Road Test
NOTE: Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan com6s on).
1. Apply the parking brake and block the wheels. Start the engine, then shift to the E position while depressing the
brake pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal and release it suddenly. The engine should not stall.
2. Test in E position
Park the vehicle in a slope (approx. 16'). apply the parking brake, and shift into E position. Release the brake; the
vehicle should not move.
3. Test-drive the vehicle on a flat road in the position shown in the table. Check that the engine speeds meet the approx-imate vehicle speeds shown in the table.
NOTE: Throttle position sensor voltage represents the throttle opening. To monitor the throttle position sensor volt-age, use one of the following methods:
A. Connect the Honda PGM Tester, and go to the PGM-FI Data List.
A1For road testing on '96 - 98 models, remove the drive/s side kick panel to expose the TCM; on '99 - OO models,remove the passenger's side kick panel to expose the PCM (see page l,[-236),
Set the digital multimeter to check throttle position sensor voltage between terminals:. '96 - 98 modols: TCM 84 {+} and Aa (-) or A17 (-1.. '99 - 0O models: FCM C27 {+l and 820 (-l ot 822 l-1.

ABS Control Unit
Main Control
The ABS control unit detects the wheel speed based on the wheel sensor signal it received, then it calculates the vehicle
speed based on the detected wheel speed. The control unit detects the vehicle speed during deceleration based on the
rate of deceleration.
The ABS control unit calculates the slip rate of each wheel. and it transmits the control signal to the modulator unit
solenoid valve when the slip rate is high.
The pressure reduction control is a three-mode system, that is pressure reduction, pressure retaining and pressure intensi-
fying modes.
Self -diagnosis Funqtion
The ABS control unit is equipped with a main CPU and a sub CPU, and the CPUS check each other'
The CPUs check the circuit of the svstem.
When the CPUS detect failure, they shift to the "system down mode" or the "control inhibition mode"
The self-diagnosis can be classifield into these four categories:
O: Initial diagnosis
@: Except ABS control
@: During ABS control
@: During warning
On-board Diagnosis Funstion
The ABS control unit is connected to the data link connector {16P).
The ABS system can be diagnosed with the Honda PGM Tester.

Remove the front console panel (see section 20).
Remove the DIN cord from the stereo radio tuner.
Remove the four mounting bolts, then remove the
cassette player.
Stereo Radio/Cassette Player ('99 - 00 modelsl:
1. Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the
radio, then write down the frequencies for the
radio's oreset buttons.
Remove the center panel (see section 20).
Remove the four mounting screws, and disconnect
the 20P connector and antenna lead, then remove
the stereo radio/cassette player.

Master Switch Test (Sedan)
1.Remove the armrest from the driver's door panel
(see page 23-228).
Disconnect the 16P and 1P connectors from the
master switch.
Check for continuity between the terminals in each
switch position according to the tables
Driv€r's Switch:
The driver's switch is combined with the control unit so
you cannot isolate the switch to test it. Instead, run the
master switch input test procedures at terminals 83, 84,
85. BO and 87 on page 23-22A. lt the tests are normal,
the driver's switch must be faulty.

NOTE: Thecontrol unit is built intothe power window master switch, and only controls driver's door window operations.
1. Remove the driver's armrest, and disconnect the 16P and 1P connectors from the master switch.
2. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
a lf the terminals a re bent, loose orcorroded, repairthem as necessary, and recheck the system.
. lf the terminals look OK, make the following input tests at the connector.- lf a test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.- lf all the input tests prove OK. the power window maser switch must be faulty; replace it.
