1997 HONDA CR-V step

DTC Erasure
NOTE: This operation can also be done with the Honda PGM Tester.
1. Connect the SCS service connector to the service check connector (2P) located on the passenger's side of the center
console.
2. Press the brake oedal.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll) while keeping the brake pedal pressed. The ABS indicator goes off after two seconds.
4. After the indicator goes off, release the brake pedal. The indicator comes on after four seconds.
5. After the indicator comes on, press the brake pedal again. The indicator goes off again after four seconds (the brake
oedal is still Dressed.)
6. After the indicator goes off, release the brake pedal again.
7. After four seconds. the indicator blinks twice for 0.3 second and the DTC is erased.
8. Confirm the DTC indication, and check that the DTC was erased.
NOTE: Always maintain these steps. lf you disconnect the SCS service connector and/or fail to operate the brake pedal
according to the indicator indication, the DTC will not be erased.

b satisfied:
. The vehicle is not stopped.
. The SCS service connector is disconnected during this service.
. TheABScontrol unit receives the normal signal (which is for the ABS control unit) from a Honda PGM Tester.
. The brake pedal is not operated according to the indicator indication
. The DTC erasure is finished.

windshield installation. lf the vehicle has to be
used within the first four hours, it must be driven
. Keep the windshield dry for the first hour after
installation.
. Check that the ends of the side molding are set
under the cowl cover.
Reinstall all remaining removed parts.
NOTE:
. Install the rearview mirror rubber damper after
the adhesive has dried thoroughl,.
. Advise the customer not to do the following
things for two to three days:- Slam the doors with all the windows rolled
up.- Twist the body excess,vely {such as when

that order. Each time the connection is made. the
mode control motor should run smoothly and stop.
lf the mode control motor does not run when jump-
ing the first terminal, jump that terminal again afterjumping the other terminals. The mode control
motor is OK it it runs when jumping the first termi-
nal again.
lf the mode control motor does not run in step 3,remove it, then check the mode control linkage and
doors for smooth movement. lf they move smoothly,
reDlace the mode control motor.

Five-step Troubleshooting
1.
3.
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.
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. lf several
circuits fail at the same time, the fuse or 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.
lsolate The Problem By Testing The Circuit
Make circuit tests to check the diagnosis you made
in step 2. Keep jn mind that a logical, simple proce-
dure 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,
Fix The Problem
Once the specific problem is identified, make the
repair. Be sure to use proper tools and safe proce-
dures.
Make Sure The Circuit Works
Turn on all components in the repaired circuit in all
modes to make sure you've fixed the entire prob-
lem. lf the problem was a blown fuse, be sure to
test all of the circuits on the fuse. lvlake sure no new
problems turn up and the original problem does nol
recur.
