Change the ect sensor today and ran the car without any start problems. I can’t believe the Temp sensor would keep the car from running.

Update:. I found the correct jumper to read the odb codes. It was attached to the ecm cover in a blank plug and was tan in color. I got a code 6 which was a bad ect sensor. When changing the sensor to a new one I broke the sensor and had to get another. I can’t believe how little torque it takes to break the sensor. I tested the sensor before trying the installation by just connecting the connector and the car started without a problem. I will install a new sensor tomorrow and Test after the engine gets hot.

I also got a code 12 on the ABS light and will research what it means.

I am hoping my start problem is just a bad Temp sensor.

If the ckp is bad will I get a code on the ECM?. The legend does not have a distributor and I need help with locating and changing the sensor that I have read is behind the trimming belt.

Thanks. I don’t know if it is the cps or the ecm or something else and want to be certain before replacing parts.

Thanks,. But the acura legend is different. And not as easy

I disconnected the flex line from the solid line and still no real fluid movement so I bought a new mc instead of a ref. Bleeding was better but the pedal would still go down to the floor. So I test drove very cautiously with my hand on the emergency brake. The car would stop but not right away. I than pulled the two fuses for the abs and test drove again. Now I had brakes that worked but without abs. I bleed the brakes again and this time it bleed normally. After good brake bleeding I reinstalled the abs fuses and preformed two and quick stops described in your video and now I have working brakes with a solid brake

I will check the flex lines tomorrow. Could there be anything wrong with an abs seleniod

I tried to use a vacuum pump but still no fluid. I also disconnected the line from the caliper to see if fluid would move still nothing.
