Rear Brake Disc
Disc Runout Inspection
1.Loosen the front wheel nuts slightly, then raise thevehicle, and suppon it on safety stands. Removethe front wheels.
Remove the brake pads (see page 19-24).
Inspect the disc surface for damage and cracks.Clean the disc thoaoughly, and remove a

rust.
Use wheel nuts and suitable plain washers to holdthe disc securely against the hub. then mount a dialindicator as shown. and measure the runout at10 mm (0.4 in) from the outer edge of the disc.
Brake Disc Runout:
Service Limit:0.10 mm {0.00,t in)
5. lf the disc is beyond the service limit, refinish thebrake disc,
Max. Retinishing Limit: 8.0 mm {0.31 in)
NOTE: A new disc should be refinished if its runoutis greater than 0.10 mm (0.004 in).

Disc Thickness and Parallelism
Inspection
1. Loosen the front wheel nuts slightly, then raise thevehicle, and support it on safety stands. Removethe front wh6els.
2. Remove the brake pads (see page j9-24).
3. Using a micrometer. measure disc thickness aterght points, approximately 45" apart and 1o mm{0.4 in) in from the outer edge of the disc. Replacethe brake disc if the smallest measurement is lessthan the max. refinishing limit.
Brake Disc Thickness:
Standard: 8.9 - 9.1 mm (0.350 - 0.358 in)Max. Rsfinishing Limit: 8.0 mm {0.31 in}
Brake Disc Parallelirm: 0.015 mm(0.0006 inl msx.
NOTE; This is the maximum allowable differencebetween the thickness measurements.
4. lf the disc is beyond the service limit for Darallelism.refinish the brake disc.
NOTE; See section 18 for brake disc replacement.

B. The SRS indicator light can also indicate the DTC by the number of blinks when the SCS service connector is connect-ed to the service check connector (2P).
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for ten seconds. Then connect the SCS service connector to the service checkconnector (2P). lf you do not wait ten seconds, the SRS unit will not be completely reset and will not output DTCS.

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll). The SRS indicator light comes on for about six seconds and goes off. Then it will indi,cate the DTC:- The DTC consists of a main code and a sub-code.- Including the most recent problem, up to three different malfunctions can be indicated.- In case of a continuous failure, the DTC will be indicated repeatedly (see example 1 below).- In case of an intermittent failure, the SRS indicator light will indicate the DTC one time, then it will stay on (see exam-ple 2 below).
lf both a continuous and an intermittent failure occur, both DTCS will be indicated as continuous failures.- In case the system is normal (no DTC), the SRS indicator light will stay on (see example 3).3. Read the DTC.
4. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and wait for ten seconds. Then disconnect the SCS service connector from the servicecheck connector (2P).

:-lName of Circuit

In the "OHMS" range, the DVOM will measure
resistance between two points along a circuit.
Low resistance means good continuity.
Diodes and solid-state devices in a circuit can
make a DVOM give a false reading. To check
a reading, reverse the leads, and take a
second reading. lf the readings differ, the
component is affecting lhe measurement.
Jumper Wire
Use a jumper wire to bypass an open circuit.
A iumper wire is made up ot an in-line fuse
holder connected to a set of test leads. lt
should have a five amoere fuse. Never
connect a jumper wire across a short circuit.
The direct battery short will blow the fuse.
Short Finder (Short Circuit Locater)
Short finders are available to locale shorts to
ground. The short tinder creates a pulsing
magnetic field in the shorted circuit whlch you
can follow to the location of the short. lts use
is explained on page 15.
SHORT FINDER
To ordei any test equipment shown above,
contact your local tool supplier. For a list of
suppliers and tool numbers, refer to Honda
Required Special Tools and Equipment
Service Bulletin.

Troubleshooting Precautions
Before Troubleshooting
1. Check the main fuse and the fuse box.
2. Check the battery for damage, state of
charge, and clean and tight connections.
CAUTION:
. Do not quick-charge a battery unlers
the battery ground cable has been
disconnected, or you will damage the
alternator diodes.
. Do not attempt to crank the engine wlth
the ground cable disconnected or you
will severely damage the wiring.
While You're Working
1. Make sure connectors are clean, and have
no loose terminals or receptacles.
2. Make sure lhat connectors without wire
seals are packed with dielectric (silicone)
grease. Part Number: 08798-9001 .
Pack wllh dlelectrlc (sillcons) greass
When connecting a connector, push it until it"clicks" into place.
Do not pull on the wires when
disconnecting a connector. Pull
only on the connector houslngs.
Most circuits Include solid-state
devlces. Test the voltages In these
circuits only with a lo-megaohm or
higher impedance digital multlm6ter.
Never use a test light or analog meter
on chcuits that contain solld-state
devices. Damage to the devices
may result.

Troubleshooting Tests
Testing for Voltage Drop
Wires, connectors, and switches are designed
to conduct current wilh a minimum loss of
voltage. A voltage drop of more than one volt
indicates a Droblem.
'1. Place the digital volVohmmeter (DVOM) in
the appropriate DC volts range. Connect
the positive lead to the end of the wire
(or to the connector or switch) closest to
the bafterv.
Connect the negative lead to the other
end of the wire (or the other side of the
connector or switch).
Turn on the components in the circuit.
The DVOM will show the difference
in voltage between the two points. A
difference, or drop, of more than one
volt indicates a oroblem. Check the
circuit for loose, dirty, or bent terminals.
co
Testing lor a Short with a Test Light or DVOM
1. Remove the blown fuse and disconnect
the load.
2. Connect a test light or digital
oltr'ohmmeter
(DVOM), switched to the appropnare DC
volts range, across the tuse lerminals to
make sure voltage is present. You might
have to turn the ignition switch to ON:
check the schematic to see.
<-s80RT TOGFOUNO
Disconnecl lheload here.
Beginning near the luse box, wiggle the
harness. Continue this at convenient ooints
about six inches apart while watching the
test light or DVOM.
Where the test light goes off, or the DVOM
voltage drops to zero, there is a short to
ground in the wiring near that point.
NOTE: Always use a DVOM on high
impedance circuits. A test light may not
glow (even with battery voltage present).
