SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
BODY CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (B-CAN) AND FAST CONTROLLER AREA
NETWORK (F-CAN)

Fast controller Area Network (F-CAN) and Body Controller Area Network (B-CAN) share information
between multiple Electronic Control Units (ECUs). B-CAN communication moves at a slower speed for
convenience related items, and for other functions. F-CAN information moves at a faster speed for "real
time" functions such as fuel and emissions data. To allow both systems to share information, the Gauge
Control Module translates information from B-CAN to F-CAN and from F-CAN to B-CAN.

The ECUs on the B-CAN and F-CAN transmit and receive information in the form of structured messages
that may be received by several different ECUs on the network at one time. These message are transmitted
and received across a communication circuit that consists of a single wire that is shared by all the ECUs on
the circuit. Since messages on the F-CAN network are typically of higher importance, a second wire is used
for communication circuit integrity monitoring. A backup circuit is also added to the headlight and wiper
circuits on the B-CAN network in the event of a network wire or ECU failure that would effect the operation
of the system.

Fig. 3: B-CAN And F-CAN System Description


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

Messages are transmitted by an ECU (that monitors an input) over the communication circuit. ECUs that use
the message (information related to that input) are the receivers. For example, the Combination Switch
Control Unit monitors the wiper switch. When the wiper switch is placed in the low speed position, the
Combination Switch Control Unit transmits that message on the communication circuit. The Relay Control
Module receives the message and turns on the wipers by providing a ground for the relay.

Several ECUs are connected to each of the two networks. The Gauge Control Module is part of both
networks since it is the "Gateway" between them. Below is a list of ECUs and the network they are

NETWORK "LOSS OF COMMUNICATION" ERROR CHECKING

The B-CAN and F-CAN systems send messages to each other to check the integrity of the network
communication circuit. They do this by sending a specific digital message out after an event. For example,
turning the ignition switch to ON. After the switch to ON, all the ECUs on the communication circuit expect
to receive a message from other specific units within a specified amount of time. If the message is not
received, the ECU will transmit a DTC reporting that the control units did not communicate.

Example of communication circuit test

Normal circuit

1. Ignition switch turned ON.


2. The door multiplex control unit transmits a door switch signal.
3. The multiplex integrated control unit (MICU), relay control module and gauge control module receive
the door lock switch signal.
4. Communication circuit test is passed.

Since the door lock switch message was received by all the ECUs expecting to receive a signal, the
communication circuit between those units is OK. There are multiple signal sent and received by each
ECU during this time to insure that the communication circuit is intact.

Failed circuit

5. Ignition switch is turned ON.

6. The door multiplex control unit transmits a door switch signal.


7. The multiplex integrated control unit (MICU), relay control module and gauge control module expect
to receive the door lock switch signal, but since there is a break in the communication circuits, it is not
received.
8. Each ECU that expects to receive the door lock switch signal from the door multiplex control unit will
transmit DTCs for the signal that it did not receive.

Fig. 6: Example Of Communication Circuit Test


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

Since there is a break in the communication circuit, the door lock switch signal could not be received by the
gauge control module, multiplex integrated control unit (MICU) or the relay control module. Each of these
units will set "loss of communication" error codes for the signal(s) they did not receive. There may be
multiple communication DTCs if the unit that has become disconnected from the network would normally
transmit multiple messages during the communication line test. For example, the door multiplex control unit
sends keyless panic signal and door lock switch signal during the communication circuit test.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

There are three DTC types used by the CAN networks.

DIAGNOSTIC CHART
The ECUs run internal checks. If one finds that
there is an internal ECU problem, it will set an
internal error DTC.
Internal error DTCs
Confirm that the battery and charging system are
OK. If so, this indicates that the ECU needs to be
replaced.

Loss of communication DTCs (and Bus-off DTCs)


Loss of communication DTCs are set when there is a problem with the
communication between ECUs. This could be in
the connections, the wiring, or the ECU (as called

out in the DTC Troubleshooting index).


The ECUs can run diagnostics on some input
circuits to determine if that circuits is functioning
Signal error DTCs properly (no opens or shorts). If a circuit falls the
diagnostic test, a DTC will set (NOTE: Not all
input circuits are tested for errors).

Troubleshooting the CAN circuit related problems

Using the HDS (Preferred method)

1. Go to B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode A to check for "Connected units" and DTCs (see
TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A ).
2. If no DTCs are retrieved, go to B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE C or B-CAN
SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE D.

Without the HDS

(Should be used only if HDS is unavailable)

3. Check for communication circuit problems using B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode 1 (see
TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE 1 AND TEST MODE 2
(WITHOUT THE HDS) ).
4. Check for DTCs while in Mode 1 (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
TEST MODE 1 AND TEST MODE 2 (WITHOUT THE HDS) ).
5. Sort, and then troubleshoot the DTCs in the order below. Refer to the DTC TROUBLESHOOTING
INDEX for DTC descriptions.
1st. Internal error and voltage failure DTCs
2nd. Loss of communication DTCs
3rd. Signal error DTCs
6. If no DTCs are retrieved, use B-CAN System Diagnosis Test Mode 2 to check all inputs related to
failure (see TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE 1 AND
TEST MODE 2 (WITHOUT THE HDS) ).

Loss of Communication DTC cross-reference chart

When an ECU is unable to communicate with the other ECUs on the circuit, the other units will set
loss of communication DTCs. Use this chart to find the control unit that is not communicating.

7. Find the Transmitting Unit that is in the same row as all of the loss of communication DTCs retrieved.
8. Perform the input test for the transmitting unit.

under-hood fuse/relay box, power window master switch, wiper/washer switch and gauge one at
a time, in that order, and recheck for the DTCs after each substitution.
 DTC 1 only: Go to MICU input test (see MICU INPUT TEST ).

 DTC 2 only (no other DTCs present): Go to the relay module input test. If all inputs are OK,
substitute a known-good relay module and then a MICU, one at a time, and then check for
DTCs. If a DTC recurs after a substitution, replace that unit.
 DTC 3 only (no other DTCs present): Go to the door multiplex control unit input test. If all
inputs are OK, substitute a known-good door multiplex control unit and then a MICU, one at a
time, and then check for DTCs. If a DTC recurs after a substitution, replace that unit.
 DTC 4 only (no other DTCs present): Go to the combination switch control unit input test. If all
inputs are OK, substitute a known-good wiper/washer switch and then a MICU, one at a time,
and then check for DTCs. If a DTC recurs after a substitution, replace that unit.
 DTC 5 only (no other DTCs present): Go to the GAUGE CONTROL MODULE INPUT
TEST. If all inputs are OK, substitute a known-good gauge control module and then a MICU,
one at a time, and then check for DTCs. If a DTC recurs after a substitution, replace that unit.

COMPONENT LOCATION INDEX

Fig. 1: Locating Immobilizer System Components


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The vehicle is equipped with a type IV immobilizer system that will disable the vehicle unless the proper
ignition key is used. This system consists of a transponder located in the ignition key, an immobilizer
control unit-receiver, an indicator light, and the ECM/PCM.

When the key is inserted in the ignition switch and turned to the ON (II) position, the immobilizer control
unit-receiver sends power to the transponder in the ignition key. The transponder then sends a coded signal
back to the immobilizer control unit-receiver which then sends a coded signal to the ECM/PCM. The code is
a rolling type embedded in the immobilizer control unit-receiver instead the ECM/PCM.

NOTE: This key is similar in appearance to other models, but it is a rolling code
type.
Only key with a V on the shank can be used.

 If the proper key has been used, the immobilizer indicator light will come on for about 2 seconds, then
go off.
 If the wrong key has been used or the code was not received or recognized by the unit, the indicator
light will come on for about 2 seconds, then it will blink until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
 If the ignition switch is turned OFF, the indicator will blink for about 5 seconds to signal that the unit
has reset correctly, then the indicator will go off.

If you suspect there is a immobilizer system problem, check the status log. The HDS can be used to check
the number of times the immobilizer control unit receiver doesn't permit the engine to run by check the
LOG.STATUS.

NOTE: Status log may not be available for all models. If you have an updated
immobilizer control unit-receiver ('03-05 models) or a '06-07 models, status
log should be available.

1. Connect the HDS to the data link connector.


2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
3. On the HDS screen, select Honda systems, select immobilizer set-up, select immobilizer information,
then select status log.
4. Check the Status log count. Troubleshoot the status with the highest count first. If no counts are listed,
the immobilizer system is OK. Continue with normal symptom troubleshooting.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
SECURITY ALARM SYSTEM

The security alarm system is armed automatically after the doors, hood, and trunk are closed and locked. For
the system to arm, the ignition switch must be off, the key must be removed, and the MICU must receive
signals that the doors, hood, trunk are closed and locked. The alarm can be disarmed at any time by
unlocking the driver's door with the key or pressing the UNLOCK button on the remote transmitter.

111
2 августа 2011 г. 14:43:16 Page 2 © 2006 Mitchell Repair Information Company, LLC.
2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-07 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Keyless/Power Door Locks/Security System - Accord

When everything is closed and locked, the only inputs that are grounded, and have 0 volts, are the driver's
door lock knob switch (LOCK position), and the integrated audio-HVAC display module. In other words, all
of the other switches are open, and have about 5 volts with system awake and 1 volts in sleep mode,
including the key cylinder switches. The security indicator in the gauge control module begins to flash
immediately after the vehicle is completely closed and locked, and 15 seconds later, the security system
arms and the security indicator flashes on for a shorter amount of time than before. If the security indicator
does not flash, the system is not arming. A beep sounds and parking lights flash to confirm the security
alarm system is armed if the LOCK button is pressed a second time within 5 seconds.

If one of the switches is misadjusted or shorted internally, or there is a short in the circuit, the security
system will not arm. As long as the control unit continues to receive a ground signal (0 volts), it senses that
the vehicle is not closed and locked, and the system will not arm. A switch that is slightly misadjusted can
cause the alarm to sound for no apparent reason. In this case, a significant change in outside air temperature,
the vibration of a passing truck, or someone bumping into the vehicle could cause the alarm to sound. There
is no glass breakage or motion detector feature.

If anything is opened or improperly unlocked after the system is armed, the control unit receives a ground
signal from that switch, and the 1-5 volts reference drops to 0 volts. If the integrated audio-HVAC display
module is disconnected, the input loses its ground, and the input voltage goes to 1-5 volts. The system
sounds the alarm when any of these occur:

 A door or the trunk is forced open


 A door is unlocked without using the key or the remote transmitter
 The hood is opened (EX, EXL, LX-V6, Canada LX, '06-07 models Canada SE)
 The audio-HVAC display module is disconnected (EX, EXL, LX-V6, '06-07 models USA SE, Canada
SE-V6)
 The remote panic is operated

When the system sounds the alarm, the horns sound and the exterior lights flash for 2 minutes. The alarm
can be stopped at any time by unlocking the driver's door with the key or by pressing any button on the
remote transmitter.

PANIC MODE

The panic mode sounds the alarm in order to attract attention. When the PANIC button on the remote
transmitter is pressed and held for 2 seconds, the alarm sounds and the exterior lights flash for about 20
seconds.

The panic mode can be cancelled at anytime by pressing any button on the remote transmitter or by turning
the ignition switch ON (II). The panic mode will not function if the ignition switch is ON (II).

KEYLESS ENTRY SYSTEM

The keyless entry system is integrated with the multiplex integrated control unit. The MICS receives LOCK,
UNLOCK and PANIC signals from the door multiplex control unit (keyless receiver).

The keyless entry system allows you to lock and unlock the vehicle with the remote transmitter. When you
press the LOCK button, all doors lock. When you press the UNLOCK button once, only the driver's door
unlocks. The other doors will unlock when you press the button a second time. The doors will not lock with
the remote transmitter if a door is not fully closed, or if the key is in the ignition switch.

If the UNLOCK button is pressed, released, then pressed and held, the windows will begin to open. The
windows stop if the button is released. See power windows for more information and troubleshooting.

When the switch for the ceiling light is in the center position, it will come on when the UNLOCK button is
pressed. If a door is not opened, the light will go off in about 30 seconds, and the doors will relock. If the
doors are locked with the remote transmitter within 30 seconds, the light will go off immediately.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW

The audio unit acts as the "processor" for all audio functions. Selection of the audio functions can be done
from the front panel, the audio remote (on steering wheel), or by using the navigation voice control system.
The audio display provides the current front and rear audio status. For vehicles with the navigation option,
additional audio information is available by touching the audio button. (See the owner's manual for more
details.)

Each audio component passes its audio signal to the audio unit. In addition it communicates with the audio
unit via the GA-Net bus. Any open connection in this circuit will cause audio and navigation functions to
appear inoperative.

The 6CD changer output can be directed to the audio unit.

The XM can be output to the audio unit.

SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING
POOR RADIO RECEPTION OR INTERFERENCE

NOTE: Check the radio reception in an open area. Poor reception/interference can
be caused by the following:

 The radio station is far away.


 A tall building, a mountain, or high-voltage power line is nearby.

1. Check if each radio station can be received normally. Compare the radio reception/interference to

Do this test to check for electrical noise being induced into the audio system.

NOTE: Electrical noise may be caused by outside sources that cannot be filtered by
the audio system. Make sure you remove cell phones and/or turn off any
aftermarket devices before beginning this test.

1. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit.
2. Play track No. 4 (digital zero) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level.
3. Operate any electrical device that may causes noise from the audio system, including starting the
engine.
4. Play track No. 5 (near digital zero) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level.
5. Operate any electrical device that may causes noise from the audio system, including starting the
engine.
6. Play track No. 6 (SNR) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level.
7. Operate any electrical device that causes noise from the audio system, including starting the engine.
 If no abnormal noise is heard, go to the individual speaker test (see INDIVIDUAL SPEAKER
TEST ).
 If the noise is present only during the SNR track, replace the audio unit.

 If the noise is heard during the digital zero or near digital zero track, check for

- Poor ground at the audio unit, engine, or battery cable


- Pinched or shorted speaker wire
- Faulty audio unit
- Other faulty components causing excessive electrical noise (ignition coils, alternator,
door lock actuators, etc.). Disconnect any suspect components, and then replay the tracks
that were originally noisy. If the noise is gone, check the component's circuit and the
component.

INDIVIDUAL SPEAKER TEST

Do this test to identify a faulty speaker.

1. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit.
2. Play track No. 30 (steady 300 Hz tone) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level.
3. Listen to each speaker for poor sound, and compare it to the other speakers. Use the audio unit's fader
and balance settings to help isolate the channel with the problem.
 If the sound quality produced by a specific speaker is poor, substitute it with a known-good
speaker. If the poor sound quality continues, go to the sound balance test (see SOUND
BALANCE TEST ).
 If the sound quality is OK, go to the sound balance test (see SOUND BALANCE TEST ).

SOUND BALANCE TEST

Perform this test to identify a faulty channel or speaker.

1. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit.
2. Confirm the bass and treble are set to the center positions.
3. Play track No. 3 (pink noise) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level.
4. A "static" type sound should be heard through all speakers.
5. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit of a known-good vehicle.
6. Set the bass and treble to the center positions.
7. Play track No. 3 (pink noise) all the same level as was played in step 3.
8. Compare the sounds made by the two vehicles.
 If the sounds made by the two vehicles are very similar, go to the Frequency Sweep Test (see
FREQUENCY SWEEP ).
 If the sound does not have as much bass, go to the phase test (see PHASE TEST ).

