Position sensor HONDA CR-V 2000 RD1-RD3 / 1.G Repair Manual

Road Test
NOTE: Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator tan comes on).
1. Before testing, check the transmission fluid level, see page 14-160.
2. Apply the parking brake and block the wheels. start the engine, then shift to E {'97 - 98) or E {'gg - 00) position
while pressing the brake pedal. Press the accelerator pedal and release it suddenly. The engine should not stall.
3. Repeat same test in E position ('97 - 98 models).
4. Test-drive the vehicle on a flat road in the E or E position. Check that the shift points occur at approximate speeds
shown on a flat road. Also check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage.
Throttle position sensor voltage represents the throttle opening. Monitor it with the Honda PGM Tester or as follows:
a. Unbolt the PCM for road testing; reJer to page 14-58.
b. Set the digital multimeter to check throttle position sensor voltage between these terminals on the PCM:
. '97 Model: Between terminals D'! (+) and A9 (-) or A22 {-}
. '98 - OO Models; Between terminals C27 (+) and 820 (-) or 822 {-)

Upshift
NOTE:
. Lock-upON:The lock-up control solenoid valve A turns ON.. Lock-up OFF: The lock-up control solenoid valve A turns OFF.
4. Accelerate to about 35 mph (57 km/h) so the transmission is in 4th. then shift from E or E position to E position.The vehicle should immediately begin slowing down from engine braking.
5. Check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage in the following positions.
E {1st Gear) Position
Accelerate from a stop at full throttle, Make sure there is no abnormal noise or clutch slippage.Upshifts should not occur with the shift lever in this position.
E (2nd cear) Position
Accelerate from a stop at fuI throttre. Make sure there is no abnormar noise or crutch srippage.Upshifts and downshifts should not occur with the shift lever in this position.
E (Reverse) Position
Accelerate from a stop at full throttle. and check for abnormal noise and clutch slippage.
6. Test in E (Park) Position
Park the vehicle on slope (approx. 16"), apply the parking brake, and shift into E position. Release the brake; the vehi-cle should not move.

properly, and hoist brackets are attached to the col-
rest position on the engine lsee section 11.
Apply th€ parking brake and block the r€ar wheels,
so vehicls will noi roll off the stands and fall on you
while working under it.
NOTE: Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted
surfaces.
Disconnect the negative terminal, then disconnect
the positive terminal from the battery.

Install the knuckle in the reverse order of removal.
and pay particular attention to the following items:
. Be careful not to damage the ball joint boots
when installing the knuckle.
. Torque all mounting hardware to the specified
toroue values.
a Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque speci-
fications, then tighten them only far enough to
align the slot with the pin hole. Do not align the
castle nut by loosening.
. Install new cotter pins on the castle nuts after
IOrqurng.
Avoid twisting the sensor wires when installing
the wheel sensor.
Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating
surfaces of the front hub and the inside of the
brake disc.
Before installing the wheel. clean the mating sur-
face of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel.
Check the front wheel alignment, and adjust it if
necessary (see page 18-4).

Self-diagnosis Function
The heater control panel has a self-diagnosis function.
Running the Self-diagnosis Function'97 mod€l:
Turn the ignition switch ON {ll), then set the mode control dial to the Vent position, and the recirculation controt switch toRecirculate {recirculation indicator light comes on). Press and hold the recirculation control switch to Fresh (recirculation indi-cator light goes off). Continue to hold the switch; the recirculation indicator light will come on for two seconds. then it willblink the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) to indicate a iaulty component. lf no DTC'S are found, the indicator liqht will notblink atter the initial two second light.
'98 - 00 models:
Set the mode control dial to the Vent position, and turn the ignition switch ON (ll). Within six seconds after turning the igni-tion switch on, press the recirculation control switch the required number of times depending on the recirculation indicatorlight status:
