Electrical diagnostics

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! If your 2008 Acura RDX is lighting up the dash like it’s trying to send Morse code, you’re smart to look into electrical diagnostics. Multiple warning lights coming on at once—especially if they’re unrelated systems—often points to a bad ground, weak battery, failing alternator, or a glitchy control module. In Plains, Pennsylvania or nearby, your best bet is to find a shop that has solid experience with electrical systems and access to Honda/Acura-specific scan tools. Not every shop has the tools or patience for electrical gremlins, so it’s worth going to someone who does this regularly. We can help you find a trusted RepairPal Certified shop in your area that handles electrical diagnostics the right way. If you need any further advice or want help finding a trusted RepairPal shop in your area, please feel free to call us at 877-913-1554.