 If the sound does not have enough "hiss," check the tweeters and their circuits.

Special Tools Required

Diagnostics CD 07AAZ-SDBA100

FREQUENCY SWEEP

Do this test to find rattles or reverberation that may cause a perception of poor sound quality.

1. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit.
2. Play track No. 13 (sweep from 500 Hz to 35 Hz) at a normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume
level.
3. Listen to each speaker for poor sound quality or reverberations caused by specific frequencies. Use
the voice-over to estimate the frequency that causes the vibration. Use the audio unit's fader and
balance settings to help isolate the channel with the problem.
 If vibrations or poor sound quality is heard, go to step 4.

 If no vibrations or poor sound quality is heard, go to sound judging (see SOUND JUDGING ).

4. Choose the appropriate track from No. 14 to 25 (small range frequency sweep) or 26 to 53 (single
frequencies) to recreate the frequency that caused the poor sound quality or vibration located in step 3;
this aids in diagnosis of the cause.

NOTE: When you get to the track that recreates the problem, select the repeat
function on the audio unit, this will help you isolate the cause.

5. Replace or insulate the source of the vibration or, if the speaker is the source of the poor sound
quality, replace it.

Diagnostics CD 07AAZ-SDBA100

SOUND JUDGING

Do this test to compare overall sound quality, imaging, and dynamics between the customer's vehicle and a
known-good vehicle. Only use a vehicle of the same model and trim level for this test.

1. In the customer's vehicle, set the bass, treble, fader, and balance settings to the customer's normal
settings that were written down before beginning the test.
2. Insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA 100) into the audio unit.
3. Play tracks No. 7 to 12 (sound quality, midland, dynamics, and imaging demonstration tracks) at a
normal, or slightly higher than normal, volume level. Write down the volume setting being used.
4. Listen to areas of the track that stand out as being either real clear or poorer than other areas of the
track.
5. In a known-good vehicle, insert the audio diagnostic CD (T/N 07AAZ-SDBA100) into the audio unit.
6. Play the tracks at the same volume level and the same bass, treble, balance, and fader settings as used
in step 3 in the customer's vehicle.
7. Listen to the same area of the track that stood out as being either real clear or poorer than other areas
of the track.
8. Compare the customer's vehicle's sound quality results the known-good vehicle's results.
 If the sound quality in the customer's vehicle is comparable to the sound quality in the known-
good vehicle, then the customer's vehicle is operating as designed.
 If the sound quality is not comparable, check these items in order.

- Loose or improperly installed speakers or other hardware that may become excited by
the vibrations generated by the speakers
- Damaged speaker(s)
- Faulty audio unit

SEEK STOP TEST

Do this test to check the performance of the audio unit's AM and FM reception. Refer to symptom
troubleshooting: no sound is heard from speakers (display is normal) (see No sound is heard from
speakers (display is normal) ) before continuing with this test.

NOTE:  Aftermarket theft-recovery devices and other aftermarket accessories


may reduce radio reception.
 Changes in cloud cover and other atmospheric conditions will affect
the ability of the audio unit to receive radio signals.

1. Park the client's vehicle in an open area away from buildings or other obstacles.
2. Park a known-good vehicle (same year, model, and trim level) next to the customer's vehicle, facing
the same direction.
3. Start the engine in the customer's vehicle, and turn on the radio.
4. Set the FM receiver to 87.7 MHz.
5. Press the "Seek +" button, and record the first station that the audio unit locks onto.

9. Press the "Seek +" button repeatedly, and write down each station that the audio unit locks onto until
the station recorded in step 8 is reached again.
10. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
11. Start the engine in the known-good vehicle, and then perform steps 4 thru 10 on the known-good
vehicle.
12. Compare the number of stations received in steps 6 and 9 in the customer's vehicle with the number of
stations received in the known-good vehicle.
 If the number of stations received is the same, or within 10 %, the audio unit's tuner
performance is OK. The problem may be atmospheric conditions, multi-path interference, or
other obstructions to the radio signal.
 If the customer's vehicle receives fewer stations by at least 10 %, go to step 2 of poor radio
reception of interference (see POOR RADIO RECEPTION OR INTERFERENCE ).

process.

1. Before replacing the gauge control module, connect the HDS to the data link connector.
2. Select GAUGES AND INDICATORS from the HDS menu display.
3. Select "ODO REWRITE" from the ADJUSTMENTS menu display, and follow the instructions on the
menu display to retrieve the ODO value.
4. Replace the gauge control module.
5. Follow the instructions on the menu display to write the new ODO value to the new gauge control
module.

OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE INDICATOR TEST

NOTE: To test the outside air temperature sensor (see OUTSIDE AIR
TEMPERATURE SENSOR TEST ).

The outside air temperature sensor for the indicator is mounted behind the front bumper. Because of this, the
temperature reading can be affected by heat reflection from the road, engine heat, and even exhaust from the
surrounding traffic. To prevent bogus readings, the display uses a specific logic as shown.

The outside air is warmer than when the ignition switch was turned OFF (ACC or LOCK) position:

 If the ignition switch was turned OFF for less than 2 hours, the displayed temperature when you turn
the ignition switch to ON (II) stays at the ignition switch-off temperature until the vehicle has gone
faster than 18 mph (30 km/h) for 30 seconds, then rises 1 degree every minute until the outside air
temperature is reached.
 If the ignition switch was turned OFF for 2 hours or more, the displayed temperature when you turn
the ignition switch to ON (II) the display immediately updates to the measured outside air
temperature.

The outside air is cooler than when the ignition switch was turned OFF (ACC or LOCK) position:

 If the ignition switch was turned OFF for less than 2 hours, the displayed temperature when you turn
the ignition switch to ON (II) is the ignition switch-off temperature.

The displayed temperature then drops 1 degree every 2 seconds until the reading matches the outside
air temperature.

 If the ignition switch was turned OFF for 2 hours or more, the displayed temperature is the measured
outside air temperature.

FORCED DISPLAY

You can also force the indicator to display the measured temperature.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.


2. Remove the No. 7 (10 A) fuse from the under-dash fuse/relay box for 60 seconds, then reinstall it.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

111

2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-07 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Gauges - Accord

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the indicator displays "- - -" for more than 2 seconds after selecting the outside air temperature display
mode, check the climate control system for DTCs, or an open in the LT BLU wire between the under-dash
fuse/relay box and the climate control unit.

CALIBRATION

NOTE: This procedure must be done after the temperature sensor stabilizes.

The outside air temperature indicator's displayed temperature can be recalibrated +/-3° to meet the
customer's expectations.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).


2. Press and hold the reset select button for 10 seconds. While you continue to hold the button, the
display will scroll through temperature settings from +/-3° to -3° as shown below.

Fig. 24: Recalibration Of Outside Air Temperature Indicator


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

3. When the desired correction value appears on the display, release the button, and the recalibrated
outside air temperature will be displayed.

Each time a desired correction valve is entered, it replaces the previous valve.

Example:

Incorrect value = 68°F (20°C)


Desired correction valve = +2°F (+1°C)
Correct valve = 70°F (21°C)
Desired correction valve = -2°F (-1°C)
Correct valve = 66°F (19°C)

NOTE: To recalibrate the display to the true temperature, remove the outside
air temperature sensor (A), but leave it connected. Submerge the
sensor and a thermometer (B) in a container of ice water (C). Select the
calibration mode as described above, then recalibrate the display to the
true temperature.

 removing the No. 7 (10 A) fuse from the under-dash fuse/relay box.

After service, reconnect power to the navigation unit, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Enter the 4-digit
anti-theft security code, then select "Done".

If the code cannot be found, use the interactive Network (iN) to look it up. You will need the serial number
from the navigation unit in the trunk. It is on a label on the underside of the unit. Alternatively, you can view
the serial number in the "Navi ECU" diagnostic screen (see NAVI ECU ).

When replacing the navigation unit, be sure to give the customer the new anti-theft security code.

SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS

Certain circumstances and system limitations will result in occasional vehicle positioning errors. Some
customers may think this indicates a problem with the navigation system when, in fact, the system is normal.
Keep the following items in mind when interviewing customers about symptoms of the navigation system.

SELF-LNERTIAL NAVIGATION LIMITATIONS

The limitations of the self-inertial portion of the navigation system (the yaw rate sensor and the vehicle
speed signal) can cause some discrepancies between the vehicle's actual position and the indicated vehicle
position (GPS vehicle position).

The following circumstances may cause vehicle positioning errors:

 Moving the vehicle with the engine stopped and the vehicle stopped, such as by ferry or tow truck, or
if the vehicle is spun on a turn table.
 Tire slippage, changes in tire rolling diameters, and some driving situations may cause discrepancies
in travel distances. Examples of this include:
- Continuous tire slippage on a slippery surface
- Driving with snow chains mounted
- Abnormal tire pressure
- Incorrect tire size
- Frequent lane changes across a wide highway
- Continuous driving on a straight or gently curving highway
- Very bumpy roads
 Tolerances in the system and map inaccuracies sometimes limit how precisely the vehicle position is
indicated. Examples of this include:
- Driving on roads not shown on the map (map matching is not possible)
- Driving on a road that winds in one direction, such as a loop bridge, an interchange, or a spiral
parking garage
- Driving on a road with a series of sharp hair-pin turns
- Driving near a gradual highway exit or transition
- Driving on one of two close parallel roads
- Making many 90 degree turns

GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM (GPS) LIMITATIONS

The GPS cannot detect the vehicle's position during the following instances:

 For the first 5 to 10 minutes after reconnecting the battery (This can take as long as 45 minutes).
 When the satellite signals are blocked by tall buildings, mountains, tunnels, large trees, inside parking
structures or large trucks.
 When the GPS antenna is blocked by metallic window tinting or by an object placed above it in the
vehicle. The GPS antenna requires a clear unobstructed view of the sky.
 When there is no satellite signal output (Signal output is sometimes stopped for satellite servicing).
 When the satellite signals are blocked by the operation of some electronic aftermarket accessories
including, but not limited to non-OEM in-dash entertainment units (radio, CD players/changers, radar
detectors and theft recovery systems), and cellphones placed near the navigation system.

The accuracy of GPS is reduced during these instances:

 Metallic window tinting above the GPS antenna.


 When only two satellite signals can be received (Three satellite signals are required for accurate
positioning).
 When the satellite control centers are experiencing problems.
 When driving near high tension power lines.
 When the satellite signals are blocked by the operation of some electronic aftermarket accessories
including, but not limited to non-OEM in-dash entertainment units (radio, CD players/changers, radar
detectors and theft recovery systems), and cellphones placed near the navigation system.

MUTING LOGIC

Whenever the navigation system is giving guidance all the front speakers are muted. When the voice control
system is being used, all of the speakers are muted.

LCD DISPLAY UNIT LIMITATIONS

 In cold temperatures, the display may stay dark for the first 2 or 3 minutes until it warms up.
 When the display is too hot because of direct summer sunlight, it will remain dark until the
temperature drops (You may see an error message displayed stating this fact).
 When the humidity is high and the interior temperature is low, the display may appear cloudy. The
display will clear up after some use.
 Fingerprints on the touch panel may sometimes be noticeable because of the panel's low-reflection
coating. Clean the screen with a soft, damp cloth. You may use a mild cleaner intended for eye glasses
or computer screens. To avoid scratching the panel, do not rub too hard, or use abrasive cleaners or
shop towels.
 The touch panel is an infrared system, so there is no need to press hard. If a touch switch does not
function immediately, shift your finger slightly, and touch again.

NOTE: Input may be affected by direct sunlight.

SYMPTOM DUPLICATION

2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-05 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Navigation System - Accord

 When the symptom can be duplicated, verify that it is not a characteristic of the system. Review the
navigation manual and compare it to a known-good vehicle (with the same software and database),
under the same conditions. If not the same, follow the self-diagnostic procedures and the appropriate
troubleshooting procedures.
 When the symptom does not reappear or only reappears intermittently, ask the customer about the
conditions when the symptom occurred.
- Ask the customer to demonstrate the problem.
- Try to establish possible user error or misunderstanding of the system.
- Try to establish if outside interference may have been the cause.
- Try to duplicate the symptom under the same conditions the customer was experiencing.
- Vibration, temperature extremes, and moisture (dew, humidity) are factors that are difficult to
duplicate.
- Inspect the vehicle for after-market electronic devices (vehicle locators, amps, radar detectors,
etc) that may be hidden.

SERVICE PRECAUTIONS

 If the navigation unit needs to be replaced, inform the customer that personal information in the
navigation system will be lost. If possible, have the customer record their personal information before
the unit is replaced.
 Before disconnecting the battery, make sure you have the anti-theft codes for the radio and the
navigation system, and write down the XM radio channel presets. Also obtain any PGM-FI or
transmission DTCs and freeze frame date (which will be lost when the PCM loses power).
 When the battery is disconnected, the internal GPS clock is reset to "0:00". The clock will reset to the
correct time after the system finishes GPS initialization.
 After reconnecting the battery, you have to wait to get the initial signal from the satellite. It will take
from 10 to 45 minutes.
 Before returning the vehicle to the customer, enter the radio and navigation anti-theft security code,
then enter the customer's XM radio channel presets, and set the clock.

SYSTEM INITIALIZATION

If for any reason, you lose power to the navigation system (like the battery was disconnected). The
navigation system will require initialization. Once completed, your system will be ready to use.

This initialization requires the following:

 Entry of the 4-digit anti-theft security code to "unlock" the system


 GPS initialization (may not be needed depending of the length of time the system was without power)
 Map matching to align the GPS to a location on the map

ENTERING SECURITY CODE

The navigation system and audio unit have a coded theft protection circuit. Be sure to get the customer's
anti-theft security codes number before;

 disconnecting the battery

 disconnecting the navigation unit 8P connector


 removing the No. 7 (10 A) fuse from the under-dash fuse/relay box

After service, reconnect power to the navigation unit, and turn the ignition switch ON (II). Enter the 4-digit
anti-theft security code, then select "Done".

When replacing the navigation unit or audio unit, be sure to give the customer the new anti-theft security
code.

GPS INITIALIZATION

Depending on the length of time the battery was disconnected, your system may require GPS initialization.
If it does, the following screen appears:

Fig. 3: Identifying GPS Initialization (1 Of 2)


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

If this procedure is not necessary the system proceeds directly to the Disclaimer screen. During
initialization, the system searches for all available GPS satellites, and obtains their orbital information.
During this procedure the vehicle should be out in the open with a clear view of the sky.

If the navigation system finds the satellites properly, this box clears, and changes to the Disclaimer screen. If
within 10 minutes the system fails to locate a sufficient number of satellites to locate your position, the
following screen appears.

Fig. 4: Identifying GPS Initialization (2 Of 2)


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

If this is displayed, turn off the engine, then restart the vehicle. If you now see the Disclaimer screen, the
GPS initialization is complete.

NOTE:  The average acquiring time is less than 10 minutes, but it can take as
long as 45 minutes.
 If the system is still unable to acquire a signal, follow the instructions
on the screen. If this screen appears again, go to troubleshooting for
the GPS icon is white (see GPS ICON IS WHITE, OR NOT SHOWN ).

