In a previous video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhe6nKMzrCk I had a look at a Honda Odyssey cluster that was on the fritz. The problme is solved now once and for all thanks to the fine work from United Radio in Syracuse NY. -Enjoy!

Enjoy your videos very much Master Eric. Was laid off Mar. 23,2020 Permanently. Worked out great because I was going to retire in November.
Getting a lot of screen time because of Corona and have been watching all your stuff. You are a life saver !
Had the same problem with my 2004 Ford Focus which would also turn on the chime and map lights. Never had this with the dozen Foci's that we had as service vehicles (2000-2002) I found no cracked solder connections. Rubbed the back side of the instrument cluster down with a dry paint brush and sprayed it down the a nice clear coat of Rustoleum (NOT A SPONSER). Ford changed the cluster in 2003-2005 THE PROBLEM NEVER CAME BACK. SUSPECTED HUMIDITY. MY SON GOT $250 FOR IT A FEW MONTHS AGO (6/2021)
Curious if you tried using your autel to transfer the data over. Your previous video showed the option to transfer data from one cluster to the other.
What did you do to the old cluster?
Look at all the work this guy does fuck I would open a garage if I had $
Cut thank you remember United Radio in the event of a cluster problem
My folks bought an '84 Ford Tempo, total piece of crap even brand new. Had it a few months and when it was cold it would accelerate, wildly. If you slapped it up into neutral the engine would strive for outer space. You had to kill the ignition and then it would behave like a cheap underpowered econobox. Took it to the dealer they said we were crazy, they couldn't find a thing wrong. Got the car back. It tried to kill my mother. Back to the dealer. We're still crazy 'cause they can't find an issue. Car tries to kill my father. It goes back to the dealer. They're going to keep it overnight and make sure it's parked outside so it gets nice and cold. Car tries to kill the service manager. They had it a week before they found whatever it was that was causing it to go berserk. Only thing that car was good for was clam baking. Super small and great door seals. 😅😂🤣
Second time watching 5/26/2020
Wow! Watching you install that cluster made me think of Engineer Scotty dropping in a new electronics module on the Starship Enterprise. I wish you could have added some cool futuristic sound effects when you plugged it in.
That was awesome buddy…
So, it was a Cluster F***?
Need to collaborate with The Signal Path. That guy would tear down that old cluster, find a block diagram of the microprocessor that runs it, probe every bit of it and then replace a 50 cent capacitor or voltage regulating doohicky and make it good as new.
You said you've been doing them all week that's weird being that you said that they rarely go out. My thoughts are EMP set off in that town.
Omg !! That’s cool. Just plug in and play
Feel sick? Go to the doctor. Oh shoot, you suddenly feel a bunch better!
I used to live in the 315, never heard of united radio. It's a very small town area.
Sometimes problems come in clusters.
Thank you for the entertainment!
United Radio Does amazing Work @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Very nice of them to tra fer the cluster information to the used cluster good follow up @Eric O @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
Yep crazy times . FYI Dr. out of New York says vast majority of infections happen by hands to face. Be careful everyone.
I can't remember the last time I had a toilet paper discussion with my local NAPA parts guy!
Why do I love your videos? I haven't worked on a vehicle since my 77 F-250. Today it's all electronic bs anymore. Ask me, it's all junk. In 08 had a Ford dealership ask me if I wanted a new one. I told him I would not give him 50 bucks for anything on his lot.
I am a 315'er.
Thx for the follow up 👍, I thought the mileage was stored in the computer not in the instrument cluster,is that just Honda or all makes?
I remember replacing my 90s Corolla cluster with one that had a tach. Set the mileage with a straightened paper clip popping the numbers into place. Super easy to get the correct mileage…or forge a mileage. My first thought was 'of course they only let you set the mileage on a new one to force you to buy one', but then it occurred to me, that if the scan tool could set the mileage on a used cluster it would be way too easy to falsify mileage with a somewhat common tool.
Cool update
Stay safe Eric O
Diagnosis: major clusterfuck
Eric o. I looked into your county Avoca you got some people that got the covid.
Yeah I did see the original bit video where it went nuts we are having a cluster pandemic you know what that really is a klusterfuk
It's not terribly uncommon for these to fail
Always enjoy the follow up. Haven’t slept since I knew that original cluster was bad. Wondering what happened. But now , my friend, I will rest soundly.
Always a pleasure Eric.
Glad to see you wearing gloves
Respiratory and contact
Best to you wife and family
Be safe!
If I send her a roll of toilet paper do I got to the front of the line!🤣🤣
Even in my lifetime, auto repair has completely changed. Module compatibility issues are frustrating barriers for those of us trying to keep up.
Great video quality. Keep up the good work…
The replacement cluster will easily outlast the transmission :-P. What's the life expectancy of an Odyssey transmission 30-40K?
Yeah. The C-word. I know a C-word which describes the lying C-words. There's no killer virus coming for us. What's coming is much more sinister and evil.
Do you say "Dater" and "Naper" that way intentionally? Or is that just the way y'all talk up your way?
Why wasn't this under warranty?
Prob should censor out the phone number on the handicapped placard!
Town of bath? sounds like a nice name
Had good luck with United Radio when I worked at a Ford dealership. Only problem was when they couldn't get parts from Ford.
I hope handicap stickers don't have important info. Keep on wrenching. Does Mrs. O make you strip down before coming in the house and hose you down with sanitizer after being in nasty cars. lol
Good video! thanks
of course i will watch till the end. your the one with the knife. lol.
5-G cluster fry
The Pandemic has closed most nonessential businesses. I guess licenses is nonessential, although insurance wouldn't miss a chance to collect money.
Your videos are great entertainment for us stuck at home and bored keep the videos coming. Sometimes you bring smiles to all. If I was in charge you would all receive awards from the world because the world is watching and enjoying your videos, Thanks for your time Bill N LINY
