Default D4 light flashing when key is set to before starting the car.

i noticed my 92 accord d4 light blink when i have the ignition is switched to the on position. But when i start it it does not appear. It does not happen all the time only sometimes.
Is this an issue i should worry about? My car runs good, no shifting problems at all. Has anyone heard of this happening?

I have not done anything to the computer, everything is stock & I have not jumped the service connector. I don't know how to.

To read the code you need to jump the SC ( service connector) a blue plug with 2 wires located under the dash below glove box . by the kick panel..
use a paper clip, jump the wires together, turn the ignition key on and read the blinks on the instrument cluster

a longer blink = 10

a short bilnk = 1

let the pattern repeat 2 -3 times to make sure that there is only one code stored and also to make sure you are reading it correctly..

if you go the DIY section OBD trouble codes click o the link , and read ,,, also if yow scroll all the way down and there is a description of the codes your car is OBD1 codes..
