When the data link connector (DLC) (A) (located under the left end of the dash) is connected to the Honda diagnostic system (HDS), it will indicate the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) when the ignition switch is turned ON (II) and the appropriate menu is selected. NOTE: The illustration shows LHD model; RHD model is symmetrical. If the D indicator or malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) has been reported on, or if a driveability problem is suspected, follow this procedure: Connect the HDS to the DLC. (See the HDS user's manual for specific instructions.) Turn the ignition switch ON (II), select A/T system, and observe the DTC in the DTCs MENU on the tester screen. Record all fuel and emissions DTCs, A/T DTCs, and freeze data. If there is a fuel and emissions DTC, first check the fuel and emissions system as indicated by the DTC (except for DTC P0700, DTC P0700 means there is one or more A/T DTCs, and no problems were detected in the fuel and emissions circuit of the PCM). Clear the DTC and data. Drive the vehicle for several minutes under the same conditions as those indicated by the freeze data, and then recheck for a DTC. If the A/T DTC returns, go to the DTC troubleshooting Index. If the DTC does not return, there was an intermittent problem within the circuit. Make sure all pins and terminals in the circuit are tight. |