MAP MATCHING

This part of the initialization matches the GPS coordinates with a road on the map screen. To perform this
part of the procedure, ensure that the navigation system is displaying a map, and drive the vehicle on a
mapped road shown on the map screen. Do not enter a destination at this time. When the name of the current
road you are driving on, appears at the bottom of the screen, the entire procedure is complete. Your system
is now ready to use.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW

The navigation system is a highly-sophisticated, hybrid locating system that uses satellites and a map
database to show you where you are and to help guide you to a desired destination.

The navigation system receives signals from the global positioning system (GPS), a network of 24 satellites
in orbit around the earth. By receiving signals from several of these satellites, the navigation system can
determine the latitude, longitude elevation of the vehicle. In addition, signals from the system's yaw rate
sensor and the ECM/PCM (vehicle speed pulse) enable the system to keep track of the vehicle's direction
and speed of travel.

This hybrid system has advantages over a system that is either entirely self-contained or one that relies
totally on the GPS. For example, the self-contained portion of the system can keep track of vehicle position
111
2 августа 2011 г. 14:58:11 Page 10 © 2006 Mitchell Repair Information Company, LLC.
2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-05 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Navigation System - Accord

even when satellite signals cannot be received. When the navigation system is on, the GPS can keep track of
the vehicle position even when the vehicle is transported by ferry.

The navigation system applies all location, direction, and speed information to maps and calculates a route
to the destination entered. As you drive to that destination, the system provides both visual and audio
guidance.

This navigation system also has voice recognition that allows voice control of most of the navigation
functions. The Talk and BACK buttons on the steering wheel activate the voice control. The voice control
also allows control of the audio and climate control.

The navigation system provides a trip computer function. The fuel economy display is calculated by data
provided by the ECM/PCM. The ECM/PCM provides fuel pulses via the F-CAN bus, and a dedicated speed
signal. Trip computer screen data is approximate and will not agree with odometer or the customer's actual
fuel consumed.

The illumination signal is used by the navigation unit to automatically switch the display between Night and
Day brightness modes when Display is set to Auto. When the instrument panel brightness control is set to
full brightness, the navigation system stays in the Day mode, even with the headlights on. Display unit
button illumination is supplied through the audio unit. The illumination cancel signal (dash brightness full)
is passed by the CAN bus to the navigation control unit.

The GA-NET bus provides communication between the navigation unit and the display unit. This bus also
links the components in the audio-HVAC display module. The bus is used to pass button and touch-screen
commands to the navigation unit. In addition, muting and voice control commands are sent to the display
unit and the audio and climate control systems for processing. The audio unit uses the bus to control the
XM-receiver or other accessories.

Charge Signal

The PCM sends a charge signal to the navigation unit via F-CAN. A thermister inside the navigation unit
monitors the units internal temperature. This information combined with charge signal determines the
control units internal cooling fan operation.

Fuel Use and Level Data

The navigation unit monitors the ECM/PCM fuel usage and tank level data via the F-CAN bus. The
navigation system combines this information, the vehicle speed signal, GPS, and the map data for trip
computer calculations.

Yaw Rate Sensor

The yaw rate sensor (located in the navigation unit) detects the direction change (angular speed) of the
vehicle. The sensor is an oscillation gyro built into the navigation unit.

Sensor Element Structure

The sensor element is shaped like a tuning fork, and it consists of the piezoelectric parts, the metal block,
and the support pin. There are four piezoelectric parts: one to drive the oscillators, one to monitor and
maintain the oscillation at a regular frequency, and two to detect angular velocity. The two oscillators, which
have a 90-degree twist in the center, are connected at the bottom by the metal block and supported by the
support pin. A detection piezoelectric part is attached to the top of each oscillator. The driving piezoelectric
part is attached to the bottom of one oscillator, and the monitoring piezoelectric part is attached to the
bottom of the other oscillator.

Oscillation Gyro Principles

The piezoelectric parts have "electric/mechanical transfer characteristics." They bend vertically when
voltage is applied to both sides of the parts, and voltage is generated between both sides of the piezoelectoric
parts when they are bent by an external force. The oscillation gyro functions by utilizing this characteristic
of the piezoelectric parts and "Coriolis force." (Coriolis force deflects moving objects as a result of the
earth's rotation.) In the oscillation gyro, this force moves the sensor element when angular velocity is
applied.

Operation

1. The driving piezoelectric part oscillates the oscillator by repeatedly bending and returning when an
AC voltage of 6 kHz is applied to the part, The monitoring-side oscillator resonates because it is
connected to the driving-side oscillator by the metal block.
2. The monitoring piezoelectric part bends in proportion to the oscillation and outputs voltage (the
111
2 августа 2011 г. 14:58:11 Page 14 © 2006 Mitchell Repair Information Company, LLC.

2003-05 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Navigation System - Accord

monitor signal). The navigation unit control circuit controls the drive signal to stabilize the monitor
signal.
3. When the vehicle is stopped, the detecting piezoelectric parts oscillate right and left with the
oscillators, but no signal is output because the parts are not bent (no angular force).
4. When the vehicle turns to the right, the sensor element moves in a circular motion with the right
oscillator bending forward and the left oscillator bending rearward. The amount of forward/rearward
bend varies according to the angular velocity of the vehicle.
5. The detecting piezoelectric parts output voltage (the yaw rate signal) according to the amount of bend.
The amount of vehicle direction change is determined by measuring this voltage.

Global Positioning System (GPS)

The global positioning system (GPS) enables the navigation system to determine the current position of the
vehicle by utilizing the signals transmitted from the satellites in orbit around the earth. The satellites
transmit the satellite identification signal, orbit information, transmission time signal, and other information.
When the GPS receiver receives a signal from three or more satellites simultaneously, it calculates the
current position of the vehicle based on the distance to each satellite and the satellite is position in its
respective orbit.

GPS Receiver

The GPS receiver is built in the navigation unit. It calculates the vehicle position by receiving the signal
from the GPS antenna. The vehicle position and signal reception condition is transmitted from the GPS
receiver to the navigation control unit to adjust vehicle position.

Navigation Unit

The navigation unit calculates the vehicle position and guides you to the destination. The unit performs map
matching correction, GPS correction, and distance tuning. It also controls the menu functions and the DVD-
ROM drive, and interprets voice commands. With control of all these items, the navigation unit makes the
navigation picture signal, then it transmits the signal to the display unit and audio driving instructions to the
audio unit.

Calculation of Vehicle Position

The navigation unit calculates the vehicle position (the driving direction and the current position) by
receiving the directional change signals from the yaw rate sensor and the travel distance signals from the
PCMs vehicle speed pulse (VSP) signal.

Map Matching Tuning

The map matching tuning is accomplished by indicating the vehicle position on the roads on the map. The
map data transmitted from the DVD-ROM is checked against the vehicle position data, and the vehicle
position is indicated on the nearest road. Map matching tuning does not occur when the vehicle travels on a
road not shown on the map, or when the vehicle position is far away from a road on the map.

GPS Tuning

The GPS tuning is accomplished by indicating the vehicle position as the GPS's vehicle position. The
navigation unit compares its calculated vehicle position data with the GPS vehicle position data. If there is
large difference between the two, the indicated vehicle position is adjusted to the GPS vehicle position.

Distance Tuning

The distance tuning reduces the difference between the travel distance signal from the VSP and the distance
data on the map. The navigation unit compares its calculated vehicle position data with the GPS vehicle
position data. The navigation unit then decreases the tuning value when the vehicle position is always ahead
of the GPS vehicle position, and it increases the tuning value when the vehicle position is always behind the
GPS vehicle position.

Route Guidance

The navigation unit can calculate different routes to a selected destination. You have five options:

 Direct Route - Calculate a route that is the most direct.


 Easy Route - Calcute a route that minimizes the number of turns needed.
 Minimize Freeways - Calculate a route that avoids freeway travel. If that is not possible, keep the
amount of freeway travel to a minimum.
 Minimize Toll Roads - Calculate a route that avoids, or minimizes travel on toll roads.

2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-05 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT Navigation System - Accord

 Maximize Freeways - Calculate a route that uses freeways as much as possible.

Audio Guidance

The navigation unit transmits audio driving instructions before entering an intersection or passing a junction.

The audio instructions come through the audio unit to the front speakers.

NOTE: The front speakers are muted whenever the navigation system is giving
guidance commands, and all of the speakers when the voice control system
is being used.

DVD-ROM

The DVD-ROM contains the following:

 MAP data
 POI database: Restaurants, and other points of interest
 NAVI Program: The DVD contains the software for each model that uses this DVD

Audio Unit

The audio unit receives the audio driving instructions from the navigation unit and transmits the instructions
through the front speakers even when the audio system is in use. The audio unit is also a termination point in
the GA-Net bus.

Display Unit

The display unit uses liquid crystal display (LCD). The LCD is a 7-inch-diagonal, thin film transistor (TFT),
stripe type with 280,800 picture elements, The color film and fluorescent light are laid out on the back of the

 This diagnostic tests the cables connecting the navigation components. Ensure that the ignition switch
is in the ON (II) position. When the diagnostic begins, a "bong" sound is heard. The system is in a
"Detecting" mode, and is waiting for all items in white to be tested. This includes the navigation voice
control (TALK/BACK) buttons, and microphone. Press the navigation TALK button on the steering
wheel, and in a normal voice, say "testing". The Talk indicator on the screen should become green,
and the voice level indicator should move to at least the 6th bar to pass. Next, press the navigation
BACK button. This should cause the "Cancel" indicator to go green.
 If all of the communication lines connecting the system components, and the navigation
TALK/BACK buttons/microphone check out OK (all block diagram items green), then the "OK"
indicator will become green.
 If there is a problem with the system, the faulty system component item will change to red, and the
screen will show "NG" in red. Use the troubleshooting index, and other diagnostic screens to help
locate the problem.
 The indication on the screen will not change until the ignition switch is cycled. After repairing the
affected cable or system, repeat this diagnostic.

NOTE: Green boxes and green "OK" indicate that the communications lines
(cables) are intact. This diagnostic does not necessarily imply that the
individual components are functioning properly. For instance, the GPS
antenna wire may be crushed, but still show as "green". A road test, or
other diagnostic may be necessary to find the problem.

 This navigation system is designed for use in the US or Canada market.

MONITOR CHECK

Overview of display unit

 The display unit communicates with the navigation unit over its own GA-Net bus. Information is sent
to the navigation unit whenever the user activates the touch screen, or buttons. Information sent by the
navigation unit to the display unit includes commands to control the LCD back light.
 The display unit is protected by the security system by daisy-chaining the security signal through it,
and then passing the signal to the audio unit.
 The illumination input from the gauge brightness control provides back lighting for the buttons
surrounding the screen.
 The display unit also communicates with the climate control unit to set the A/C, mode, and fan speed,
and to receive the outside temperature that is displayed on the A/C-INFO screen.

These screens allow troubleshooting of the display unit. Select the item you want to troubleshoot, and follow
the diagnostic instructions.

Touch Panel

The panel touch sensing system consists of 9 horizontal and 20 vertical infrared beams. Touching the screen
blocks both a horizontal and a vertical beam. Every possible touch position is shown on this diagnostic
screen. Touching one of these areas should cause its color to reverse, and sound a "beep". If any areas of the
screen either don't respond, or respond at some other location when touched, then replace the display unit.
The "Display" test under Unit Check provides an additional method to determine if one of the infrared
sources or detectors is bad.

Display

This diagnostic performs additional checks on the communication bus between the control unit and the
display. In addition, the internal electronics and touch screen functionality are confirmed.

 When the connection is NG, first check for loose terminals at the navigation unit and the display unit
connections. Next check for an open or short in the communication line between the navigation unit
and the display unit. If the line is found to have an open or short, replace the affected shielded harness.
 If the ROM or RAM is NG, replace the display unit.
 If the touch sensor is NG, then check for zeros in the "X", or "Y" values below.
 The version represents the software version in the display.
 The "1" following the X, indicate the 20 working vertical infrared beams/receptors (from left to right).
The "1s" following the Y, indicate the 9 working horizontal beams (from top to bottom). If any one of
the "1s" is a zero, this indicates that there is a problem with one of the beams or receptors. Check all
around the inside rim of the navigation screen for dirt or anything that may be blocking a beam. If
nothing is found, replace the display unit. See the display unit diagram in the "System
Description" (see DISPLAY UNIT ) showing the infrared beam layout. Individual touch positions
can be verified by running the "Touch Panel" test under the Monitor Check.

Navi ECU

This screen looks for problem with the navigation unit. When this diagnostic is initiated, there is a delay of
up to a minute while it runs.

 "ROM (Application)", and "ROM (Loader)" are for factory use.


 If "V-RAM" or "D-RAM" is NG, then replace the navigation unit.
 If "GPS" indicates "NG (ANT)", then check the entire GPS antenna wire from the navigation unit to
the antenna. If the wire is crushed or damaged, try a known good antenna. If this diagnostic reads OK,
then order a new GPS antenna. If the diagnostic still reads NG (ANT), then replace the navigation
unit.
 "DVD ROM" represents the database version on the DVD. This information can also be found in
Setup Screen 4 by selecting System Information.
 "Serial No." should be the same as the serial number found on the underside of the navigation unit.
This number is needed to obtain the security code from the Interactive Network (IN) system.
 Mem Clr is for factory use and should not be used unless instructed by the factory.

Selecting this will erase the customer's settings, personal information, GPS orbital data, and anything
else stored in memory.

CAR STATUS

This screen is used to confirm that navigation unit is properly receiving input signals. Signals equal to (0)
are OFF, and signals equal to (1) are ON. If the value on the display does not match the actual vehicle status,
then check the wire carrying the signal.

 CHG-(OBSELETE-NOT USED) Charge indicator (Pin 3 of C-Connector)


a. OFF (0) when engine is off, or alternator is not charging
b. ON (1) when engine is running

This signal was used by the previous DVD navigation system. If CHG was off, then the screen was shut off
after 10 minutes of inactivity to minimize battery consumption.

 VSP-Vehicle Speed Pulse from ECM/PCM (Pin 6 of C-connector)


a. OFF (0) when vehicle is not moving
b. ON (1) when vehicle is moving

The VSP comes from the ECM/PCM as a dedicated signal. Internally, the navigation unit compares the
actual VP on the map against street data to adjust the pulse to speed scaling factor. As this scaling factor
becomes more accurate, the "Level" gradually increases from 0 to 10.

 BACK-Reverse indication from taillight relay (Pin 5 of C-connector)


a. OFF (0) when shift lever is in any position other than reverse
b. ON (1) when shift lever is in reverse

The Back signal is used by the navigation unit to allow the map screen to show the VP moving backwards
when in reverse. This signal is needed because the Speed Pulse has no direction indication.

 CHG (CAN)-Charge indicator from ECM/PCM using F-CAN bus (Pin 8,18 of navigation unit A-
connector)
a. OFF (0) when engine is off
b. ON (1) when engine is running

This signal is obtained off of the F-CAN bus. See DTC TROUBLESHOOTING system for
troubleshooting F-CAN. Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) for the F-CAN can be retrieved with the HDS
(Honda Diagnostic System).

 ILL-Illumination Indication

(Pin 5 of navigation unit A-connector)

a. OFF (0) when parking lights, or headlights are off


b. ON (1) when parking lights, or headlights are off

This signal is used by the navigation unit to determine whether to put the navigation screen into the Day or
Night brightness mode. (Setup screen 1)

 DVD Lid-senses if DVD door is open


a. (Close) when door is closed
b. (Open) when door is open

The navigation unit has a micro switch to detect this. If open is indicated when the door is closed, replace
the navigation unit.

