  1. Battery, Starter, Alternator & Related Issues
    I'm having an issue where my CR-V fails to start. It doesn't crank endlessly. Seems it will crank for about 2 seconds and then the starter and engine stop turning. Some history: About 18 months ago I got a new battery with a 3 year warranty. After the car failed to start several times during a...

    I’m thinking of replacing my ‘17 CRV. I suffered through parasitic battery issue now have no heat or defroster in the mountains of Maine. Nearest dealership can’t get me in for several weeks. In desperation I ordered thermostat from NAPA in hopes I can find someone to install it. Car only has...
  3. Gen 1 CR-V: 1996-2001 (UK 1995-2001)
    Hello all! I just got this CR-V 2 weeks ago - everything has been perfect, but on Christmas day, I pulled out of my inlaws driveway, went up the road, and stalled out - then the car wouldn't crank. towed it back to my inlaw's yard and now I'm pulling my hair trying to figure out the issue, so I...

    Hello, my parents’ 2015 randomly quit starting. Dash lights do not come on and pressing the start button does nothing. battery is less than 6mo old and fuses look ok. Battery terminals are clean. Is there some relay I should check? Any other suggestions?
  5. Battery, Starter, Alternator & Related Issues
    Greetings. I'm suffering from the notorious battery drain issue. I have traced the (everything off) 0.55 amp battery drain issue on my 2013 AWD Touring CRV to the 10 amp #29 fuse of the engine compartment fuse box. When this fuse is removed the drain drops from 0.55 amps to 0.07 amps. Have...
  6. Gen 3 CR-V: 2007-2011 (UK 2007-2012)
    Left my light on like an idiot. I'm locked out and my mechanical key doesn't work, it hasn't worked in years. How do I get into the car to pop the hood to charge the battery? Can I pop the hood from outside the car?
  7. Gen 5 CR-V: 2017-2022 (UK 2018-2023)
    2020 CRV. Started fine the first time this morning, but every warning came on immediately - parking break, power steering, brake assist, stability, etc...you name it. Tried restarting it, took a while to turn over this time and then same thing with the warning lights. Drove a very short...
  8. Gen 4 CR-V: 2012-2016 (UK 2012-2018)
    We have a 2016 Crv Touring with about 90,000. How had the brilliant idea of jamming so much stuff under the hood that there was no room for a normal sized battery? The tiny battery that is supposed to fit the car is so small that I go through them like (insert analogy here). Luckily, the...

    '98 CRV. Replaced the battery last weekend. Radio is dead, no power. Replaced radio fuse (under dash). Radio still dead. Tried everything I could find online about holding the on button, releasing the on button, holding the on button for 60 seconds while doing the hokey pokey. Nothing. My local...
  10. Gen 5 CR-V: 2017-2022 (UK 2018-2023)
    I found out that checking fluids under the hood does not cover the battery. Just had my motor and transmission oil changed. Thought I would look under the hood to see how things looked. While there I decided to pull the battery caps and to my surprise the water level was below the plates. I...
  11. Gen 2 CR-V: 2002-2006 (UK 2002-2007)
    Hey everyone! New to owning a CRV here and hopefully someone else has encountered this problem as well. Sometimes, I’ll turn the key and will have no power whatsoever. However, after a few minutes go by, the car will turn on perfectly fine. This has happened on at least three occasions. The...

    Hello. I have a 2008 Crv and yesterday everything was working fine but when i started it today the battery indicator was on and the alternator is not charging at all. When the battery is idle it has 12.5v and when the car is on its 11.5v. I measured the voltage on all the terminals, the...
  13. Battery, Starter, Alternator & Related Issues
    I recently bought a 2017 CR-V. Though I haven't had any problems with it, I'm trying to be proactive about possible battery issues. From what I've read, if it still have the OEM battery, I should replace it ASAP with a better battery. So, how can I tell whether my battery is the original...
  14. Gen 5 CR-V: 2017-2022 (UK 2018-2023)
    Hello, I may need to leave my '22 CRV parked/stored for about 4 weeks while I'm away. (Will not have an option for someone to start it etc., so straight up parked) (I plan to change engine oil about a month before hand, due for 1st oil change, so it will have fresh engine oil while it sits) Do...

    my battery dash light is flashing intermittently. i replaced the battery 2 days ago and had the alternator and battery tested today, both came out good. interestingly, the battery dash light does not come on at all when the headlights are on.
  16. Gen 4 CR-V: 2012-2016 (UK 2012-2018)
    I’m not sure when the last time the battery was changed and am not inclined to get stuck somewhere with a dead battery. Any recommendations on brand of car battery? Or is there a device that I can use to accurately test the life of a battery?

    Once upon a time, about three weeks ago... The story starts with your humble government employee being informed that she has to report to the office once a week since the Covid levels in our county had dropped below High. Dallas had been dry as a bone for months but just that night we had rain...
