okie this is how it is as of right now
1. i told u about my tach jumping well i was driving down the street and it jumped a few timez then my car died out. i started it and it did drove a few block and it did it again so i pulled into a parking place and sat there for five min. i start the car and i didnt want to start. i start again it started then right away it died out.
i start the car and it didnt crank up so im like hmmm i told my alarm was on so i press it but it "locked" the doorz im like wtf? so i unlock the doors useing the alarmz and i start the car and it didnt want to start. I then took out the alarm fuse to disconnect the alarm and BAM!! car start no problem at all! i made it to my mechanic and he checked everything was okie. And guess what? my tach have not jumped ever since. I think my alarm was the thing that was causeing my tach prob. what do you think?
It could also be a weak battery. I've seen some alarms that actually drain the battery slowly. If not a weak battery, a loose or bad battery cable (positive and negative).
2.i wake up to warm up car itz abouut 630 in the morning i start it up and everything is kewl i go inside to get dress and come back out the car has died out.
3. itz about 12 a.m after watching a movie i start the car and BAM it dies out. So im thinking its those cold start? it took me 20 min to warm up car and to get it up and running
4. i did a diagnostic and they said my starter was bad and i got it replaced and they said fuel filter was clog and i fixed it
5. about 2 weekz ago error code 15 comez into my ecu so i resetted car and it dissapear
what is going on where i have no idea. well i know the tach MIGHT be fixed it havent been acting up ever since i took out the fuse. NOW another prob.
why doesnt my car want to start anymore with my new starter? i think because it is cold but how can i fix this?
thankz for sticking by my side and helping me with my prob meanz alot to me
You could also have a bad Main Relay. While it should not cause the tach needle to dance, it can cause the problems that you have listed above. I have a tech article on how to test and replace the Main Relay:

I suggest that you visit HA Sport (http://www.hasport.com) as they have a complete "shopping list" online as well as other good information. I also highly recommend that you check out the Honda Hybrid Garage (http://tech.hybridgarage.com/).
