It means you have a problem with the transmission. Take the vehicle to a trusted transmission professional for repair.
In hot weather my Honda Accord 2000 starts but idles rough and dies.
There are several things that can cause your 1992 Honda Accord to start and then die out. The most common cause is an inconsistent flow of fuel. This can be caused by a dirty fuel filter.
If the 1984 Honda Accord engine dies when put in gear then it could be due to some faulty wiring.
Will need more information to answer question. what year? is there any dash light on? does the motor crank slow or not at all?
My 1986 Honda Accord Dx just started idling rough and dieing at turns and stops it is a carburated 2.0 witha maunal transmission
If a 1991 Honda Accord dies when the vehicle stops or slows down the Idle Air Control Valve may be broken. Once replaced the car will be able to regulate the air to fuel ratio appropriately and avoid stalling.
If the Honda Accord runs but dies after it's initial start-up it can be several issues. The ignition switch can cause the issues as well as a bad vacuum leak. To find the problem an engine diagnostic is recommended.
Your idel speed my be set too low.
Check to see if it is getting sparkCheck to see if it is getting fuelcheck your MAF. if it is disconnected or bad the car will do exactly as you state. it is usually located on the air cleaner assembly.
It's possible that the cause is a blown-out, center (3rd) brake light. I have a 1994 Accord EX. Same thing happend to me. Annoying!!!! It's a safety feature designed to "force" you to replace the bulb when it dies. Hope this helped.
Replace your idle air control valve
