I cant remember where to jumper for ECU readouts or how to restart the ECU. Autozone doesnt have the right reader for my car. and what kind of sensor could i have blown?

Ok I remembered. I jumpered the diagnostic plug and got this.  Engine: Long-Short-Short & ABS: Long-Short-Short

OK, I think that''s the no code sequence ..... also tells us that the CEL light works.  The easiest way to reset the ecu is to pull the battery + lead and touch it to the - terminal to discharge any capacitors that may be in the system...... leave it for 10-15 minutes and plug the battery back in.

What is the code reading though?? I looked and the long one is telling there is a code or break right? Then the short ones are the readings right? So i looked up the codes i think here: http://www.troublecodes.net/honda/

I think it''''s MAP sensor ** ??? That would make sense since water got into intake ? OR is it the Faulty ECU one *-**???

ECU code 12 = EGR

Good ECU with no stored codes shines the CEL on solid.

Failed ECU supposedly shows CEL but doesnt turn it on at all when the connector is jumpered.



ABS codes...
(this is for the older system WITH ABS fluid reservoir)
First long flash & long pause arent part of a code.
Short flashes for 1st digit.
short-ish pause.
Short flashes for 2nd digit.
long pause.
Next code (or repeat 1st code).

Alright, I flushed out with Sea Foam and Drygas, it runs smoother. But I still have a limited RPM range of 5500RPM when i rev it. I just feels like it rev limits and runs rough.

Is there anything else that would cause a Limited RPM range? Like a fouled spark plug or distributor cap? Also, the EGR vac hose was just unplugged for some reason, i probably bumped it one time.

Jim:  Thanks for the code info.

Water in the oil and low oil?  Have you checked your cylinder compression to see if you have a blown head gasket?
