alright i work at a cleaners and i have to park my car in the back in the sun and it gets hella hot and wen i try to leave at like 2 or so its soooo hot and my car wont start.. it turns but it doesnt start. its only like that when its hot outside like in the morning or at night its fine onli at about 12-2 when its hot as hell outside. i live in Grand Prairie(DFW area) and im new to this forum the TRD are my initials so i know its also toyota's line i know

 

On 4th Generation Accords thats a sign that teh Amin PGM-FI relay is going bad. The heat causes the contacts to separate and not allow the car to start. When it cools down the contacts touch again and you can start the car.

 

Main PGM-FI fuel relay. I forgot spell check.

 

i've had that problem for 2 years now. one day after work i was really pissed the way it was, and it wouldnt start because of the heat. so i just turned the key back n forth to ignition a few times till the starter grinded, and it started right up. it's worked every single time now. so thats my fix for it, not worth changing that relay imo

 

anything with metal contacts expands in the heat. your contacts could be lose in the main fuel relay. its an easy part to replace. just do a search. it tends to act up mostly in the hot weather. starter contacts can get dirty too.

 

ok so i went to school today and got out at 1:25 got to my car and tried to crank her up to go to work and yupp it didnt start so i had to call my cousin to pick me up... we went to autozone and they dont have it they said its a dealership part only... which really sucks so im thinking if its cause the main relay i'm gonna get to school imma just unplug it and take it with me??? does that sound like a good idea??? until i can get to the dealership???

your relay is fragged. I live in DFW too. this summer has sucked...I drive a 5th gen and I'm surprised my relay hasn't given out yet, but my friend Eddy's fried about 4 days ago. We hopped on the internet and found out what happened...replacing it is time-consuming but pretty easy.
leave your windows cracked, or buy one of those solar-powered microfans that just came on the market.

Also, when you park and leave it for a few hours, turn your ac to full hot and use the "Outside Air" setting...open all your AC vents inside your car fully. this basically opens all the shutters and fans in the front of your car and lets air circulate through your car's open AC system...doesn't cool a LOT but it def. prevents heat from building as quickly.
This summer is going to kill so many great accords.
