Troubleshooting Proccdures
How To Begin Troubleshooting
When the Malfunction lndicator Lamp {MlL) has been reponed 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 ll
scan tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC)
located behind the front console right side.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
3. 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 scantool or Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.
. The scan tool or tester can read the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (OTC). freeze frame data, current data, and other
Engine Control Module (ECM) data.
. Freeze frame data indicates the engine conditions when the first malfunction, misfire or luel trim malfunction
was detected. lt can be useful information when troubleshooting.
B. When the MIL has not come on, but there is a driveability problem, refer to the Symptom Chart on page 11-36.
C. DTCS wjll be indicated by the blinking of the Malfunction lNdicator Lamp {MlL) with the SCS service connector con-
nected.
Connect the SCS service connector to Service Check Connector as shown. (The 2P Service Check Connector is
located under the dash on the passenger's side of the car,) Turn the ignition switch on (lll.

How to Read Flowcharts
A flowchart is designed to be used from start to final repair. lt's like a map showing you the shone$ distance. But beware:if you go off the "map" anywhere but a "stop" symbol, you can easily get lost.

NOTE:
. The term "lntermittent Failure" is used in these chans. lt simply means a system may have had a failure, but it checksout OK at this time. lf the Malfunction lndicator Lamp (MlL) on the dash does not come on, check for poor connectionsor loose wires at all connectors related to the circuit that you are troubleshooting (see illustration below).. Most of the troubleshooting flowcharts have you reset the Engine Control Module (ECM) and try to duplicate theDiagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). lf the problem is intermittent and you can't duplicate the code, do not continue throughthe flowchart. To do so will only result in confusion and, possibly, a needlessly replaced ECM.. "Open" and "Short" are common electrical terms. An open is a break in a wire or at a connection. A short is an acci-dental connection of a wire to ground or to another wire. In simple electronics, this usually means something won,twork at all. In complex electronics (like ECM's), this can sometimes mean something works, but not the way rr s sup-posed 10.

3.Fuel Cut-off Control
. Du ring dece leration with the th rottle va lve closed, cu rrent to the fuel injectors is cutoffto improvefuel economyat
speeds over following rpm:. B'1881 engine: 970 rpm {Canada model: 1.050 rpm). B18C1 engine:970 rpm {Canada model: 1.050 rpm). 818C5 engine: 1,300 rpm (Canada model: 1,400 rpm)
. Fuel cut-off action also takes place when engine speed exceeds 7,000 rpm (B'1881 engine), 8.100 rpm (818C1
engine) or 8,600 rpm (818C5 engine), regardless ol the position of the thronle valve, to protect the engine from
over-revving.
A,,/C ComDressor Clutch Relav
When the ECM receives a demand for cooling from the air conditioning system, it delays the compressor from being
energized, and enriches the mixture to assure smooth transition to the A,/C mode.
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Control Solenoid Valve
When the engine coolanl temperature is above '154'F (68'C) and the air conditioner on. the ECM controls the EVAPpurge control solenoid valve which controls vacuum to the EVAP purge control canister.
Intake Air Eypass (lAB) Control Solenoid Valve*a
When the engine rpm is below 5,750 rpm, rhe IAB control solenoid valve is activated by a signal from the ECM, intake
air flows through the long intake path, then high torque is delivered. At speeds higher than 5,750 rpm, the solenoidvalve is deactivated by the ECM, and intake air flows through the short intake path in order to reduce the resistance in
airflow.
Sell-diagnosis Function lMalfunction Indicator Lamp {MlL)lWhen an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM supplies ground for the MIL and stores the code in
erasable memory. When the ignition is initially turned on, the ECM supplies ground for the N4lL tor two seconds to
check the MIL bulb condition.
Two Driving Cycle Detection Method
To prevent false indications, the Two Driving Cycle Detection Method is used for the HO2S, fuel metering-related, idle
control system, ECT sensor, TWC and EVAP control system and other self-diagnostic functions, When an abnormality
occurs, the ECM stores it in its memory. When the same abnormality recurs after the ignition switch is turned OFFand ON (ll)again, the ECM informs the driver by lighting the MlL.
However, to ease troubleshooting, this function is cancelled when you shon the service check connector. The MIL will
then blink immediately when an abnormality occurs.

ECM Fail-safe/8ack.up F0nctions
1. Fail-sate Function
When an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM ignores that signal and assumes a pre-programmed
value for that sensor that allows the enqine to continue to run.
2. Back-uo Function
When an abnormality occurs in the ECM itself, the fuel injectors are controlled by a back-up circuit independent of the
system in order to permit minimal driving.