 PC Card Lid-Senses if PC Card door is open


a. (Close) when door is closed
b. (Open) when door is open

The navigation unit has a micro switch to detect this. If open is indicated when the door is slid shut, then
replace the navigation unit. This slot is for insertion of PC Flash memory cards for gathering diagnostic
information. This is for factory use only.

GPS INFORMATION

This screen shows the current status of GPS reception. The circular diagram shows the current location of
the GPS satellites (yellow numbers) as they would appear in the sky. The outer circle represents the horizon
(0 degrees elevation). The middle and inner circles represents 30 and 60 degrees respectively. The very
center of the diagram (90 degrees elevation) is directly overhead. Naturally, nearby obstructions, like tall
buildings will block satellites in that direction. That is why it is necessary to be in an open area to effectively
troubleshoot GPS reception issues. The satellite numbers shown on the diagram correspond to the "PRN"
number in the "GPS Details" screen. There are always 24 "active" GPS satellites in orbit. Because satellites
fail, and have to be removed from service, spares always parked in orbit, ready to be activated. This is why
the PRN (satellite ID number) can be greater than 24.

NOTE:  To use this screen for troubleshooting, the vehicle should be outside
away from buildings, tall trees, and high-tension wires for at least 10
minutes with the engine running.
 Metallic window tinting on the rear window or after-market electronic
accessories mounted near the navigation or display units can interfere
with GPS acquisition.
 The "Number of Satellites" box shows the number of acquired satellites
(maximum of 12). It should contain 3 or more icons. If not troubleshoot for
"GPS icon is white, or not shown" (see GPS ICON IS WHITE, OR NOT
SHOWN ).
 The "Current Position" shows latitude, longitude, and elevation (in
meters). If there are less than 3 satellites, the elevation can be grossly
inaccurate.

YAW RATE

This diagnostic checks the yaw rate sensor in the control unit. This device detects when the vehicle turns,
and repositions the vehicle position icon on the map screen. For more detailed information, see the yaw rate
sensor theory of operation under "System Description" (see YAW RATE SENSOR ).

 "Sensor" indicates the voltage output from the yaw rate sensor. It should indicate about 2.500 bolts
when stopped.
 "Offset" is the reference voltage or standard within the yaw rate sensor. It also should indicate about
2.500 volts when stopped.
 A "sensor" output voltage HIGHER than the "Offset" voltage indicates that the vehicle is turning to
the right.

A "sensor" output voltage LOWER than the "Offset" voltage indicates that the vehicle is turning to the
left.

 The yaw rate offset, and sensor should both indicate about 2.500 volts when stopped. If either reads
zero, or 5.000 volts replace the navigation unit.
 The yaw rate offset and sensor should be within +/- 0.01 V of each other when stopped. The sensor
value should change relative to the offset as the car is turned while driving. If not, replace the
navigation unit.

TIRE CALIBRATE

As the vehicle moves, the navigation system receives speed pulses from the ECM/PCM. These pulses are
converted using a conversion factor to a mph speed that moves the vehicle position (VP) on the map. The
navigation system has an internal tuning function that generates and refines this factor based on actual
driving. The "Level" indicates the status of the tuning. At navigation initialization, it begins at 0, and
increases to 10 as the navigation system is used.

 The "Auto Tuning" is factory set to "ON", and should remain on.
 The "LEVEL" indicates the tuning status. If it is less than 10, the unit is still calibrating.
 The "Tire-Cal. Tuning" and "Set" should not be used. It is for factory use only.

Solar Angle

This screen is used to graphically display the sun's position as determined by GPS. The navigation system
uses the sun's angle, along with the sunlight sensor to control the driver/passenger A/C air flow. The heat
that must be removed by the A/C unit varies, depending on the angle of the sun entering the vehicle. This
screen is for factory use only, and should not be adjusted.

 The screen shows a circular diagram of the sky oriented in the direction that the vehicle is pointing.
During daylight hours a red dot is shown, representing the direction and elevation of the sun. The
outer circle represents the horizon (0 degrees elevation). The middle circle is 30 degrees, the center
circle is 60 degrees, and the very center is directly overhead (90 degrees).

KEYLESS OPERATION

By pressing the UNLOCK button of the keyless transmitter a second time and holding, the windows open.
The windows stop moving when the UNLOCK button is released. The windows do not close with the

ANTI-TRAP POWER WINDOW OPERATION

The system is composed of the power window master switch, the power window master switch and the
driver's window motor. The power window motor incorporates a pulser which generates pulses during the
motor's operation and sends the pulses to the power window control unit. As soon as the power window
master switch detects no pulses from the pulser, the control unit makes the power window motor stop and
reverse. This is to prevent pinching your hand or fingers during auto-up operation.

- DTC 61 or 62: The ABS indicator goes off automatically when the system returns to normal.
- DTC 11, 13, 15, 17, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 54, 71, or 81: The ABS indicator stays on
until the ignition switch is turned OFF whether or not the system returns to normal.
- DTC 12, 14, 16, 18, 21, 22, 23, 24, 41, 42, 43, 44, 51, 52, or 53: The ABS indicator goes off
after the ignition switch is turned OFF and then back ON (II), the vehicle is driven, and the
system is OK.

BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATOR

The brake system indicator in the gauge control module will come on under these conditions:

 Parking brake lever pulled up


 Low brake fluid in the brake master cylinder reservoir
 ABS modulator-control unit detects a problem that affects the EBD

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)

 The memory can hold any number of DTCs. However, when the same DTC is detected more than
once, the more recent DTC is written over the earlier one. Therefore, when the same problem is
detected repeatedly, it is memorized as a single DTC.
 The DTCs are indicated in the order they occurred, beginning with the most recent.
 The DTCs are memorized in the EEPROM (nonvolatile memory). Therefore, the memorized DTCs
are not cleared when the battery is disconnected, the ignition switch is turned off, or the system
returns to normal. Do the specified procedures to clear the DTCs.

SELF-DIAGNOSIS

 Self-diagnosis can be classified into two categories:


- Initial diagnosis:

Done right after the ignition switch is turned ON (II) and until the ABS indicator goes off

- Regular diagnosis:

Done right after the initial diagnosis until the ignition switch is turned OFF

 When a problem is detected by self-diagnosis, the system does the following:


- Turns the ABS indicator and possibly the brake system indicator on
- Memorizes the DTC
- Stops ABS operation

KICKBACK

The pump motor operates when the ABS modulator-control unit is functioning, and the fluid in the reservoir
is forced back to the master cylinder, causing kickback at the brake pedal.

PUMP MOTOR

 The pump motor operates when the ABS modulator-control unit is functioning.
 The ABS modulator-control unit checks the pump motor operation when the vehicle is driven the first
time after the ignition switch is turned ON (II). You may hear the motor operate at this time, but it is
normal.

HOW TO TROUBLESHOOT DTCS

The troubleshooting flowchart procedures assume that the cause of the problem is still present, and the ABS
indicator and possibly the brake system indicator are still on. Following the flowchart when the ABS
indicator does not come on can result in incorrect diagnosis. The connector illustrations show the female
terminal connectors with a single outline and the male terminal connectors with a double outline.

1. Question the customer about the conditions when the problem occurred, and try to reproduce the same
conditions for troubleshooting. Find out when the ABS indicator and possibly the brake system
indicator came on, such as during ABS control, after ABS control, when the vehicle was at a certain
speed, etc.
2. Clear the code and, test-drive the vehicle. If the code resets immediately, refer to DTC
TROUBLESHOOTING INDEX .
3. When the ABS indicator and possibly the brake system indicator does not come on during the test-
drive, but troubleshooting is done based on the DTC, check for loose connectors, poor terminal
contact, etc., before you start troubleshooting.
4. After troubleshooting, clear the DTC, and test-drive the vehicle. Make sure the ABS indicator and
possibly the brake system indicator does not come on.

HOW TO RETRIEVE DTCS

1. With the ignition switch OFF, connect the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) to the 16P data link
connector (DLC) (A) under the left side of the dashboard.

FEATURES

When the brake pedal is pressed during driving, the wheels can lock before the vehicle comes to a stop. In
such an event, the maneuverability of the vehicle is reduced if the front wheels are locked, and the stability
of the vehicle is reduced if the rear wheels are locked, creating an extremely unstable condition. The ABS
precisely controls the slip rate of the wheels to ensure maximum grip force from the tires, thereby ensuring
the maneuverability and stability of the vehicle.

The ABS calculates the slip rate of the wheels based on the vehicle speed and the wheel speed, then it
controls the brake fluid pressure to reach the target slip rate.

ABS CONTROL UNIT

Main Control

The ABS control unit detects the wheel speed based on the wheel sensor signal it received, then it calculates
the vehicle speed based on the detected wheel speed. The control unit detects the vehicle speed during
deceleration based on the rate of deceleration.

The ABS control unit calculates the slip rate of each wheel, and transmits the control signal to the modulator
unit solenoid valve when the slip rate is high.

The hydraulic control has three modes: Pressure reducing, pressure retaining, and pressure intensifying.

Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) Control

The electronic brake distribution (EBD) function helps control vehicle braking by adjusting the rear brake
force before the ABS operates. Based on wheel sensor signals, the ABS control unit uses the modulator to
control the rear brakes individually. When the rear wheel speed is less than the front wheel speed, the ABS
control unit retains the current rear brake fluid pressure by closing the inlet valve in the modulator. As the
rear wheel speed increases and approaches the front wheel speed, the control unit increases the rear brake
fluid pressure by momentarily opening the inlet valve. This whole process is repeated very rapidly. While
this is happening, there is kickback at the brake pedal.

During self-diagnosis, if the ABS control unit detects a problem that affects the EBD, it turns on the brake
system indicator and the ABS indicator.

Self-diagnosis Function

1. The ABS control unit is equipped with a CPU and a monitor IC. They check each other for problems.
2. The CPU check the system circuits.
3. The ABS control unit turns on the ABS and possibly the brake system indicator when the unit detects
a problem, and the unit stops ABS operation.
4. The self-diagnosis can be classified into these two categories:
 Initial diagnosis

 Regular diagnosis

On-board Diagnosis Function

The ABS can be diagnosed with the HDS.

The ALB Checker cannot be used with this system. For air bleeding, and checking wheel sensor signals, use
the HDS.

ABS MODULATOR

The ABS modulator consists of the inlet solenoid valve, outlet solenoid valve, reservoir, pump, and the
pump motor. The modulator reduces the caliper fluid pressure directly. It is a circulating-type modulator
because the brake fluid circulates through the caliper, reservoir, and the master cylinder. The hydraulic
control has three modes; normal braking, pressure retaining, and pressure reducing. The hydraulic circuit is
an independent four channel type, one channel for each wheel.

through the damping chamber, to the master


cylinder.
When stopping ABS operation, the pump motor is
OFF.

WHEEL SENSORS

The wheel sensors are the magnetic contactless type. The wheel sensors detect changing of magnetic
polarity on the magnetic encoder contained inside the front wheel bearings. The ABS modulator-control unit
calculates the wheel speed based on signals sent from the wheel sensor.

NOTE: The front wheel bearings are directional.

Wheel Speed and Modulator Control

Fig. 10: Identifying Wheel Speed And Modulator Control


Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

When the wheel speed drops sharply below the vehicle speed, the outlet valve opens momentarily to reduce
the caliper fluid pressure. The pump motor starts at this time. As the wheel speed is restored, the inlet valve
opens momentarily to increase the caliper fluid pressure.

1. Set the parking brake, and start the engine , then turn off the A/C switch. Allow the engine to warm up
to normal operating temperature (radiator fan comes on twice).
2. Attach a 50 mm (2 in.) piece of masking tape along the bottom of the steering wheel, and draw a
horizontal reference mark across it.
3. With the transmission M/T in Neutral position, A/T in P or N position, press and hold the brake pedal
lightly (about the same pressure needed to keep an A/T-equipped vehicle from creeping), then release
the parking brake.
4. While still holding the brake pedal, hook the end of the tape measure the brake pedal, then pull the
tape up to the steering wheel. Note the measurement between the brake pedal and the reference mark
on the steering wheel.
5. Apply steady pressure to the brake pedal for 3 minutes.
6. Watch the tape measure.
 If the measurement increases 10 mm (3/8 in.) or less, the master cylinder is OK.

 If the measurement increases more than 10 mm (3/8 in.), replace the master cylinder.

SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING
RAPID BRAKE PAD WEAR, VEHICLE VIBRATION (AFTER A LONG DRIVE), OR HIGH,
HARD BRAKE PEDAL

NOTE: Make sure that the caliper pins are installed correctly.
The upper and lower caliper pins are different. If the top and bottom caliper
pins are installed in the wrong location, it will cause uneven tire wear,
vibration, and or uneven or rapid pad wear for proper caliper pin location:
AKEBONO type (see AKEBONO Type), NISSIN type (see NISSIN Type).

1. Drive the vehicle until the brakes drag or until the pedal is high and hard. This can take 20 or more
brake pedal applications during an extended test-drive.
2. With the engine running, raise the vehicle on a lift, and spin all four wheels by hand.

Is there brake drag at any of the wheels?

YES - Go to step 3.
NO - Look for other causes of the pad wear, high pedal, or vehicle vibration.
3. Turn the engine off, pump the brake pedal to deplete the vacuum in the brake booster, and then spin
the wheels again to check for brake drag.

Is there brake drag at any of the wheels?

YES - Go to step 4.
NO - Replace the brake booster (see BRAKE BOOSTER REPLACEMENT ).
4. Without removing the brake lines, unbolt and separate the master cylinder from the booster, then spin
the wheels to check for brake drag.

Is there brake drag at any of the wheels?

YES - Go to step 5.

NO - Check the brake pedal position switch adjustment and pedal free play (see BRAKE
PEDAL AND BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SWITCH ADJUSTMENT ).
5. Loosen the hydraulic lines at the master cylinder, then spin the wheels to check for brake drag.

Is there brake drag at any of the wheels?

YES - Go to step 6.
NO - Replace the master cylinder (see MASTER CYLINDER REPLACEMENT ).
6. Loosen the bleed screws at each caliper or wheel cylinder, then spin the wheels to check for brake
drag.

Is there brake drag at any of the wheels?

YES - Disassemble and repair the caliper or wheel cylinder, on the wheel(s) with brake drag.
NO - Look for a bulging master cylinder cap seal, discolored or contaminated brake fluid in the
master cylinder, or damaged brake lines. If any of these items are damaged, replace them. If all
of these items are OK, replace the ABS modulator-control unit (see ABS MODULATOR-
CONTROL UNIT REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).

BATTERY TEST

WARNING: A battery can explode if you do not follow the proper procedure,
causing serious injury to anyone nearby. Follow all procedures
carefully and keep sparks and open flames away from the battery.

Use either a JCI or Bear ARBST tester, and follow the manufacturer's procedures. If you don't have one of
these computerized testers, follow this conventional test procedure:

1. Be sure the temperature of the electrolyte is between 70°F (21°C) and 100°F (38°C).
2. Inspect the battery case for cracks or leaks.
 If the case is damaged, replace the battery.

 If the case looks OK, go to step 3.

3. Check the indicator EYE.


 If the EYE indicates the battery is charged, go to step 4.

 If the EYE indicates a low charge, go to step 7.

