Circuit Diagram
Description
An integrated control unit, located in lhe left kick panel, integrates the lunctions of the key-in/seat belt r€minder , side
marker light llasher, wiper/washer, lights-on reminder, rear window delogger timer, brake system light bulb check, and
engine oil pressure indicator flasher circuits.
NOTE: Different wires with the same color have been given a nu mber suflix to distinguish them (for example,

Engine Oil Pressure
Indicator System
Description
NOTE: Refer to page 23-152 for the circuit diagram ofthe engine oil pressure indicator flasher. and to page 23
156 for the input test of the flasher circuit.
The low engine oil pressure indicator light works in twoways. lt will flash continuously following a momentaryloss ol oil pressure, or it will go on and stay on wath a
complete loss of oil pressure.
When the engine first starts, before oil pressure rises
above 29.4 kPa (O.3 kgf/cmr, 4.3 psi), current flows
through the low engine oil pressure indicator light andthe oil pressure switch to ground. This tests the circuit.
With the engine running, voltage is applied to the Ilash-er circuit of the integrated control unit. With normal oilpressure, the oil pressure switch is open and the low en-gine oil pressure indicator light does not operate. lf the
oil pressure switch closes momentarily (more than O.5
seconds). but then opens again, terminal "YEL/RED" will
sense ground through the switch- The integrated con-trol unit will then provide and remove ground tor the low
engine oil pressure indicator light through terminal"YEL/RED". The light will flash on and off untilthe igni
tion switch is turned to "OFF".
lf engine oil pressure talls below 29.4 kPa (O.3 kgf/cmr,
4.3 psi) and does not increase, the oil pressure switchwill stay closed. The low engine oil pressure indicator light
will go on and stay on.
NOTE: Refer to page 23-130 for the engine oil pressure
switch test.

Erasing the DTC Memory
To erase the DTC(S) from the SRS unit, use a Honda
PGM tester (see the Honda PGM Tester SRS vehicle
System Supplement) or the following procedure.
1. Make sure the ignition switch is OFF.
2. Connect the SCS service connector to the MES con-
nector (2P). Do not use a jumper wlre.
MEMORY EMSESIGNAL {MESI CONNESTOR I2P)
[GRN, GBNI or IWHT, BLKI
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
The SBS indicator light comes on for about six sec-
onds and goes off. Remove the SCS service connec-
tor from the MES connector (2P) within four seconds
after the SRS indicator light went off.
The SRS indicator light comes on again. Reconnect
the scs service connector to the MES connector
(2P) within the four seconds after the SRS indicator
light comes on.
The SRS indicator light goes off. Remove the SCS
service connector from the MES connector (2P)
within four seconds.
The SRS indicator light indicates that the memory is
erased by blinking two times.
Turn the ignition switch OFF. and wait for ten sec-
onos.
Troubleshootin g Intermittent
Failures
lf the.e was a malfunction, but it doesn't recur, it will be
stored in the memory as an intermittent failure, and the
SRS indicator light comes on,
Atter chocking ths DTC, troubleshoot as follows:
1. Read the DTC (see "Reading the DTC").
2. Erase the DTC memory (see "Erasing the DTC
Memory").
3. With the shift l€ver in neutral, turn the ignition switch
ON (ll), and let the engine idle.
4. The SRS indicator light comes on for about six sec-
onds and then goes off.
