Troubleshooting Procedures
Checking ths Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
with an O8D ll Scan tool or Honda PGM Tsster
When the PCM senses an abnormality in the input or output systems, the El ('97 - 98) or E ('99 - O0) indicator light in thegauge ass€mbly will blink. When the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC) {located under the dash on the passenger's side) is
connected to the OBD ll Scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester as shown, the scan tool or tester will indicate the Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) when the ignition switch is turned ON(ll).
HONDA PGM TESTER olOBD II SCAN TOOL
lf the E or E indicator light or the MIL has been reported on, or if a driveability problem is suspected, follow this proce-
dure:
1. Connect the OBD ll Scan Tool (conforming to SAE J1978) or Honda PGM Tester to the 16P DLC. (See the OBD ll ScanTool or Honda PGM Tester user's manual for specific instructions. lf you are using the Honda PGM Tester, make sureit is set to the SAE DTC Wpe).2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and observe the DTC on the screen
3. Record allfuel and emission DTCS, A,,/T DTCS, and freeze data.
4. lf there is a fuel and emissions DTC, first check the fuel and emissions system as indicated by the DTC (except for DTCP0700). DTC P0700 means there is one or more Ay'T DTC, and no Droblems were detected in the fuel and emissionscircuit of the PCM.
5. Wire down the radio station presets.
6. Reset the memory with the PGM Tester o. by removing the BACK UP fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box for morethan 10 seconds.
7. Drive the vehicle for several minutes at speeds over 30 mph (50 km/hr), and then recheck for DTCS. lf the A/T DTCreturns, 9o to the Symptom-to Component Chart on pages 14-60 and 14-61 for the '97 models, and pages 14-62 and14-63 for '98 - 00 models. lf the OTC does not return, there was an intermittent problem within the circuit. Make sureall pins and terminals in the circuit are tight, and then go to step 8.8. Reset the radio Dreset stations, and set the clock.

Park Pin Switch Test
SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS
compongnt locations, precautions, and procedures in the
SRS section (24) before performing repairs or service,
1. Remove tho instrument panel lower cover (see sec-
tion 20).
Remove the upper and lower steering column cov-
ers (see section 17).
Disconnect the park pin switch connector.
Shift the shift lever into E position, then check for
continuity betwsgn these conngctor terminals:
. '97 - 98 models; No. 1 and No, 3 terminals of the
park pin switch connector.

Valve Body
Repair
NOTE: This repair is only necessary if one or more ofthe valves in a valve body do not slide smoothly in theirbores. Use this procedure to free the varves.
'1. Soak a sheet of #600 abrasive paper in ATF forabout 30 minutes.
2. Carelully tap the valve body so the sticking valvedrops out of its bore. lt may be necessary to use asmall screwdriver to pry the valve free. Be carefulnot to scratch the bore with the screwdriver.
4.
Inspect the valve for any scutf marks. Use the ATF-soaked #600 paper to polish off any burrs that areon the valve, then wash the valve in solvent and dryit with compressed air.
Roll up half a sheet of ATF-soaked #600 paper andinsert it in the valve bore of the sticking valve.Twist the paper slightly, so that it unrolls and fitsthe bore tightly, then polish the bore by twisting thepaper as you push it in and out.
NOTE: The valve body is aluminum and doesn,trequire much polishing to remove any ourrs.
,l
14-192
5.Remove the #600 paper. Thoroughly wash theentire valve body in solvent, then dry it with com-pressed ar.
Coat the valve with ATF, then drop it into its bore, ltshould drop to the bottom of the bore under its ownweight. lf not, repeat step 4, then retest. lf the valvestill sticks, replace the valve body.
Remove the valve. and thoroughly clean it and thevalve body with solvent. DrV all parts with com-pressed air, then reassemble using ATF as a lubricant.
