Troubleshooting Procedures
How To Begin Troubleshooting
When the Malfunction indicator Lamp (MlLl has been reported on, or there is a driveability problem, use the appropri-ate procedure below to diagnose and repair the problem.
A. When the MIL has come on:
1. Connect the Honda PGM Tester or an OBD Il scan tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC) located behind theright side of the center console.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
Check the DTC and note it. Also check and note
the freeze frame data.
Refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart and
begin troubleshooting.
NOTE:
. SeetheOBDll scan tool or Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.. The scan tool or tester can read the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC), freeze frame data, current data, and otherEngine Control Module (ECM}/Powertrain Control Module (PCM) data.. Freeze frame data indicates the engine conditions when the first malfunction, misfire or fuel trim malfunction wasdetected. lt can be useful information when troubleshootino.
B. When the MIL has not come on, but there is a driveability problem, refer to the Symptom Chart on page 11-64.
C. DTCs will be indicated by the blinking of the Malfunction Indicator Lamp {MlL) with the SCS service connector con-nected.
Connect the SCS service connector to Service Check Connector as shown. {The 2P Service Check Connecror rslocated behind the right side of the center console.) Turn the ignition switch ON 0l).

HO2S
Feedback
Loop Status
Loop status is indicated as "open" or "closed".
Closed: Based on the HO2S output, the ECM/pCM deter-mines the airlfuel ratio and controls the amount ofinjected fuel.
Open: ignoring HO2S output, the ECM/pCiM refers to sig,nals from the TP, MAP, and ECT sensors to control theamount of injected fuel.
At idle speed: closed
YES
Short Term
Fuel Trim
The airlfuel ratio correction coefficient for correcting theamount of injected fuel when HO2S feedback is in theclosed loop status. When the signal from the HO2S isweak, short term fuel trim gets higher, and the ECM/PCMincreases the amount of injected fuel. The airlfuel ratiogradually gets richer, causing a higher HO2S output.Consequently. the short term fuel trim is lowered. andthe ECM/PCM reduces the amount of injected fuel.This cycle keeps the airfuel ratio close to the stoichio-metric ratio when in closed looD status.
t:20y"
YES
Long Term
Fuel Trim
Long term fuel trim is computed from shon term fueltrim and indicates changes occuring in the fuel supplysystem over a long period.
lf long term fuel trim is higher than 1,00. the amount ofinjected fuel must be increased. lf it is lower than L00.the amount of injected fuel must be reduced.

Intake Air
Temperature
(IAT)
The IAT sensor converts intake air temperature into volt-age and signals the ECrU/PCM. When intake air tempera-ture is low, the internal resistance of the sensorincreases, and the voltage signal is higher.
With cold engine:
Same as ambient temper-
ature and ECTYES
Throttle
Position
Based on the accelerator pedal position, the openingangle of the throttle valve is indicateo.At idle speed:
approx. 10%
lgnition
Timing
lgnition timing is the ignition advance angle set by theECM/PCM. The ECM/PCM matches ignition timing to thedriving conditions.
At idle speed: 16'1 4.
