Hi. Many years ago I hit a deer and had to have my windshield replaced along with other repairs. When they put in my windshield, they didn't seal it correctly and it caused water to run down onto the BCM in the kick panel and ruin it. That was fixed and about 10 years later it leaked again...

Hi. My 2008 CX-9 Grand Touring came with the credit card key fob that has four buttons for lock, unlock, hatch and alert. I only have one fob and would like to get another one and program it on my own. I have done some research, and I have found conflicting information. One source says...

Thank you. I will have her do this if it happens again. She is in South Florida so it was at the high at about 89F today.

Hi. My daughter has a new 2021 CX-5 GT and called telling me her AC was not working. She is 4 hours away and has no car experience so I asked her to send me a picture of what the AC controls looked like. I attached the picture. She said she hit everything she could to try and see if she...

I am bringing my CX-9 next week to get a windshield leak repaired and BCM replaced. The Service Rep asked me if I had both key fobs as they may need two to program the BCM but he wasn't sure. I have lost one of the fobs and only have one which is the expensive Credit card looking remote. I...

Hmm. I've heard both that they do and don't work in the shaded area in various places I have looked. May just have to play it safe and put it just outside to the right of the mirror.

Hi, I just purchased a Sunpass Mini for the first time. It says to place it behind the rearview mirror on the windshield. Will it work if you place it behind the right side of the mirror over the black dotted film or does it have to be a clear section? If that doesn't work, what are other...

I can't find anything online about it having a drain or even how to remove the cowl so I'm guessing not. Going to clean it out the best I can and pour some water over it while the BCM is out to check if it leaks.

Does the cowl over the bottom of the windshield have any drain holes? I noticed that mine if full of leaves around the hole where the wipers stems come up through the cowl and around the edges. Was wondering if it sitting out in the rain maybe it was collecting, not draining and leaking around...

Sarpworks. Been there and done that. Very familiar with the sloshing noise. I've been under it twice with a shopvac and compressed air. Both times it leaked on the passenger side and ruin my fan once that I had to replace. Not hearing any sloshing this time. I'm pretty sure it's a...

I took it out (PITA!) and ran a hair dryer over it good. It has been in the garage for a week so nothing wet. It is sitting in a bag of rice now and I'll wait a few days and hook it back up and hope for the best. Still need to check if it's the windshield leaking.

I disconnect the batter for 24 hours. Reconnected and started. BCM is still showing all lights on the dash, no turn signals or door locks working so guessing it's time to take it in. I was going to replace it myself but I understand that I will have to have the dealership program it anyway.

Thanks! I will try that. Oh, I just realized that my wife's does not have sunroof. Water may have came in through a leaking windshield from other posts I have read and it had to be replaced a few years back after hitting a deer. Anyway to easily check if the windshield is leaking?

I hope this is a simple question. I had water run into the floorboard on the driver side and my BCM got wet with lights on the dash, door locks and turn signals not working, etc. I want to remove the BCM and try to dry it out. I understand I should remove the negative battery cable. If I...

Hi Guys, Got into my 2008 CX-9 this morning after it had been sitting out in the rain to move it to get my truck out. Water leaked from under the driver side onto the foot rest by the side but everything seemed fine. A few hours later my wife drives it and comes home with all sorts so dash...

Hi everyone. My 2008 CX-9 Grand Touring FWD had what I think is the Traction control light come on a few days ago. It is the car with the two squiggles under it. My wife drove it and it was on the entire day. When she got home, I went outside and cranked it up and there was no light. I ran...

Hi. I have a 2008 CX-9 Grand Touring, original owner, 145K miles with 20" wheels. The TPMS light is on and after checking, all of my tire pressures are fine. I have a Computer Reader and when I check codes it says something like Left Rear Sensor not responding. I reset the light hoping that...

For me it hasn't been an issue but my concern now in asking is "Is it an issue" because my 17 year old daughter is driving it now to school and I don't want her to get stranded if something is on the way out.

Thanks. I was going to change the fuel filter but it appears it is not easy to get to and that most people change it when the pump goes bad.
