Component Tests and General Diagnostics

How to End a Troubleshooting Session (required after any troubleshooting)

1. Reset the ECM/PCM as described.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Disconnect the scan tool or Honda PGM Tester 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 Honda PGM Tester.
