Alternator Short Can Cause
DTCs and Blown No. 6 Fuse

NOTE: This article applies to ’98

–02 Accord L4s.
A short to ground in the BLK/YEL alternator wire
could cause the ECM/PCM to set certain DTCs and
intermittently blow the No. 6 (15A) fuse in the
driver’s under-dash fuse/relay box.
Which DTCs set depends on whether the vehicle
is a ULEV or not. Here’s the low-down:

ULEV Models

• DTC P0141 [secondary heated oxygen sensor
(secondary HO2S) (sensor 2) heater circuit
malfunction]
• DTC P1166 (air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor
(sensor 1) heater circuit malfunction]
• DTC P1167 [air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor
(sensor 1) heater system malfunction]
• DTC P1298 [electrical load detector (ELD)
circuit high voltage]
•

A/T models only: A/T DTC P1768 (problem in
the A/T clutch pressure control solenoid valve
A circuit)

Non-ULEV Models

• DTC P0135 [primary heated oxygen sensor
(primary HO2S) (sensor 1) heater circuit
malfunction]
• DTC P0141 [secondary heated oxygen sensor
(secondary HO2S) (sensor 2) heater circuit
malfunction]
• DTC P1298 [electrical load detector (ELD)
circuit high voltage]
•

A/T models only: A/T DTC P0753 (problem in
shift solenoid valve A circuit)
• A/T models only: A/T DTC P1753 (problem in
torque converter clutch solenoid valve circuit)
To fix this problem, you need to repair the
damaged wire insulation and replace the blown

No. 6 fuse.

By taking out the ACC/Backup fuse for 30 seconds and keeping it back, P1167 resolved. Y.day I tested all fuses and could not find any fault.

As I could not able to identify the solution for code P1166, today I took my car to metro honda here, they identified that fuse missing in pass side fuse box(Still I am not sure, which one blown) they replaced the fuse and the other code got cleared, they asked me to drive for couple of days and see if that code returns... I hope it wont return... and they my car should pass state inspection...

Anyhow, I thank you all of for your help.
