'92 Accord TCU
My auto transmission was randomly stuck on third, a classic TCU failure
symptom! I decided to open up the TCU and play with it before purchasing a replacement unit. I as inspect the board, I found two adjacent transistor (220uF) and resitor (10K Ohm) burned. Went to Radio Shack, purchased the two items for a grand total of $2.29, replaced, and the problem is fixed! Hope this post helps someone with the same TCU problem. |

I've re-built several of these for people. it is cheap and easy and resitor (10K Ohm) burned.
