Troubleshooting Procedures
l. How To Begin Troubleshooting
When the E indicator light has been reported on, use the appropriate procedure below to diagnose and repatr theproDlem.
A. When the @ indicator light has come on:
l connect the Honda PGM Tester or an oBD ll Scan Tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLc) located near the leftkick panel.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
Check the DTC and note it. Also check and notethe freeze frame data.
Refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart andbegin troubleshooting.
INOICATORLIGHT
NOTE: SeetheOBDll Scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.
Some PGM-FI problems will also make the E indicator light come on. After repairing the pGM-Fl system, disconnect theBACK UP fuse (7.5 Al in the under-hood fuse/relay box for more than l0 seconds to reset the TCM or PCM memory, rnenrecheck.
NOTE: Disconnecting the BACK UP fuse also cancels the radio preset stations and the clock setting. Make note of theradio presets before removing the fuse so you can reset them,

C. lf the inspection for a particular code requires voltage or resistance checks at the TCM or PCM connectors, removethe driver's side kick panel, and unbolt the TCM, and at the PCM connectors, remove the passenger's side kickpanel, and unbolt the PCM. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and connect the backprobe sets and a digital multimeteras described below. Check the system according to the procedure described for the appropriate code(s) listed onthe following pages.

switch is on (ll).14-264
NOTE:
. lf a customer described the symptom for code P1706 (6), it will be necessary to recreate the symptom by test driving,
then recheck the DTC.
. Sometime the E indicator light and the Malfunction Indicator lamp (MlL) may come on simultaneously. lf so, repair the
pGM-Fl system according to the DTc, then reset the memory by removing the BACK uP fuse in the under-hood
fuse/relay box for more than 10 seconds. Drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed over 30 mph (50 km/h)' then
recheck the DTC.
