SEL/RESET BUTTON
The maintenance minder is an important feature of the information display. Based on engine and transmission
operating conditions, the Acura CSX’s onboard computer (ECM/PCM) calculates the remaining engine oil and the
automatic transmission fluid life. The system also displays the remaining engine oil life along with the code(s) for
other scheduled maintenance items needing service.

1. The remaining engine oil life (A) is shown as apercentage on the information display. To see the
current engine oil life, turn the ignition switch to
ON (II), then push and release the SEL/RESET
button repeatedly until the engine oil life displays.
2. When the ignition switch is ON (II), and the remaining engine oil life is 6 % to 15 %, the
remaining engine oil life (A) and other scheduled
maintenance item(s) needing service are displayed.
The maintenance minder indicator (B) also comes
on when the engine oil life is 15 % or less. To
cancel the display and the indicator, press SEL/
RESET button.
 Complete list of maintenance main items (C) (see page 3-7).
 Complete list of maintenance sub items (D) (see page 3-8). 3. When the ignition switch is ON (II), and the
remaining engine oil life is 1 % to 5 %, the message
‘‘SERVICE’’ (A) is displayed along with engine oil
life and the same maintenance item code(s).
4. When the ignition switch is ON (II), and the remaining engine oil life is 0 %, the engine oil life
indicator (A) blinks. Pressing SEL/RESET button
cancels the display, but the maintenance minder
indicator stays on.
5. If the indicated maintenance is not done, the engine oil life indicator shows a negative mileage, for
example ‘‘ 10,’’ on the display. If the negative
mileage is between 0 and 9, the indicator is
displayed for only a few seconds when the ignition
switch is turned to ON (II). The negative mileage
remains displayed after the vehicle is driven more
than 10 km after 0 % oil life is reached, and the
display cannot be canceled.
This means the indicated maintenance item(s)
should have been done more than 10 km ago.

General Information (cont’d)
NOTE:
 The vehicle must be stopped to reset the display.
 If a required service is done and the display is not reset, or the maintenance display is reset without
doing the service, the system will not show the
proper maintenance timing. This can lead to serious
mechanical problems because there will be no
accurate record of when the required maintenance is
needed.
 The engine oil life and the maintenance item(s) can be only reset independently with the HDS.
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Push and release the SEL/RESET button repeatedly until the engine oil life indicator is displayed.
3. Press and hold the SEL/RESET button for about 10 seconds. The engine oil life indicator and the
maintenance item code(s) will blink, then release
the button.
NOTE: If you are resetting the display when the
engine oil life is more than 15 %, make sure the
maintenance item(s) requiring service are done
before resetting the display.
4. Press and hold the SEL/RESET button for another 5 seconds. The maintenance item code(s) will
disappear, and the engine oil life will reset to ‘‘100’’. 1. Connect the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) to the
data link connector (DLC) (see step 2 on page 11-3).
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the engine control module/powertrain control
module (ECM/PCM). If it doesn’t communicate,
troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11-6).
4. Select GAUGES in the BODY ELECTRICAL with the HDS.
5. Select ADJUSTMENT in the GAUGES with the HDS.
6. Select SERVICE REMINDER in the ADJUSTMENT with the HDS.
7. Select RESET in the SERVICE REMINDER with the HDS.
8. Select the individual maintenance item you wish to reset.

Brake fluid (see page 19-9)
Windshield washer fluid (see page 22-234)
Inspect exhaust system: K20Z2 (see page 9-13), K20Z3 (see page 9-14)
Check catalytic converter heat shields, exhaust pipes, and muffler for damage, leaks, and tightness.

Engine Compression Inspection
NOTE: After this inspection, you must reset the engine
control module (ECM)/powertrain control module
(PCM), otherwise the ECM/PCM will continue to stop
the fuel injectors from operating. 1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (cooling fan comes on).
2. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
3. Connect the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) to the data link connector (DLC) (see step 2 on page 11-3).
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
5. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the ECM/PCM. If it does not communicate,
troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11- 204).
6. Select ALL INJECTORS STOP in the PGM-FI, INSPECTION menu with the HDS.
7. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
8. Remove the four ignition coils (see page 4-21).
9. Remove the four spark plugs.
10. Attach the compression gauge to a spark plug hole. 11. Step on the accelerator pedal to open the throttle
fully, then crank the engine with the starter motor,
and measure the compression.
12. Measure the compression on the remaining cylinders.
13. If the compression is not within specifications, check the following items, then remeasure the
compression.
 Incorrect valve clearance
 Confirmation of cam timing
 Damaged or worn cam lobes
 Damaged or worn valves and seats
 Damaged cylinder head gasket
 Damaged or worn piston rings
 Damaged or worn piston and cylinder bore
14. Remove the compression gauge from the spark plug hole.
15. Install the four spark plugs.
16. Install the four ignition coils (see page 4-21).
17. Select the ECM/PCM reset (see page 11-4) in the PGM-FI INSPECTION menu to cancel ALL
INJECTORS STOP with the HDS.

4. Set the crankshaft to top dead center (TDC). Align
the TDC mark (A) on the crankshaft sprocket with
the pointer (B) on the engine block.
5. Set the camshaft pulley to TDC (see step 2 on page 6-21).
6. Install the cylinder head on the engine block.
7. Measure the diameter of each cylinder head bolt at point A and point B.
8. If either diameter is less than 10.6 mm (0.42 in.), replace the cylinder head bolt. 9. Apply new engine oil to the threads and under the
bolt heads of all cylinder head bolts.
10. Tighten the cylinder head bolts in sequence to 39 N·m (4.0 kgf·m, 29 lbf·ft). Use a beam-type
torque wrench. When using a preset click-type
torque wrench, be sure to tighten slowly and do not
overtighten. If a bolt makes any noise while you are
torquing it, loosen the bolt and retighten it from the
first step.
11. After torquing, tighten all cylinder head bolts in two steps (90 ° per step) using the sequence shown in
step 10. If you are using a new cylinder head bolt,
tighten the bolt an extra 90 °.
NOTE: Remove the cylinder head bolt if you
tightened it beyond the specified angle, and go
back to step 6 of the procedure. Do not loosen it
back to the specified angle.
