Ouch! Sorry to hear. Sounds like the battery was totally drained from leaving it on.

 

Must be the battery.

 

On my car when the battery dies and you jump it, all the lights come on and stay on until you drive around for a bit. Like the system needs to "reset" or something. Try a short drive around the neighborhood and see if it solves the lights.

 

Hi, having problems with my HRV . . . we changed the battery and all the warning light like check brakes, check power steering, check hill assist started to light. want to try your suggestion but my car is parked front facing the wall. if I try to move the car on reverse it's like something is stuck and won't move in reverse. m scared to force it for I might break something. how then can I remove all those signs on my panel. I think my ECU got reset or something *=(

 

Hey guys! Thanks for the ideas! I did as you guys suggested and went on a 10 mile drive. One by one the lights eventually went out except for the power steering light. I then went home and powered everything off. On the next start I have no warning lights!

I guess you are right - some type of reset was needed. I have never had this before but I am glad I know now I guess. I am happy that I had purchased a mini battery jumper that is the size of the palm of my hand. It easily jumped it from 100% dead and fits nicely in the spare tire area.

 

What brand and model number of mini battery jumper did you get? I am thinking of getting one just in case battery dies also.

 

I got this from Amazon -

I can verify that it will jump the car given the issues I had yesterday..haha

 

Thanks. I may order one.

 

I agree with HRVOH on the portable power pack......can be a huge life saver.

I purchased an XP-10......mainly for my motorcycle but I can also use it on the cars when needed.

More expensive than some other models but this thing is unreal......I pulled the cables off my RAV4 to test it and it fired up the vehicle over and over again.
Such a powerhouse for a small device. 600 Amp capability! I would of never believed it until I tried it myself on how well it works.

Also doubles as a USB charger for all portables.

 

Just placed my order on Amazon for one of these. Thanks for recommending them.

 

Very cool... didn't know these things existed. Gotta get me one.

 

Yea I want one too! Thats a great emergency device that would go well with my portable air compressor, another thing which I've used way more than I thought I would!

 

Last night my wife and I went out to learn the EX-L navi system and voice commands (yes, we are geeks). I guess that we left the car in Auxiliary too long as this morning the car wouldn't start!

Anyway, I gave the car a jump and it started but now I have the ABS, TPMS, Power Steering, Traction Control, and several brake system lights on.

Anyone have any idea what is going on? I assume I will have to to call a dealer tomorrow. This is really annoying - I am not too upset about the dead battery (personally think they should cut you off before it gets too low) but why should I have all of these problems post jump?

Thanks!

I was sitting in the car for less than thirty minutes yesterday. I had the auxiliary feature on so I could listen to the radio. Eventually the radio cut off and it was weird, but I started the car and all was well. Later (several hours) I started the car and all those lights came on, just as you listed. Drove around and they eventually all went off but one, which went off the next time the car was turned off and turned back on. Very weird. Went and had the battery tested and codes read (there were none and battery was fine). I'm hoping it doesn't happen again.

Crazy that you only had it on for 30 minutes to cause all of that. I haven't done this in the HRV, but on my previous cars, I would have the stereo on while detailing the car after a car wash. I've gone an hour plus before and no issues. Again, that is on older Honda's and a VW.

 

I don't understand how the Aux being on drained the battery. I have the Ex with the push button start and when you push it once it puts it in the Aux mode. It will automatically turn off in exactly one hour. Did you push it twice and have all the dash lights on? That would be like the on mode in the old key systems not the Aux setting. The horn will beep rapidly a few times if you walk away with it on.

Does anyone know what "left the car in auxiliary" means?

 

It's the mode where the car isn't on, but you can still listen to the radio, etc

With a key car, it'd be the first click position.

 

Try the alternator.

Just had similar with a Civic, Had all sorts of warning lights on for EPS, ABS, SRS etc.

Fitted new alternator, instantly all faults cleared and everything has been fine for a couple of months now.

A reputable garage or parts store would be able to test it for you or there are vids on youtube to show you how to test it yourself with a multimeter (only a few £ or $ to buy one)

Two 'mechanics' told me it was an ABS wheel sensor fault..... nope!

 

Dash Blinking

Just went to go turn on my 2016 HRV and all of a sudden everything on the dash just started blinking and then everything shut off.

My dad came over to jump start the car and luckily the car started. There are some icons on the dash that won’t go away and I cannot get the parking break light to go away. (Yes I put on my seat belt to try to turn it off)

I have attached a photo of the icons left on the dash.

Does anyone have any ideas what is going on? I already have an appointment with Honda on Monday for an oil change and inspection sticker.

 

It certainly needs to go in but in the meantime try this. Pull off the negative cable on the battery under the hood, wait 20 minutes and reconnect. See if that resets the car.

 

This just happened to me about an hour ago and I was able to get it on video. My dad was able to jump my car so it is now turning on.

Did you end up talking to Honda? I already have an appointment on Monday for an oil change/inspection sticker.

Did you feel like the drive after the “meltdown” was safe? I’m not sure how I feel driving it around alone as my husband is currently working.

 

It might be a low battery or alternator. I've read about other HR-V's with similar problems and it turned out to be one of those 2 things.

 

Low battery, Honda replaced mine free of charge due to it being faulty.

 

All warning lights are on

Driving home last night and all the warning lights suddenly came on in my Honda HRV 2016. Got home ok. Tried my car again today and it starts no problem but all the warning lights are on still. I am worried to drive it to my nearest garage which is 30 Minutes away in case the car breaks down. The car seems to work ok but no idea if it will suddenly die on me or why all the warning lights are on. Any ideas?

 

Attached is link that should help. An auto parts store should be able to test battery/alternator for you. Good luck.

What was the issue? I have the same issue

 

Having the same issue with mine. Unfortunately I’m away because of the military and my wife is dealing with it. Any one else had this problem?

 

I got it fixed it was the system it needed a reset they couldn't figure out the problem at the dealership so they just rest it.

 

Battery I think.
