This is a 2014 Honda Odyssey (push button start) with ~60k miles. I've experienced the same problem twice now in the last 10-12 months.
Failed start. No cranking or turning over of any kind. The battery seems fine because headlights, radio, windows, doors all work fine. I resolve the problem (temporarily it would seem) by replacing the ignition coil fuse (slot #11 on the passenger side fuse box).
I'm anxious to determine if there is a serious problem coming up. However, what I'm seeing in this vehicle is very different from the descriptions I'm reading from others with problems with this particular fuse.
(1) The fuse isn't actually blown when I pull it out. It's intact as far as I can tell. However, it was incredibly difficult to remove with pliers (both times) and the metal contacts that plug into the socket have some brown discoloration on them.
(2) I'm not observing any other problems with the car at all.
Thoughts? Thanks in advance....