4. Apply a 300 amp load for 15 seconds to remove the surface charge.
5. Wait 15 seconds, then apply a test load of 280 amps for 15 seconds.
6. Record battery voltage.
 If voltage is above 9.6 volts, the battery is OK.

 If voltage is below 9.6 volts, go to step 7.

7. Charge the battery on High (40 amps) until the EYE shows the battery is charged, plus an additional
30 minutes. If the battery charge is very low, it may be necessary to bypass the charger's polarity
protection circuitry.
 If the EYE indicates the battery is charged within three hours, the battery is OK.

 If the EYE indicates the battery is not charged within three hours, replace the battery.

FIVE-STEP TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Verify The Complaint:

Turn on all the components in the problem circuit to verify the customer complaint. Note the
symptoms. Do not begin disassembly or testing until you have narrowed down the problem area.

2. Analyze The Schematic:

Look up the schematic for the problem circuit. Determine how the circuit is supposed to work by
tracing the current paths from the power feed through the circuit components to ground. If several
circuits fail at the same time, the fuse or a ground is a likely cause.

Based on the symptoms and your understanding of the circuit operation, identify one or more possible
causes of the problem.

3. Isolate The Problem By Testing The Circuit:

Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made in step 2. Keep in mind that a logical, simple
procedure is the key to efficient troubleshooting. Test for the most likely cause of failure first. Try to
make tests at points that are easily accessible.

4. Fix The Problem:

Once the specific problem is identified, make the repair. Be sure to use proper tools and safe
procedures.

5. Make Sure The Circuit Works:

Turn on all components in the repaired circuit in all modes to make sure you've fixed the entire
problem. If the problem was a blown fuse, be sure to test all of the circuits on the fuse. Make sure no
new problems turn up and the original problem does not recur.

3. When honing is complete, thoroughly clean the engine block of all metal particles. Wash the cylinder
bores with hot soapy water, then dry and oil them immediately to prevent rusting. Never use solvent,
it will only redistribute the grit on the cylinder walls.
4. If scoring or scratches are still present in the cylinder bores after honing to the service limit, rebore the
engine block. Some light vertical scoring and scratching is acceptable if it is not deep enough to catch
your fingernail and does not run the full length of the bore.

Courtesy of AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC.

Installation (Used Belt)

1. Ensure that engine is at TDC. Align dimple on timing belt drive pulley with pointer on oil pump. See
Fig. 4. Align camshaft pulleys with pointers on back covers.
2. On 2003-05 models, apply liquid thread lock to idler pulley bolt, and loosely install idler pulley. If
auto-tensioner has extended and timing belt cannot be installed, perform new belt installation
procedure. See INSTALLATION (NEW BELT). On all other models, if auto-tensioner has extended
and timing belt cannot be installed, remove and compress auto-tensioner. Install auto-tensioner.
3. On all models, install timing belt in counterclockwise direction in the following sequence: Crankshaft
pulley, idler pulley, front camshaft pulley, water pump pulley, rear camshaft pulley and tension adjust
pulley. See Fig. 7. Ensure crankshaft and camshaft pulleys remained aligned with marks on back
cover. Tighten idler pulley bolt to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
4. Remove battery clamp bolt from back cover. Install engine mount bracket to the front of engine. If
applicable, install timing belt guide plate with concave surface facing out. Install lower cover, then
upper front and rear covers. Clean, then install crankshaft pulley. Lubricate crankshaft pulley bolt
threads and install bolt. Tighten crankshaft pulley bolt to specification. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS.
5. Rotate crankshaft about 5-6 turns clockwise to position timing belt on pulleys. Ensure crankshaft and
camshaft pulleys are aligned at TDC. Crankshaft pulley White mark should be aligned with pointer on
front cover. Remove rubber plugs from upper covers to check camshaft pulley positions.
6. If either camshaft is not at TDC, remove timing belt and readjust position. To complete installation,
reverse removal procedure. Tighten all fasteners to specification. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS. Adjust drive belts to proper tension.

7. On 2003-04 Accord and all 2005 models, perform Powertrain Control Module (PCM) reset procedure
and Crankshaft Position (CKP) pattern learn procedure. See RESET PROCEDURES.

RESET PROCEDURES
POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) RESET PROCEDURE/CLEARING DIAGNOSTIC
TROUBLE CODES

To clear codes using the Honda PGM Tester or the HDS, use the "CLEAR COMMAND". The PCM stores
data and DTCs to correct the system even when there is no electrical power (such as the No. 10 BACK UP
fuse removed or battery negative cable disconnected).

Honda PGM Tester and HDS has 3 kinds of clear commands:

 DTC Clear - This command erases all stored DTC codes and Freeze Data.
 PCM Clear - This command erases all stored DTC codes, Freeze Data and all specific data to correct
the system except CKP pattern.
 CKP Pattern Clear - This command erases only CKP pattern data. This command is for the repair of
a misfire or CKP sensor. If CKP pattern data is cleared from PCM, you must do the CKP pattern
relearn procedure by test drive. See CKP PATTERN LEARN PROCEDURE.

CKP PATTERN LEARN PROCEDURE

NOTE: Enable criteria: Engine coolant temperature must be 176°F (80°C) or higher.

1. Having cleared the CKP pattern from PCM, leave Honda PGM Tester or the HDS connected to Data
Link Connector (DLC) and turn ignition off. Turn ignition on. Wait for 30 seconds.
2. Test drive the vehicle on a level road. Decelerate (with throttle fully closed) from engine speed of
2500 RPM to 1000 RPM with A/T in "2" position.
3. Stop vehicle. DO NOT turn ignition off. Select the ALL DATA list in DATA LIST menu using
Honda PGM Tester or HDS.
4. Check status of PULSER F/B LEARN. If it is set to NOT COMPLETED, enable criteria was
probably not met. Repeat procedure from beginning. If it is set COMPLETED, go to next step.
5. Test drive the vehicle on a level road. Decelerate (with throttle fully closed) from engine speed of
5000 RPM to 3000 RPM with A/T in "2" position.
6. Stop vehicle. DO NOT turn ignition off. Select the ALL DATA list in DATA LIST menu using
Honda PGM Tester or HDS.
7. Check status of PULSER F/B LEARN (HIGH RPM). If it is set NOT COMPLETED, enable criteria
was probably not met. Repeat procedure from previous step. If it is set COMPLETED, go to next step.
8. Turn ignition off. Turn ignition on, then wait for 30 seconds. The procedure is now complete.

GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION


INTERMITTENT FAILURES

The term "intermittent failure" means a system may have had a failure, but it checks OK now. If the
malfunction 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 troubleshooting. If the MIL was on, but then went out, the
original problem may have been intermittent.

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 a 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 DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM)

If the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) has come on

1. Start the engine, and check the MIL (A).

NOTE: If the ignition switch is turned ON (II), and the engine is not started, the
MIL will stay on for 15-20 seconds (see HOW TO SET READINESS
CODES ).

2. If the MIL stays on, connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's
side of the dashboard.

Fig. 3: Connecting HDS To DLC

3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).


4. Make sure the HDS communicates with the ECM/PCM. If it doesn't, go to the DLC circuit
troubleshooting (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).
5. Check the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) and note it. Also check the freeze data/or on-board snapshot
data, and download any data found. Then refer to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting, 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 DTC, freeze data, on-board snapshot,
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.

2003-07 ENGINE PERFORMANCE Fuel And Emission System - Accord

6. If no DTCs are found, go to MIL troubleshooting (see MIL CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).

If the MIL did not stay on

If the MIL did not stay on but there is a driveability problem, do the symptom troubleshooting.

If you can't duplicate the DTC

Some of the troubleshooting requires you to reset the ECM/PCM and try to duplicate the DTC. If the
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 ECM/PCM.

HDS CLEAR COMMAND

The ECM/PCM stores various specific data to correct the system even if there is no electrical power such as
when the battery negative terminal or No. 8 Fl ECU (ECM/PCM) (15 A) fuse are disconnected. 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 this purpose. They are DTC clear, ECM/PCM reset,
and CKP pattern clear. DTC clear command erases all stored DTC codes, freeze data, readiness codes, and
on-board snapshot. This must be done with the HDS after reproducing the DTC during troubleshooting. The
ECM/PCM reset command erases all stored DTC codes, freeze data, readiness codes, on-board snapshot,
and all specific data to correct the system except CKP pattern. If the CKP pattern data in the ECM/PCM was
cleared, you must do the CKP pattern learn procedure. The CKP pattern clear command erases only CKP
pattern data. This command is for repair of a misfire or the CKP sensor.

SCAN TOOL CLEAR COMMAND

If you are using a generic scan tool to clear commands, be aware that there is only one setting for clearing
the ECM/PCM, and it clears all commands at the same time (CKP pattern learn, idle learn, readiness codes,
freeze data, on-board snapshot, and DTCs). After you clear all commands, you then need to do these
procedures, in this order: ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN
PROCEDURE ); CKP pattern learn procedure; Test-drive to set readiness codes to complete (see HOW
TO SET READINESS CODES ).

DTC CLEAR

1. Clear the DTC with the HDS while the engine is stopped.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Wait 30 seconds.
4. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and disconnect the HDS from the DLC.

ECM/PCM RESET

1. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS while the engine is stopped.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and wait 30 seconds.
4. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and disconnect the HDS from the DLC.

PROCEDURE (WITH THE HDS)

1. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the
dashboard.

Fig. 4: Connecting HDS To Data Link Connector

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).


3. Make sure the HDS communications with the ECM/PCM. If it doesn't, go to the DLC circuit
troubleshooting (see DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING ).
4. Select CRANK PATTERN in the ADJUSTMENT MENU with the HDS.
5. Select CRANK PATTERN LEARNING with HDS, and follow the screen prompts.

LEARN PROCEDURE (WITHOUT THE HDS

1. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3,000 rpm without load (in park or neutral) until the radiator
fan comes on.
2. Test-drive the vehicle on a level road:Decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) from an engine speed
of 2,500 rpm down to 1,000 rpm with A/T in 2 position, or M/T in 1st gear.

3. Repeat step 2 several times.


4. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and wait for 30 seconds.

HOW TO END A TROUBLESHOOTING SESSION (REQUIRED AFTER ANY


TROUBLESHOOTING)

1. Reset the ECM/PCM with the HDS.


2. Do the ECM/PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Disconnect the HDS from the DLC.

NOTE: The ECM/PCM is part of the immobilizer system. If you replace the
ECM/PCM, it will have a different immobilizer code. In order for the
engine to start, you must rewrite the immobilizer code with the HDS.

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 digital
multimeter.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM

The functions of the fuel and emission control systems are managed by the engine control module (ECM) on
vehicles with manual transmission, or the powertrain control module (PCM) on vehicles with automatic
transmissions.

Self-diagnosis

The ECM/PCM detects a failure of a signal from a sensor or from another control unit and stores a
Temporary DTC or a DTC. Depending on the failure, a DTC is stored in the either first or the second drive
cycle. When a DTC is stored, the ECM/PCM turns on the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) by supplying
ground to the MIL circuit.

 One Drive Cycle Detection Method

When an abnormality occurs in the signal from a sensor or from another control unit, the ECM/PCM
stores a DTC and turns on the MIL.

 Two Drive Cycle Detection Method

When an abnormality occurs in the signal from a sensor or from another control unit in the first drive
cycle, the ECM/PCM stores a Temporary DTC. The MIL does not come on at this time. If the failure
continues in the second drive cycle, the ECM/PCM stores a DTC in erasable memory and turns on the
MIL.

Fail-safe Function

When an abnormality occurs in the signal from a sensor or from another control unit, the ECM/PCM ignores
that signal, and substitutes a pre programmed value for them that allows the engine to continue running.
This causes a DTC to be stored and the MIL to comes on.

MIL Bulb Check and Readiness Code Condition

When the ignition switch is turned ON (II), the ECM/PCM supplies ground to the MIL circuit for about 15
to 20 seconds to check the bulb condition. If any readiness codes are not set to complete, the MIL flashes
five times. If all readiness codes are set to complete, the MIL goes out.

Self Shut Down (SSD) Mode

After the ignition switch is turned OFF, the ECM/PCM stays on (up to 15 minutes). If the ECM/PCM
connector is disconnected during this time, the ECM/PCM may be damaged. To cancel this mode,
disconnect the negative cable from the battery or jump the SCS line with the HDS after the ignition switch is
turned OFF.

Ignition Timing Control

The ECM/PCM contains the memory for basic ignition timing at various engine speeds and manifold
absolute pressures. It also adjusts the timing according to engine coolant temperature and intake air
temperature.

Injector Timing and Duration

The ECM/PCM contains the memory for basic discharge duration at various engine speeds and manifold
pressures. The basic discharge duration, after being read out from the memory, is further modified by signals
sent from various sensors to obtain the final discharge duration.

By monitoring long term fuel trim, the ECM/PCM detects long term malfunctions in the fuel system and
sets a diagnostic trouble code (DTC).

Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor (except '03-04 SULEV, LX-P models, and '05-07 models)

The IAT sensor is a temperature dependent resistor (thermistor). The resistance of the thermistor decreases
as the intake air temperature increases.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Indication (In relation to Readiness Codes)

The vehicle has certain "readiness codes" that are part of the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems.
If the vehicle's battery has been disconnected or gone dead, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM has been reset, these codes are reset. In some states, part of the emissions testing is to make sure
these codes are set to complete. If all of them are not set to complete, the vehicle may fail the test, or the test
cannot be finished.

To check if the readiness codes are set to complete, turn the ignition switch ON (II), but do not start the
engine. The MIL will come on for 15---20 seconds. If it then goes off, the readiness codes are complete. If it
flashes five times, one or more readiness codes are not complete. To set each code, drive the vehicle or run
the engine as described in the procedures (see HOW TO SET READINESS CODES ).

Secondary Heated Oxygen Sensor (Secondary HO2S)

The secondary HO2S detects the oxygen content in the exhaust gas downstream of the three way catalytic
converter (TWC), and sends signals to the ECM/PCM which varies the duration of fuel injection
accordingly. To stabilize its output, the sensor has an internal heater. The ECM/PCM compares the HO2S
output with the A/F sensor output to determine catalyst efficiency. The secondary HO2S is on the TWC.

VTEC/VTC

 The i-VTEC has a VTC (Variable Valve Timing Control) mechanism on the intake camshaft in
addition to the usual VTEC.

This mechanism improves fuel efficiency and reduces exhaust emissions at all levels of engine speed,
vehicle speed, and engine load.

 The VTEC mechanism changes the valve lift and timing by using more than one cam profile.
 The VTC changes the phase of the intake camshaft via oil pressure. It changes the intake valve timing
continuously.

VTC System

 The VTC system makes continuous intake valve timing changes based on operating conditions.
 Intake valve timing is optimized to allow the engine to produce maximum power.
 Cam angle is advanced to obtain the EGR effect and reduce pumping loss. The intake valve is closed
quickly to reduce the entry of the air/fuel mixture into the intake port and improve the charging effect.
 The system reduces the cam advance at idle, stabilizes combustion, and reduces engine speed.
 If a malfunction occurs, the VTC system control is disabled and the valve timing is fixed at the fully
retarded position.

FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM

Fuel Cutoff Control

During deceleration with the throttle valve closed, current to the injectors is cut off to improve fuel economy
at engine speeds over 1,000 rpm (A/T ('06-07 models): 1,200 rpm). Fuel cutoff control also occurs when the
engine speed exceeds 6,700 rpm, regardless of the position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from
over-revving. When the vehicle is stopped, the ECM/PCM cuts the fuel at engine speeds over 5,000 rpm

111

(M/T ('03-05 models: 4,200 rpm)). The engine speed of fuel cut is lower on a cold engine.

Fuel Pump Control

When the ignition is turned on, the ECM/PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) which feeds
current to the fuel pump for 2 seconds to pressurize the fuel system. With the engine running, the
ECM/PCM grounds PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) and feeds current to the fuel pump. When the
engine is not running and the ignition is on, the ECM/PCM cuts ground to PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL
PUMP) which cuts current to the fuel pump.

PGM-FI Main Relay 1 and 2

PGM-FI main relay 1 (Fl MAIN) is energized whenever the ignition switch is ON (II) to supply battery
voltage to the ECM/PCM, power to the injectors, and power for PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP).
PGM-FI main relay 2 (FUEL PUMP) is energized to supply power to the fuel pump for 2 seconds when the
ignition switch is turned ON (II), and when the engine is cranking or running.

INTAKE AIR SYSTEM

Refer to the Intake Air System Diagram to see a functional layout of the system.

FUEL CAP WARNING MESSAGE (2005-2007 MODELS)

The ECM/PCM detects whether the fuel fill cap is loose or missing under certain conditions and alerts the
driver by showing the information in the odometer/outside temperature display. If the ECM/PCM detects a
small volume leak, the MIL may come on during the second drive cycle and store a DTC.

First drive cycle

During the first drive cycle after a cold start, the ECM/PCM alerts the driver to check the fuel fill cap by
showing a "CHECK FUEL CAP" message in the odometer/outside temperature display (A), and it stores
Temporary DTC P0457 "Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Leak Detected/Fuel Cap Loose or Missing".
Tightening the fuel cap does not make the message go off immediately.

During the second drive cycle after a cold start, if the fuel fill cap is still loose or missing, the ECM/PCM
alerts the driver to check the fuel fill cap by showing a "CHECK FUEL CAP" message in the
odometer/outside temperature display as same as the first drive cycle. Tightening the fuel cap does not make
the message go off immediately.

Third drive cycle

During the third drive cycle after a cold start, if the fuel fill cap is still loose or missing, the ECM/PCM
stores DTC P0457 "Evaporative Emission (EVAP) System Leak Detected/Fuel Cap Loose or Missing". The
malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) (A) comes on, and the "CHECK FUEL CAP" message goes off.

IDLE CONTROL SYSTEM DIAGRAM ('03-05 MODELS)

The engine idle speed is controlled by the idle air control (IAC) valve:

 After the engine starts, the IAC valve opens for a certain amount of time. The amount of air is
increased to raise the idle speed.
 When the engine coolant temperature is low, the IAC valve is opened to obtain the proper fast idle
speed. The amount of bypassed air is controlled in relation to engine coolant temperature.

EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM DIAGRAM

The EGR system reduces oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions by recirculating exhaust gas through the EGR
valve and the intake manifold into the combustion chambers. The ECM/PCM memory includes the ideal
EGR valve position for varying operating conditions.

The EGR valve position sensor detects the amount of EGR valve lift and sends it to the ECM/PCM. The
ECM/PCM then compares it with the ideal lift in its memory (based on signals sent from other sensors). If
there is any difference between the two, the ECM/PCM cuts current to the EGR valve.

EVAPORATIVE EMISSION (EVAP) CONTROL DIAGRAM

The EVAP controls minimize the amount of fuel vapor escaping to the atmosphere. Vapor from the fuel
tank is temporarily stored in the EVAP canister until it can be purged from the canister into the engine and
burned.

 The EVAP canister is purged by drawing fresh air through it and into a port on the intake manifold.

The purging vacuum is controlled by the EVAP canister purge valve, which operates whenever engine
coolant temperature is above 131 °F (55 °C).

 During refueling, the fuel tank vapor control valve opens with the pressure in the fuel tank, and feeds
the fuel vapor to the EVAP canister (SULEV model).

HOW TO SET READINESS CODES


MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL) INDICATION (IN RELATION TO READINESS
CODES)

The vehicle has certain "readiness codes" that are part of the on-board diagnostics for the emissions systems.
If the vehicle's battery has been disconnected or gone dead, if the DTCs have been cleared, or if the
ECM/PCM has been reset, these readiness codes are reset. In some states, part of the emissions testing is to
make sure these codes are set to complete. If all of them are not set to complete, the vehicle may fail the
111

2003-07 ENGINE PERFORMANCE Fuel And Emission System - Accord

emission test, or the test cannot be finished.

To check if the readiness codes are set to complete, turn the ignition switch ON (II), but do not start the
engine. The MIL will come on for 15-20 seconds. If it then goes off, the readiness codes are complete. If it
flashes five times, one or more readiness codes are not set to complete. To set readiness codes from
incomplete to complete, do the procedure for the appropriate code.

To check the status of a specific DTC system, check the OBD status in the DTC MENU with the HDS (see
SUBSTITUTE THE ECM/PCM ). This screen displays the code, the current data list of the enable criteria,
and the status of the readiness testing.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

NOTE:  Do not turn the ignition switch off during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected or
when the ECM/PCM is cleared with the HDS.
 Low ambient temperatures or excessive stop-and-go traffic may
increase the drive time needed to switch the readiness code from
incomplete to complete.
 The readiness code will not switch to complete until all the enable
criteria are met.
 If a fault in the secondary HO2S system caused the MIL to come on, the
readiness code cannot be set to complete until you correct the fault.

Enable Criteria

 ECT at 158°F (70°C) or more.


 Intake air temperature (IAT) at -13°F (-25°C) or higher.
 Vehicle speed sensor (VSS) reads more than 3 mph (5 km/h).

Procedure

1. Connect the HDS to the vehicle's data link connector (DLC), and bring up the READINESS CODEs
screen for Catalyst in the DTCs MENU.
2. Start the engine.
3. Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions with short periods of steady cruise. After about 5
miles (8 km), the readiness code should switch to completed.
4. If the readiness code is still not set to complete, check for a Temporary DTC with the HDS. If there is
no DTC, one or more of the enable criteria were probably not met; repeat the procedure.

EVAPORATIVE EMISSION (EVAP) CONTROL SYSTEM MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

NOTE: All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected or when
the ECM/PCM is cleared with the HDS.

Enable Criteria

 Battery voltage is higher than 10.5 V.


111

 Engine at idle.
 ECT sensor between 176°F (80°C) and 212°F (100°C).
 MAP sensor less than 46.6 kPa (14 in.Hg, 350 mmHg).
 Vehicle speed 0 mph (0 km/h).
 IAT sensor between 32°F (0°C) and 212°F (100°C).

Procedure

1. Connect the HDS to the vehicle's data link connector (DLC).


2. Start the engine.
3. Select EVAP TEST in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS, then select the FUNCTION TEST in
the EVAP TEST MENU.
 If the functions are normal, readiness is complete.

 If the functions are not normal, go to the next step.

4. If the readiness code is still not set to complete, check for a temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, one
or more of the enable criteria were probably not met; repeat the procedure.

AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

NOTE:  Do not turn the ignition switch off during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected or
when the ECM/PCM is cleared with the HDS.

Enable Criteria

ECT at 158°F (70°C) or more.

Procedure

1. Start the engine.


2. Test-drive the vehicle under stop-and-go conditions with short periods of steady cruise. During the
drive, decelerate (with the throttle fully closed) for 5 seconds. After about 3.5 miles (5.6 km), the
readiness code should switch from incomplete to complete.
3. Check the readiness codes screen for the Air Fuel Ratio (A/F) Sensor in the DTCs MENU with the
HDS.
 If the screen shows complete, readiness is complete.

 If the screen shows not complete, go to the next step.

4. Check for a Temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, the enable criteria was probably not met. Select the
DATA LIST Menu. Check the ECT in the ALL DATA LIST with the HDS. If the ECT is lower than
158°F (70°C), run the engine until it is higher than 158°F (70°C), then repeat the procedure.

AIR FUEL RATIO (A/F) SENSOR HEATER MONITOR READINESS CODE

NOTE: All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected or when
the ECM/PCM is cleared with the HDS.

2003-07 ENGINE PERFORMANCE Fuel And Emission System - Accord

Procedure

1. Start the engine, and let it idle for 1 minute. The readiness code should switch from incomplete to
complete.
2. If the readiness code is still not set to complete, check for a temporary DTC. If there is no DTC, repeat
the procedure.

MISFIRE MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

 This readiness code is always set to available because misfiring is continuously monitored.
 Monitoring pauses, and the misfire counter resets, if the vehicle is driven over a rough road.
 Monitoring also pauses, and the misfire counter holds at its current value, if the throttle position
changes more than a predetermined value, or if driving conditions fall outside the range of any related
enable criteria.

FUEL SYSTEM MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

 This readiness code is always set to available because the fuel system is continuously monitored
during closed loop operation.
 Monitoring pauses when the catalytic converter, EVAP control system, and A/F sensor monitors are
active.
 Monitoring also pauses when any related enable criteria are not being met. Monitoring resumes when
the enable criteria is again being met.

COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

This readiness code is always set to available because the comprehensive component monitor is
continuously running whenever the engine is cranking or running.

EGR MONITOR AND READINESS CODE

NOTE:  Do not turn the ignition switch off during the procedure.
 All readiness codes are cleared when the battery is disconnected or
when the ECM/PCM is cleared with the HDS.

Enable Criteria

ECT at 176°F (80°C) or more.

Procedure

1. Connect the HDS to the vehicle's data link connector (DLC).


2. Start the engine.
3. Drive at a steady speed with the A/T in D or M/T in 4th gear, 50-62 mph (80-100 km/h) or above for
more than 10 seconds.
4. With the A/T in D or M/T in 4th gear, decelerate from 62 mph (100 km/h) or above by completely
releasing the throttle for at least 5 seconds. If the engine is stopped during this procedure, go to step 2
and do the procedure again.

NOTE:  Before you troubleshoot, record all freeze data and any on-board
snapshot, and review the general troubleshooting information (see
GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION .
 If the misfire is frequent enough to trigger detection of increased
emissions during two consecutive driving cycles, the MIL will come on,
and DTC P0300 (and some of the combination of P0301 through P0304)
will be stored.
 If the misfire is frequent enough to damage the catalyst, the MIL will
flash whenever the misfire occurs, and DTC P0300 (and some of the
combination of P0301 through P0304) will be stored. When the misfire
stops, the MIL will remain on.
 Troubleshoot the following DTCs first, if any of them were stored along
with the random misfire DTC(s) (Because parts can sometimes fail
without setting DTCs, you should also do a physical inspection of the
systems listed below.):

DISPLAYING SENSOR INPUTS AT THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT

The climate control unit has a mode that displays sensor inputs it receives. This mode shows you what the
climate control unit is receiving from each of the sensors, one at a time, and it can help you determine if a
sensor is faulty.

Check these items before using the sensor input display mode

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II), and check the recirculation door function; press the recirculation
button to switch from FRESH to RECIRC. The air volume and sound should change slightly.
2. Set the temperature control knob to the desired test temperature. When selecting the test temperature,
note these items:
 "LO" temperature setting will default to MAX COOL, VENT, and RECIRC.

 "HI" temperature setting will default to MAX HOT, FLOOR, and FRESH.

This vehicle uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant which does not contain chlorofluorocarbons. Pay attention
to the following service items:

 Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). They are not compatible.
 Use only the recommended polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) refrigerant oil (DENSO ND-OIL 8) designed
for the R-134a compressor. Intermixing the recommended (PAG) refrigerant oil with any other
refrigerant oil will result in compressor failure.
 All A/C system parts (compressor, discharge line, suction line, evaporator, condenser, receiver/dryer,
expansion valve, O-rings for joints) are designed for refrigerant R-134a. Do not exchange with R-12
parts.
 Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a.
 R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servicing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a
recovery/recycling/charging station that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE
J2210 to service the R-134a air conditioning systems.
 Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before
disconnecting any A/C fitting.

DUAL CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM (WITH NAVIGATION SYSTEM) 2004-2005 MODELS

This system automatically controls the temperature and the vent mode of the air direction to the driver and
passenger's side, depending on the angle of the sun, and the direction of the vehicle. It calculates information

such as date, time, longitude, and latitude from the navigation system, as well as the radiant strength of the
sun from the sunlight sensor, to determine the appropriate mode position and temperature to be directed to
each side.

In the event that the navigation system malfunctions, or when driving in areas where the navigation cannot
determine the vehicle position (non-coverage areas, tunnels, etc.), the climate control system will operate the
same as a vehicle without navigation.

A/C SERVICE TIPS AND PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:  Compressed air mixed with R-134a forms a combustible vapor.


 The vapor can burn or explode causing serious injury.
 Never use compressed air to pressure test R-134a service
equipment or vehicle air conditioning systems.

CAUTION:  Air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor can irritate your


eyes, nose, or throat.
 Be careful when connecting service equipment.
 Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.

The air conditioning system uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) refrigerant

oil, which are not compatible with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and mineral oil. Do not use R-12 refrigerant or
mineral oil in this system, and do not attempt to use R-12 servicing equipment; damage to the air
conditioning system or your servicing equipment will result. Use only service equipment that is U.L.-listed
and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove R-134a from the air conditioning system.

If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.

R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioning systems should not be pressure tested or leak tested
with compressed air.

Additional health and safety information may be obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.

 Always disconnect the negative cable from the battery whenever replacing air conditioning parts.
 Keep moisture and dirt out of the system. When disconnecting any lines, plug or cap the fittings
immediately; don't remove the caps or plugs until just before you reconnect each line.
 Before connecting any hose or line, apply a few drops of refrigerant oil to the O-ring.
 When tightening or loosening a fitting, use a second wrench to support the matching fitting.
 When discharging the system, use a R-134a refrigerant recovery/recycling/charging station; don't
release refrigerant into the atmosphere.

A/C REFRIGERANT OIL REPLACEMENT


Recommended PAG oil: DENSO ND-OIL 8

 P/N 38897-PR7-A01AH: 120 mL (4 fl.oz)


 P/N 38899-PR7-A01: 40 mL (1 1/3 fl.oz)

Add the recommended refrigerant oil in the amount listed if you replace any of the following parts.

 To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to the container once dispensed, and never mix it with
other refrigerant oils.
 Immediately after using the oil, reinstall the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture
absorption.
 Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if it gets on the paint, wash it
off immediately.

RECOMMENDED REFRIGERANT OIL


A/C condenser 25 mL (5/6 fl. oz)
Evaporator 45 mL (1 1/2 fl. oz)
Line or hose 10 mL (1/3 fl. oz)
Receiver/Dryer 10 mL (1/3 fl. oz)

This vehicle uses HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant which does not contain chlorofluorocarbons. Pay attention
to the following service items:

 Do not mix refrigerants CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). They are not compatible.
 Use only the recommended polyalkyleneglycol (PAG) refrigerant oil (DENSO ND-OIL 8) designed
for the R-134a compressor. Intermixing the recommended (PAG) refrigerant oil with any other
refrigerant oil will result in compressor failure.
 All A/C system parts (compressor, discharge line, suction line, evaporator, condenser, receiver/dryer,
expansion valve, O-rings for joints) are designed for refrigerant R-134a. Do not exchange with R-12
parts.
 Use a halogen gas leak detector designed for refrigerant R-134a.
 R-12 and R-134a refrigerant servicing equipment are not interchangeable. Use only a
recovery/recycling/charging station that is U.L.-listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE
J2210 to service the R-134a air conditioning systems.
 Always recover the refrigerant R-134a with an approved recovery/recycling/charging station before
disconnecting any A/C fitting.

