to the dealership that your rhf door actuator is on the way.

Had this problem with my previous CU2. One of those rubber thingies :) broke inside the hood... So, it wasnt making contact when the hood was closed. Car thought it was still opened, and hence, no flashing lights

Anyone got a DIY up for fixing the autuator yet? Cause it sounds like it a pretty common problem among the cl9's

I called up honda and they said that the proportion of cars with this problem is like 0.2%. I think their stats are completely ****ed.

haha man honda have issues, i called them up today and the guy i spoke to in parts was like its a very common problem with the euro! and as usual they want 300 to fix one door! They believe it has something to do with moisture getting into the autator! which could be possible cause it always doesn't work in the morning but sometimes in the arvo's! they definately aren't morning parts hahah
