section 1).
1. Remove the front console (see section Z0l.
2. Shift to @ position. then remove the lock pin fromthe adiuster.

3. Check that the hole in the adjuster is perfectlyaligned with the hole in the shift cable. There aretwo holes in the adjuster. They are positioned 90.apart to allow cable adjustment in 1/4 turn incre-ments.
ExactAlignment
4. lf the hole is not perfectly aligned, loosen the lock-nut on the adjuster and adjust as required.
5. Tighten the tocknut to 7 N.m (0.7 kgf.m, 5 tbf.ft).
6. Install the lock pin on the adjuster. lf you feel thelock pin binding as you reinstall it, the cable is stillout of adjustment and must be readjusted.
7. Make sure the lock pin is seated in the adjustersecuretv.
8. Move the shift lever to each gear, and verify that theshift position indicator follows the automatic trans-axle gear position switch.
9. Start the engine, and check the shift lever in allgears. lf any gear does not work properly, refer totroubleshooting (see page 14-109 thru 1'4-'112).
10. Insert the ignition key into the key cylinder on theAy'T gear position indicator panel, and verify that theshift lock lever is released.

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,
