Hello all,
I'm looking to the knowledge of the list to maybe help me solve a problem
with my '97 Honda Accord. The check engine light came on, and when I
hooked the OBD2 scanner up, there was only one error listed, and it was
P0740, which maps out to "Torque Converter Clutch Circuit Malfunction". I
did some Google-whacking, and was too happy with the stuff I found. It
seems in most cases that when you take your car to the dealer with this
problem, the cure is a new transmission!
The Haynes manual is silent on torque converters in the Accord, I can't find
any mention of it at all. Who out there has knowledge and/or experience
with Honda transmissions? My first thought is to flush the transmission
fluid, clear the error, and see if it comes back. Any help or
recommendations are appreciated!
