Ifthe ‘matfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the dash does not ‘come on, check for poor connections or loose pins at all connectors related to the circuit that you are troubleshoating. The MIL may be turned off by the ECM/PCM if the problem that originally caused the MIL. to be illuminated was an intermittent problem. Opens and Shorts “Open and Short” are common electrical terms, An ‘open is a break in a wire or at a connection. A short is ‘an accidental connection of # wire to ground or to another wire. in simple electronics, this usually means something won't work at all. With complex electronics (such as ECMs and PCMs) this can sometimes mean something works, but not the way it's supposed to. How to Use the HDS (Honda Diagnestic System) ifthe MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) has come on 1. Start the engine and check the MIL (A\. NOTE: Ifthe ignition switch is turned ON «ti, and the engine is not started, the MIL will stay on for 115~20 seconds (see page 11-51). 2. Ifthe MIL stays on, connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard. SL 3. Turn the ignition switch ON (I. 4. Check the diagnostic trouble code (OTC) and note it, then download the onboard snapshot. Also check the freeze data. Refer to the DTC Troubleshooting Index (see page 11-8) and begin the appropriate troubleshooting procedure, NOTE: + Freeze data indicates the engine conditions when the first malfunction, misfire, or fuel trim malfunction was detected, + The HDS can read the OTC, freeze data, current data, and other engine control module (ECM)/ Powertrain control module (PCM) data. + For specific operations, refer to the user's ‘manual that came with the HDS. 5. If no DTCs are found, go to MIL troubleshooting (see page 11-148). {ifthe MIL did not stay on Ifthe MIL did not stay on but there is a driveability problem, refer to the Symptom Troubleshooting. if you can’t duplicate the DTC ‘Some of the troubleshooting caquires you to reset the ECMVPCM and try to duplicate the DTC. Ifthe problem is intermittent and you can't duplicate the code, do not continue through the procedure. To do so will only result in confusion, and possibly, a needlessly replaced ECMIPCM.

Stored data based (on failed parts should be cleared by using the “CLEAR COMMAND" of the HDS, if parts are replaced. ‘The HDS has three kinds of clear commands to meet the purpose. They are DTC clear, ECM/PCM reset, and CCKP pattern ciear. DTC clear command erases all stored DTC codes, freeze data and readiness codes. This must bbe done with the HDS after reproducing the DTC during ‘troubleshooting in this service manual. ECM/PCM reset command erases all stored DTC codes, {freeze data, readiness codes, and all specific data to ‘correct the system except CKP pattern. Ifthe CKP pattern data in ECM/PCN1 was cleared, you must do the CKP pattern learn procedure. The CKP pattern clear command erases only CKP pattern data. This command for the repair of a misfire or CKP sensor. DTC CLEAR 1. Clear the DTC with the HDS white the engine is stopped. 2. Turn the ignition switch OFF. '3. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).

How to Troubleshoot Circuits at the ECM/ PCM ‘Special Tools Required + Digital Multimeter KS-AHM-32-003 (1) or a commercially available digital multimeter + Backprobe Set 07SAZ-001000A (2) 1. Connect the backprobe adapters (A) to the stacking patch cords (B), and connect the cords to a digit multimeter, the tip into the connector from the wire side until it touches the end of the wire terminal, 3. Ifyou cannot get to the wire side of the connector or the wire side is sealed (A), disconnect the connector and prabe the ferminals (B) from the terrainal side. Do not force the probe into the ‘connector. Do not puncture the insulation on a wir. Punctures can cause poor or intermittent electrical connections. a 11-5Fuel and Emissions Systems General Troubleshooting Information (cont'd) ECM/PCM Updating and Substitution tor Testing ‘Special Tools Required Honda Interface Module (HIM) EOS05A35570 Use this procedure when you have to substitute known-good ECM/PCM in a troubleshooting procedure. Update the ECM/PCM only ifthe ECM/PCM does not, have the latest software loaded. NOTE: Do not turn the ignition switch OFF while Updating the ECM/PCM. If you turn the ignition switch OFF before completion, the ECM/PCM can be damaged, How to Update the ECM/PCM NoTE: + To ensure the latest program is installed, do an ECM/ PCM update whenever the ECM/PCM is substituted or replaced. + You can not update an ECM/PCM with the program it, already has. It will only accept a new program. + Bofore you update the ECM/PCM, make eure the vehicle's battery is fully charged. + To prevent ECM/PCM damage, do not operate anything electrical (audio system, brakes, A/C, power windows, moonroof, door locks, etc.) during the update. + It you need to diagnose the Honda Interface Module (HIM) because the HIM's red (#3) light came on or was flashing during the update, leave the ignition switch in the ON ll) position when you disconnect the HIM from the data link connector (DLC). This will prevent ECM/PCM damage. 1. Turn the ignition switch ON (I). Do not start the engine. 2. Connect the HDS or the Honda Interface Module (HIM) to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard, 3. Do the ECM/PCM update procedure as described ‘on the HIM label and in the ECM/PCM update system. 4. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see page 11-239). 5. Do the CKP PATTERN Learn Procedure, if you did the troubleshooting for DTC P0300, Pa301, Po302, P0303, P0304, P0305, P0306, P0335, P0339, P0340, 0344, PO38S or P0389.v3 Haw to Substitute the ECM/PCM. 1. Connect the HDS ¢o the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard, 2. Turn the ignition switch ON (I. 3. Select READ DATA in the REPLACE ECM/PCM with, the HDS. 4.
