A. When the MIL has come on:
1. Connect the Honda PGM Tester or an OBD II scan tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC) located under the glove box behind a removable cover.
2. Turn the ignition switch On.
3. Check the DTC and note it. Also check and note the freeze frame data. Refer to Trouble Code Charts and begin troubleshooting.
NOTE:
- See the OBD II 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 other Engine Control Module (ECM) data.
- Freeze frame data indicates the engine conditions when the first malfunction, misfire or fuel trim malfunction was detected. It can be useful information when troubleshooting.
B. When the MIL has not come on, but there is a driveability problem, refer to Diagnosis by Symptom. Symptom Related Diagnostic Procedures
