When the D indicator light has been reported on, use the appropriate procedure below to diagnose and repair the problem.




When the D indicator light has come on:




1. Connect the Honda PGM Tester or an OBD II scan tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLC) located near the left kick panel.
2. Turn the ignition switch ON.
3. Honda PGM Tester: Begin troubleshooting as indicated by the tester.
The DTC troubleshooting flowcharts are not needed with the tester; follow the tester's prompts.
OBDII scan tool: 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: See the OBD II scan tool or Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.

Some PGM-FI problems will also make the D indicator light come on.
After repairing the PGM-FI system, disconnect the BACK UP fuse (7.5 A) in the under-hood fuse relay box for more than 10 seconds to reset the PCM memory, then recheck.