NOTE: If a flat tire is replaced with the spare tire, and the flat tire is stored in the
cargo area, the low pressure indicator will stay on but the appropriate tire
indicator will go off. This prevents the customer from thinking there is a
problem with the spare tire. When the flat tire is taken out of the vehicle for
repair, the TPMS indicator will come on because the system is no longer
receiving the signal from the tire's transmitter.

NOTE: When a tire pressure sensor is replaced or tires are rotated, the sensor ID
must be memorized by the TPMS control unit. See TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR
REGISTRATION in appropriate manufacturer service information.

 Before removing any of the SRS parts (including the disconnection of the connectors), always
disconnect the SRS connector.
 Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If it is not a Honda multimeter, make sure its
output is 10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the lowest value in the ohmmeter range. A tester
with a higher output could cause accidental deployment and possible injury.
 Do not put objects on the front passenger's airbag.
 The original radio and navigation system have a coded theft protection circuit. Be sure to get the
customer's anti-theft codes and write down the frequencies for the radio's preset stations before
disconnecting the battery negative cable.
 Before returning the vehicle to the customer, enter the radio code, the navigation code, then enter the
customer's audio presets, and set the clock.

STEERING-RELATED PRECAUTIONS

Cable Reel Alignment

 Misalignment of the cable reel could cause an open in the wiring, make the SRS system remote
steering wheel controls and the horn inoperative. Center the cable reel whenever the following is
performed (see step 6 in Installation ).

GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION


DTC (DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES)

The self-diagnostic function of the SRS system allows it to locate the causes of system problems and then
store this information in memory. For easier troubleshooting, this data can be retrieved via a data link
circuit.

111
2 августа 2011 г. 16:15:52 Page 32 © 2006 Mitchell Repair Information Company, LLC.
2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-07 RESTRAINTS SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) - Accord

 When you turn the ignition switch ON (II), the SRS indicator comes on. If it goes off after 6 seconds,
the system is normal, and is not currently detecting any abnormality.
 If there is an abnormality, the system locates and defines the problem, stores this information in
memory, and turns the SRS indicator on. The data will remain in the memory even when the ignition
switch is turned off or if the battery is disconnected.
 The data is stored in memory as a diagnostic trouble code (DTC).
 DTCs are either latching or resetting depending on the malfunction. With resetting DTCs, the SRS
indicator will go off the next time the ignition switch is turned ON and the system is normal, but the
DTC is still stored. With latching DTCs the SRS indicator will not turn OFF until the malfunction is
repaired and the DTC is cleared.
 When you connect the HDS to the 16P data link connector (DLC), you can retrieve a more detailed
DTC in the Honda Systems "SRS" menu.
 After reading and recording the DTC, proceed with the troubleshooting procedure for that code.

Precautions

 Use only a digital multimeter to check the system. If it's not a Honda multimeter, make sure its output
is 10 mA (0.01 A) or less when switched to the smallest value in the ohmmeter range. A tester with a
higher output could damage the airbag circuit or cause accidental airbag deployment and possible
injury.
 Whenever the ignition switch is ON (II), or has been turned OFF for less than 3 minutes, be careful
not to bump the SRS unit; the airbags could accidentally deploy and cause damage or injuries.
 Before you remove the SRS harness, disconnect the driver's airbag connector, the front passenger's
airbag connector, both side airbag connectors, both side curtain airbag connectors, and both seat belt
tensioner connectors.
 Make sure the battery is sufficiently charged. If the battery is dead or low, measuring values won't be
correct.
 Do not touch a tester probe to the terminals in the SRS unit or harness connectors, and do not connect
the terminals with a jumper wire. Use only the backprobe set and the HDS. Backprobe spring-loaded
lock type connectors correctly.

the OPDS sensor and retry. If the OPDS/ODS system continues to fail to
initialize, replace the OPDS/ODS unit.

TROUBLESHOOTING INTERMITTENT FAILURES

If there was a malfunction, but it doesn't recur, it will be stored in the memory as an intermittent failure, and
the SRS indicator may come on depending on the malfunction detected.

After checking the DTC, troubleshoot as follows:

1. Read the DTC (see "Reading the DTC").


2. Erase the DTC memory (see "ERASING THE DTC MEMORY WITH HDS").
3. Set the parking brake, then start the engine, and let it idle.
4. The SRS indicator comes on for about 6 seconds and then go off.
5. Shake the wire harness and the connectors, take a test drive (quick acceleration, quick braking,
cornering), turn the steering wheel fully left and right, and hold it there for 5 to 10 seconds. If the
problem recurs, the SRS indicator will come on.
6. If you can't duplicate the intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time.

5. From the HDS Main Menu, select SRS, then Data List, then All Data List, then SPS.
6. Move the seat all the way forward. Using a piece of tape, mark a line on the seat's outer cover where
the front riser cover meets the seat riser. The SPS should read "NEAR."

NOTE: It takes a few seconds for the HDS to display changes, so wait about 5
seconds between each move.

Move the seat back in small increments (about 5 mm) until the SPS reads "NOT NEAR." The seat
should be approximately 25 mm from the front.

If the SPS data does not work as described above, check the driver's seat position sensor or the cover
plate for damage, and replace parts as needed.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
SRS COMPONENTS

Airbags

The SRS is a safety device which, when used with the seat belt, is designed to help protect the driver and
front passenger in a frontal impact exceeding a certain set limit. The system consists of the SRS unit,
including safing sensor and impact sensor (A), the cable reel (B), the driver's airbag (C), the front
passenger's airbag (D), side airbags (E), side curtain airbags (L), seat belt tensioners (I), front impact sensors
(J), side impact sensors (first) (F) and side impact sensors (second) (K).

Since the driver's and front passenger's airbags use the same sensors, both normally inflate at the same time.
However, it is possible for only one airbag to inflate. This can occur when the severity of a collision is at the
margin, or threshold, that the SRS unit determines whether or not the airbags will deploy. In such cases, the
seat belt will provide sufficient protection, and the supplemental protection offered by the airbag would be
minimal.

Front Passenger's Weight Sensors ('04-07 models)

The front passenger's weight sensor unit ('04-05 models) (M) is under the front passenger's seat along with
the weight sensors (N). The weight sensors detect the weight on the seat, and send the information to the
front passenger's weight sensor unit ('04-05 models) or the ODS unit ('06-07 model). If the total weight is
about 65 lbs (30 kg) or less, the front passenger's weight sensor unit or OPDS/ODS unit sends a signal to the
SRS unit to prevent the passenger's airbag from deploying. When the passenger's airbag is disabled, the
passenger airbag cutoff indicator on the center panel comes on to alert the driver that the front passenger's
airbag will not deploy in a front-end collision.

Driver's Seat Position Sensor ('04-07 models)

2003-07 RESTRAINTS SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) - Accord

The driver's seat position sensor (O) is under the driver's seat on the left side. When the driver's seat is
moved to its full forward position, the deployment of the driver's airbag is moderated to decrease its force of
impact during a front-end collision.

OPDS/ODS

The side airbag system also includes an occupant position detection system (OPDS). This system consists of
sensors (G) and a OPDS/ODS unit (H) in the front passenger's seat-back. The OPDS/ODS unit sends
occupant height and position data to the SRS unit. If the OPDS/ODS unit determines that the front passenger
is of small stature (for example, a child) or the front passenger is leaning into the side airbag deployment
path, the SRS unit will automatically disable the passenger's side airbag. The SRS unit will also disable the
airbag when the OPDS detects certain objects on the seat. When the side airbag is disabled, the side airbag
cutoff indicator on the instrument panel alerts the driver that the passenger's side airbag will not deploy in a
side impact. When the object is removed, or the passenger sits upright, the side airbag cutoff indicator will
go off after a few seconds, alerting the driver that the passenger's side airbag will deploy in a side impact.

SIDE AIRBAG CUTOFF INDICATOR/OPDS/ODS OPERATION

The indicator comes on if the front passenger's seat is occupied by a small adult or child who is leaning into
the deployment path, or an object (grocery bag, briefcase, purse, etc.) is in the seat. This indicates the
passenger's side airbag is off and will not deploy; there is no problem with the side airbag. If the passenger
sits upright or moves to another seat, or you remove the object from the seat, the light should go off. There
will be some delay between the occupant's repositioning, and when the indicator will turn on or off.

PASSENGER AIRBAG CUTOFF INDICATOR

The indicator comes on if the weight of the front passenger is 65 lbs (30 kg) or less. This indicates the
passenger's front airbag is off and will not deploy. The front airbag is shut off to reduce the chance of
airbag-caused injuries.

SRS OPERATION

The main circuit in the SRS unit senses and judges the force of impact and, if necessary, ignites the inflator
charges. If battery voltage is too low or power is disconnected due to the impact, the voltage regulator and
the back-up power circuit, respectively, will keep voltage at a constant level.

For the SRS to operate

Seat Belt Tensioners

1. A front impact sensor must activate and send electric signals to the microprocessor.
2. The microprocessor must compute the signals and send them to the tensioners.
3. The charges must ignite and deploy the tensioners.

Driver's and Front Passenger's Airbag(s)

1. A front impact sensor must activate, and send electric signals to the microprocessor.

2. The microprocessor must compute the signals, and send them to the airbag inflator(s).
3. The inflators that received signals must ignite and deploy the airbags.

Side Airbag(s)

1. Aside impact sensor must activate, and send electric signals to the microprocessor.
2. The microprocessor must compute the signals and send them to the side airbag inflator(s). However,
the microprocessor cuts off the signals to the front passenger's side airbag if the SRS unit determines
that the front passenger's head is in the deployment path of the side airbag.
3. The inflator that received the signal must ignite and deploy the side airbag.

Side Curtain Airbag(s)

1. Side impact sensors must activate, and send electrical signals to the microprocessor.
2. The microprocessor must compute the signals and send them to the side curtain airbag and side airbag
inflator(s).
3. The inflator that received the signals must ignite and deploy the side curtain airbag and side airbag at
the same time.

Self-diagnosis System

A self-diagnosis circuit is built into the SRS unit; when the ignition switch is turned ON (II), the SRS
indicator comes on and goes off after about 6 seconds if the system is operating normally.

2003-07 RESTRAINTS SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) - Accord

If the indicator does not come on, or does not go off after 6 seconds, or if it comes on while driving, it
indicates an abnormality in the system. The system must be inspected and repaired as soon as possible.

For better serviceability, the SRS unit memory stores a DTC that relates to the cause of the malfunction, and
the unit is connected to the data link connector (DLC). This information can be read with the HDS when it is
connected to the DLC (16P) (see GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION ).

NOTE: Before you disconnect the battery negative cable for troubleshooting, make
sure you have the anti-theft code for the audio and the navigation system.
Write down the audio presets.

Before scrapping any airbags, side airbags, side curtain airbags, or seat belt tensioners (including those in a
whole vehicle to be scrapped), the part(s) must be deployed. If the vehicle is still within the warranty period,
the Honda District Manager must give approval and/or special instruction before deploying the part(s). Only
after the part(s) have been deployed (as the result of vehicle collision, for example), can they be scrapped. If
the parts appear intact (not deployed), treat them with extreme caution. Follow this procedure.

DEPLOYING AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE

If an SRS equipped vehicle is to be entirely scrapped, its airbags, side airbags, side curtain airbags, and seat
belt tensioners should be deployed while still in the vehicle. These parts should not be considered as
salvageable parts and should never be installed in another vehicle.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF, then disconnect the battery negative cable, and wait at least 3 minutes.

POWER ASSIST CHECK

NOTE: This test should be done with original equipment tires and wheels at the
correct tire pressure.

1. Check the power steering fluid level (see FLUID REPLACEMENT ).


2. Start the engine, let it idle, and turn the steering wheel from lock-to-lock several times to warm up the
fluid.
3. Attach commercially available spring scale to the steering wheel. With the engine idling and the
vehicle on a clean, dry floor, pull the scale as shown and read it as soon as the tires begin to turn.
 If the scale reads no more than the specifications, the gearbox and pump are OK.

 If the scale reads more than specifications, troubleshoot the steering system (see SYMPTOM
TROUBLESHOOTING ).

are displayed as:

 PASSED: On Board Diagnosis is successfully finished.


 FAILED: On Board Diagnosis has finished but failed.
 NOT COMPLETED: The On Board Diagnosis was running but is out of the Enable conditions of the
DTC.

PCM Updating and Substitution for Testing

Special Tools Required

Honda Interface Module (HIM) EQS05A35570

Use this procedure when you have to substitute a known-good PCM in a troubleshooting procedure. Update
the PCM only if the PCM does not already have the latest software loaded.

NOTE: Do not turn the ignition switch OFF while updating the PCM. If you turn the
ignition switch OFF before completion, the PCM can be damaged.

How to Update the PCM

NOTE:  To ensure the latest program is installed, update a PCM whenever the
PCM is substituted or replaced.
 You cannot update a PCM with the program it already has. It will only
accept a new program.
 Before you update the PCM, make sure the vehicle's battery is fully
charged.
 To prevent PCM damage, do not operate any electrical system; audio
system, brakes, air conditioning, power windows, moonroof, and door
locks, during the update.
 If 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 (II) position when you disconnect the HIM
from the data link connector (DLC). This will prevent PCM damage.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II). Do not start the engine.


2. Connect the HDS or the Honda interface module (HIM) to the DLC (A) located under the left end of
the dash.

6. If the software in the PCM is the latest, disconnect the HDS or the HIM from the DLC and go back to
the procedure that you were doing.

If the software in the PCM is not the latest, do the PCM update procedure as described on the HIM
label or in the PCM update system.

NOTE: If the PCM update system requires you to cool the PCM, follow what is
shown in the screen.

7. Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see ECM/PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE ).

1. Connect the HDS to the DLC.


2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
4. Remove the PCM, and install a known-good PCM.
5. Rewrite the immobilizer code with the PCM replacement procedure in the HDS; this will allow you to
start the engine.
6. After completing your test, reinstall the original PCM and rewrite the immobilizer code with the PCM
replacement procedure in the HDS again.

How to Remove and Install the PCM

1. Pull back the carpet, and remove the driver's and passenger's center lower covers and rear vent ducts
(see DASHBOARD/STEERING HANGER BEAM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
2. Connect the HDS to the DLC.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
5. Disconnect PCM connectors.
6. Remove the two bolts, and remove the PCM.
7. Install the PCM in the reverse order of the removal.

How to End a Troubleshooting Session

This procedure must be done after any troubleshooting.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.


2. Connect the HDS to the DLC.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
4. Clear the DTC(s) on the HDS screen.
5. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
6. Start the engine in the P or N position, and warm it up to normal operating temperature (the radiator
fan comes on).
7. To verify that the problem is repaired, test-drive the vehicle for several minutes at speeds over 30 mph
(50 km/h) or in freeze data range.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

General Operation

The automatic transmission is a combination of a 3-element torque converter and triple-shaft electronically
controlled unit which provides 5 speeds forward and 1 reverse. The entire unit is positioned in line with the

engine.

