Anyone out there had a no start problem. Replaced starter, battery, fob batteries, starter relays, and push button. I just ordered the Brake switch. Any thoughts. Can't take it in its too intermittent. I thought I had it and didn't start twice. My wife was stranded and she kept attempting while I was driving to get her. I show up get in the car and it starts.
No Start.

Having similar issue. 2016 TLX with V6. Battery tested good. Hooked voltmeter up with car of read 12.7 V. Started car, turned on heater, lights, stereo, etc., and voltmeter showed 14+ volts so tells me alternator is good. Battery only 1.5 years old. Put charger on battery and in 20+ minutes car starts right up. Car may go a week after battery is charged before it won’t start. Any ideas?

Did your vehicle originally come with an AGM battery and your replacement was also an AGM battery?

Research indicates the ‘16 TLX came with lead acid, not an AGM. Even though my battery tested good I’m going to swap it out.
Bought used, replaced with AGM battery.

2020 TLX Intermittent Starting, Park Brake & Engine...
Hello TLX Forums, We are long time Honda customers, but we are new to Acura. We purchased a used 2020 TLX (12,500 miles) in March 2022. TLX Technology, 2.4L I4 FWD. It was a personal lease vehicle that someone returned. We began having trouble starting the vehicle shortly after we purchased...

Wild card/long shot: Keep your cell phone as far away from the key fob as practical, especially if you/spouse have a late model iPhone. If I have my phone and key in the same pocket, for example, the car simply won't respond to the key on occasion. Other times it does. I have no explanation.
As long as they're in separate pockets, no problems.
Another: If the car simply doesn't respond to the key at all, place the key on the start button (physical contact) and hold that for 10 seconds.

Thanks for the info. We have attempted the key close to the start button at the time of no start. It still didn't start. Thanks, we will attempt on the next time. Both of us have old iphones.
It says in the owners manual to keep key fob away from all cellular devices.
I had an intermittent start issue pushing the start button, it was the battery!
The dealer checked the battery, the voltage was good but the cca was not on spec.
They refused to replace the battery, they put it on a charger, only to go back to the same old issue!
Took it back again, they tried to blow me off saying warranty would not cover, I told them to put it on accessory mode and see how long it lasts.It lasted 15 minute, got a new battery and the issue is gone.
The battery was only 2 years old.