Torque Converter, Gears, and Clutches

The torque converter consists of a pump, turbine, and stator assembly in a single unit. The converter housing
(pump) is connected to the engine crankshaft and turns as the engine turns. Around the outside of the torque
converter is a ring gear which meshes with the starter pinion when the engine is being started. The entire
torque converter assembly serves as a flywheel while transmitting power to the transmission mainshaft, the
transmission has three parallel shafts; the mainshaft, the countershaft, and the secondary shaft. The
mainshaft is in line with the engine crankshaft, and includes the 4th and 5th clutches, and gears for 5th, 4th,
reverse, and idler. The mainshaft reverse gear is integral with the mainshaft 4th gear. The countershaft
includes the gears for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, reverse, park, and the final drive. The final drive gear is integral
with the countershaft. The countershaft 4th gear and the countershaft reverse gear can be locked to the
countershaft providing 4th or reverse gear, depending on which way the selector is moved. The secondary
shaft includes the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd clutches, and gears for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and idler. The idler shaft is located
between the mainshaft and secondary shaft, and the idler gear transmits power between the mainshaft and
the secondary shaft. The gears on the mainshaft and the secondary shaft are in constant mesh with those on
the countershaft. When certain combinations of gears in the transmission are engaged by the clutches, power
is transmitted through the mainshaft, then to the secondary shaft to the countershaft provide drive.

Electronic Control

The electronic control system consists of the powertrain control module (PCM), sensors, and solenoid
valves. Shifting and lock-up are electronically controlled for comfortable driving under all conditions. The
PCM is located below the dashboard, under the front lower panel behind the center console.

Hydraulic Control

The valve bodies include the main valve body, the regulator valve body, and the servo body. They are bolted
to the torque converter housing. The main valve body contains the manual valve, the shift valves A, B, C,
and E, the relief valve, the lock-up control valve, the cooler check valve, the servo control valve, and the
ATF pump gears. The regulator valve body contains the regulator valve, the torque converter check valve,
lock-up shift valve, and the 1st and 3rd accumulators. The servo body contains the servo valve, the shift
valve D, accumulators for 2nd, 4th, and 5th, and shift solenoid valves for A, B, C, D, and E. Fluid from the
regulator passes through the manual valve to the various control valves. The 1st, 3rd, 5th clutches receive
fluid from their respective feed pipes, and the 2nd and the 4th clutches receive fluid from the internal
hydraulic circuit.

Shift Control Mechanism

The PCM controls to shift gears shift solenoid valves A, B, C, D, and E, and the A/T clutch pressure control
solenoid valves A, B, and C, while receiving input signals from various sensors and switches located
throughout the vehicle. The shift solenoid valves shift the positions of the shift valves to switch the port
leading hydraulic pressure to the clutch. The A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves A, B, and C
regulate their respective pressure, and pressurize to the clutches to engage it and its corresponding gear. The
pressures of the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves also apply to the shift valves to switch the port.

Lock-up Mechanism

The lock-up mechanism operates in the D position (2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th), and in D3 position (2nd and 3rd).
The pressurized fluid is drained from the back of the torque converter through a fluid passage, causing the
torque converter clutch piston to be held against the torque converter cover. As this takes place, the

2003 Honda Accord LX
2003-06 TRANSMISSION Automatic Transmission - Accord (Except Hybrid & V6)

mainshaft rotates at the same speed as the engine crankshaft. Together with the hydraulic control, the PCM
optimizes the timing and volume of the lock-up mechanism. When the shift solenoid valve E is turned on by
the PCM, shift solenoid valve E pressure switches the lock-up shift valve on and off. The A/T clutch
pressure control solenoid valve A and the lock-up control valve control the volume of the lock-up
conditions.

Gear Selection

The shift lever has seven positions; P: PARK, R: REVERSE, N: NEUTRAL, D: 1st through 5th gear ranges,
D3: 1st through 3rd gear ranges, 2: 2nd gear, and 1: 1st gear.

Automatic Transmission (A/T) Gear Position Indicator

The A/T gear position indicator in the instrument panel shows which shift lever position has been selected
without having to look down at the shift lever.

Clutches and Gears

The 5-speed automatic transmission uses hydraulically-actuated clutches to engage or disengage the
transmission gears. When hydraulic pressure is introduced into the clutch drum, the clutch piston moves.
This presses the friction discs and steel plates together, locking them so they don't slip. Power is then
transmitted through the engaged clutch pack to its hub-mounted gear. Likewise, when the hydraulic pressure
is bled from the clutch pack, the piston releases the friction discs and steel plates, and they are free to slide
past each other. This allows the gear to spin independently on its shaft, transmitting no power.

1st Clutch

The 1st clutch engages/disengages 1st gear, and is located at the middle of the secondary shaft. The 1st
clutch is joined back-to-back to the 3rd clutch. The 1st clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed

pipe within the secondary shaft.

2nd Clutch

The 2nd clutch engages/disengages 2nd gear, and is located at the end of the secondary shaft, opposite the
end cover. The 2nd clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by a circuit connected to the internal hydraulic
circuit.

The 3rd clutch engages/disengages 3rd gear, and is located at the middle of the secondary shaft. The 3rd
clutch is joined back-to-back to the 1st clutch. The 3rd clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed
pipe within the secondary shaft.

4th Clutch

The 4th clutch engages/disengages 4th gear, as well as reverse gear, and is located at the middle of the
mainshaft. The 4th clutch is joined back-to-back to the 5th clutch. The 4th clutch is supplied hydraulic
pressure by its ATF feed pipe within the mainshaft.

5th Clutch

The 5th clutch engages/disengages 5th gear, and is located at the middle of the mainshaft. The 5th clutch is
joined back-to-back to the 4th clutch. The 5th clutch is supplied hydraulic pressure by its ATF feed pipe
within the mainshaft.

Electronic Control System

Functional Diagram

The electronic control system consists of the powertrain control module (PCM), sensors, and solenoid
valves. Shifting and lock-up are electronically controlled for comfortable driving under all conditions.

The PCM receives input signals from the sensors, switches, and other control units, processes data, and
outputs signals for the engine control system and A/T control system. The A/T control system includes shift
control, grade logic control, clutch pressure control, and lock-up control.

The PCM switches the shift solenoid valves and the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves to control
shifting transmission gears and lock-up torque converter clutch.

Shift Control

The PCM instantly determines which gear should be selected by various signals sent from sensors and
switches, and it actuates the shift solenoid valves A, B, C, D, and E to control shifting.

Also, a grade logic control system has been adopted to control shifting in D and D3 positions. The PCM
compares actual driving conditions with memorized driving conditions, based on the input from the throttle
position sensor (2003-2005 models), the accelerator pedal position sensor (2006 model), the engine coolant
temperature sensor, the barometric pressure sensor, the brake pedal position switch signal, and the shift lever
position signal, to control shifting while the vehicle is ascending or descending a slope.

Grade Logic Control: Ascending Control

When the PCM determines that the vehicle is climbing a hill in D and D3 positions, the system extends the
engagement area of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears to prevent the transmission from frequently shifting between 2nd
and 3rd gears, between 3rd and 4th gears, and between 4th and 5th gears, so the vehicle can run smooth and
have more power when needed.

Shift schedules stored in the PCM between 2nd and 3rd gears, between 3rd and 4th gears, and between 4th
and 5th gears, enable it to automatically select the most suitable gear according to the magnitude of a
gradient.

Grade Logic Control: Descending Control

When the PCM determines that the vehicle is going down a hill in D and D3 positions, the shift-up speed
from 4th to 5th gear, from 3rd to 4th gear, and from 2nd to 3rd gear (when the throttle is closed) becomes
faster than the set speed for flat road driving to widen the 4th gear, 3rd gear, and 2nd gear driving area. This,
in combination with engine braking from the deceleration lock-up, achieves smooth driving when the
vehicle is descending. There are three descending modes with different 4th gear driving areas, 3rd gear
driving areas, and 2nd gear driving areas according to the magnitude of a gradient stored in the PCM. When
the vehicle is in 5th gear or 4th gear, and you are decelerating when you are applying the brakes on a steep
hill, the transmission will downshift to lower gear. When you accelerate, the transmission will then return to
a higher gear.

Clutch Pressure Control

The PCM actuates the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves A, B, and C to control the clutch
pressure. When shifting between lower and higher gears, the clutch pressure regulated by the A/T clutch
pressure control solenoid valves A, B, and C engages and disengages the clutch smoothly.

The PCM receives input signals from the various sensors and switches, performs data processing, and
outputs a current to the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves A, B, and C.

Lock-up Control

The shift solenoid valve E controls the hydraulic pressure to switch the lock-up shift valve and lock-up ON
and OFF.

The PCM actuates the shift solenoid valve E and the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A to control
the torque converter clutch lock-up. When the shift solenoid valve E is turned ON, the lock-up condition
starts.

The A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A regulates and apply the hydraulic pressure to the lock-up
control valve to control the amount of the lock-up.

The lock-up mechanism operates in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th gears in D position, and 2nd and 3rd gears in D3
position.

Hydraulic Controls

Valve Bodies

The valve body includes the main valve body, the regulator valve body, and the servo body. The ATF pump
is driven by splines on the left end of the torque converter which is attached to the engine. Fluid flows
through the regulator valve to maintain specified pressure through the main valve body to the manual valve,
directing pressure to the shift valves and to each of the clutches via the solenoid valves. The shift solenoid
valves A, B, C, D, and E are bolted on the servo body. The A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves A,
B, and C are mounted on the outside of the transmission housing.

Main Valve Body

The main valve body contains the manual valve, the shift valves A, B, C, and E, the relief valve, the lock-up
control valve, the cooler check valve, the servo control valve, and the ATF pump gears. The primary
function of the main valve body is to switch fluid pressure on and off and to control hydraulic pressure
going to the hydraulic control system.

system, while also furnishing fluid to the lubrication system and torque converter. The fluid from the ATF
pump flows through B and C. Fluid entering from B flows through the valve orifice to the A cavity. This
pressure of the A cavity pushes the regulator valve to valve spring side, and this movement of the regulator
valve uncovers the fluid port to the torque converter and the relief valve. The fluid flows out to the torque
converter and the relief valve, and the regulator valve returns under spring force. According to the level of
the hydraulic pressure through B, the position of the regulator valve changes, and the amount of fluid from
C through torque converter also changes. This operation is continued, maintaining the line pressure.

Increases in hydraulic pressure according to torque are performed by the regulator valve using stator torque
reaction. The stator shaft is splined with the stator in the torque converter, and its arm end contacts the
regulator spring cap. When the vehicle is accelerating or climbing (torque converter range), stator torque
reaction acts on the stator shaft, and the stator arm pushes the regulator spring cap in the direction of the
arrow in proportion to the reaction. The stator reaction spring compresses, and the regulator valve moves to
increase the line pressure which is regulated by the regulator valve. The line pressure reaches its maximum
when the stator torque reaction reaches its maximum.

Hydraulic Flow

Distribution of Hydraulic Pressure

As the engine turns, the ATF pump starts to operate. Automatic transmission fluid (ATF) is drawn through
the ATF strainer (filter) and discharged into the hydraulic circuit. Then, ATF flowing from the ATF pump
becomes line pressure that's regulated by the regulator valve. Torque converter pressure from the regulator
valve enters the torque converter through the lock-up shift valve, and it is discharged from the torque
converter. The torque converter check valve prevents torque converter pressure from rising.

The PCM controls the shift solenoid valves ON and OFF. The shift solenoid valve intercepts line pressure
from the ATF pump via the manual valve when the shift solenoid valve is OFF. When the shift solenoid
valve is turned ON, line pressure changes to shift solenoid valve pressure at the shift solenoid valve, then the
solenoid valve pressure flows to the shift valve. Applying shift solenoid pressure to the shift valves moves
the position of the shift valve, and switches the port of the hydraulic circuit. The PCM also controls A/T
clutch pressure control solenoid valves A, B, and C. The A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves
regulate hydraulic pressure, and apply the pressure to the clutches to engage smoothly. The clutches receive
optimum clutch pressure which is regulated by the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valves for
comfortable driving and shifting under all conditions.

Hydraulic pressure at the port is as follows:

Lock-up System

The lock-up mechanism of the torque converter clutch operates in D position (2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th), and in
D3 position (2nd and 3rd). The pressurized fluid is drained from the back of the torque converter through a
fluid passage, causing the torque converter clutch piston to be held against the torque converter cover. As
this takes place, the mainshaft rotates at the same speed as the engine crankshaft. Together with the
hydraulic control, the PCM optimizes the timing and volume of the lock-up mechanism. When the shift
solenoid valve E is turned on by the PCM, shift solenoid valve E pressure switches the lock-up shift valve
lock-up on and off. A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A and the lock-up control valve control the
amount of the lock-up conditions.

Torque Converter Clutch Lock-up ON (Engaging Torque Converter Clutch)

Fluid in the chamber between the torque converter cover and the torque converter clutch piston is drained
off, and fluid entering from the chamber between the pump and stator exerts pressure through the torque
converter clutch piston against the torque converter cover. The torque converter clutch piston engages with
the torque converter cover; the torque converter clutch lock-up is ON, and the mainshaft rotates at the same
speed as the engine.

Torque Converter Clutch Lock-up OFF (Disengaging Torque Converter Clutch)

Fluid entered from the chamber between the torque converter cover and the torque converter clutch piston
passes through the torque converter and goes out through the chambers between the turbine and the stator,
and between the pump and the stator. As a result, the torque converter clutch piston moves away from the
torque converter, and the torque converter lock-up clutch is released; torque converter clutch lock-up is
OFF.

No Lock-up

Shift solenoid valve E is turned OFF by the PCM, and shift solenoid valve E pressure (SE) is not applied to
the lock-up shift valve. The lock-up shift valve stays to the right to uncover the torque converter pressure
ports leading to the left side of the torque converter and releasing pressure from the right side of the torque
converter. Torque converter pressure (92) changes to (94) at the lock-up shift valve, and enters into the left

Partial Lock-up

As the speed of the vehicle reaches the prescribed value, shift solenoid valve E is turned ON by the PCM,
and shift solenoid valve E pressure (SE) is applied to the right side of the lock-up shift valve. The lock-up
shift valve is moved to the left side to switch the torque converter pressure (91) port, which goes to the right
side of the torque converter, and the port of torque converter pressure (94) is released from the left side of
the torque converter. Torque converter pressure (91 (flows to the right side of the torque converter to engage
the torque converter clutch. The PCM also controls the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A to
regulate A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A pressure (55) is applied to the lock-up shift valve and
lock-up control valve. The position of the lock-up control valve depends on A/T clutch pressure control

solenoid valve A pressure (55) and torque converter pressure released from the torque converter. The lock-
up control valve controls the amount of torque converter clutch lock-up until fluid between the clutch piston
and torque converter cover is fully released; the torque converter clutch is in partial lock-up condition.

NOTE: When used, "left" or "right" indicates direction on the hydraulic circuit.

Full Lock-up

When the vehicle speed increases, the PCM sends a signal to A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A
to increase A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve A pressure (55), and the lock-up control valve is
moved to the left by the increased pressure. Then converter pressure (94) from the left side of the torque
converter is completely released at the lock-up control valve, and torque converter pressure (91) engages the
torque converter clutch securely; the torque converter clutch is in full lock-up.
