1999 HONDA CIVIC lock

Description
Park Mechanism
The park mechanism locks the transmission by engaging the park pawl with the park gear which is integral with the sec-ondary drive gear' The secondary drive gear engages with the secondary driven gear which engages wit-h the final drivengear.
shifting to E position causes the park cone (installed at the end of the park rod) to press the park pawl onto the park gear.Even if the end of the park pawl rides on the top of the park gear teeth, slight movement of the vehicle will cause the parkpawl and the park gear to mesh with each other completely because the park cone receives the tension from the park rodspring The park pawl receives the tension (which acts to separate the park pawl from the park gear) from the park pawlspring.

Troubleshooting Procedures
l. How To Begin Troubleshooting
When the E indicator light has been reported on, use the appropriate procedure below to diagnose and repatr theproDlem.
A. When the @ indicator light has come on:
l connect the Honda PGM Tester or an oBD ll Scan Tool to the 16P Data Link Connector (DLc) located near the leftkick panel.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll).
Check the DTC and note it. Also check and notethe freeze frame data.
Refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart andbegin troubleshooting.
INOICATORLIGHT
NOTE: SeetheOBDll Scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester user's manuals for specific operating instructions.
Some PGM-FI problems will also make the E indicator light come on. After repairing the pGM-Fl system, disconnect theBACK UP fuse (7.5 Al in the under-hood fuse/relay box for more than l0 seconds to reset the TCM or PCM memory, rnenrecheck.
NOTE: Disconnecting the BACK UP fuse also cancels the radio preset stations and the clock setting. Make note of theradio presets before removing the fuse so you can reset them,

ll. TCM Reset Plocedure
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Remove the BACK Up fuse (7.5 A) from the under-hood fuse/relay box for 10 seconds to reset the TCM or PCM.
NOTE:

lll. Final Procedut€
NOTE: This procedure must be done after any troubleshooting
'1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Reset the TcM or PCM.
3. Disconnect the OBD ll Scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester from the Data Link Connector (16P), or remove the special tool
from the Service Check Connector.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON (ll), and set the radio presets and clock setting.

Start Clutch Calibration Procedure
NOTE: When the following parts are replaced, the TCM
must memorize the feedback signal for the start clutch
control.

. Transmissionassembly
. Stan clutch assembly
. Lower valve bodv assembly
. Engine assembly or overhaul
'96 Model Only
CAUTION: Do not uso this procsdure on'97 - (X) mod-
els or you will damage the transmission. On '97 - 00
models, the TCM or PCM memorizes ths loodback sig'
nals when you drive the vehicle.
1. Engage the parking brake, and block the front
wheels securely.
2. Connect the SCS service connector to the Service
Check Connector as shown. (The Service Check
connector (2P) is located under the dash on the
passenger's side of the vehicle.)

Shift into E o|. E position. To store the engine
negative pressure in memory. Iet the engine idle in
E or E position for one minute under the follow-
ing conditions:
. With the brake pedal depressed,
. with the y'\/c switch oFF.
. With the combination light switch OFF.
. With the heater fan switch OFF.
. Turn OFF all other electrical systems
NOTE: Start step 5 within 60 seconds after the radi-
ator fan goes off.
Shift into E position, and let the engine idle for two
minutes to store the feedback signal in memory
under the same conditions as in step 5.
Connect the Honda PGM Tester. Check that the TCM
has completed the start clutch calibration.
NOTE:
. The TCM will not store the feedback signal when
the CVT fluid temperature is below 40"C (104'F)
even if the engine coolant temperature reaches
the normal operating temperature.
. Repeat these procedures until the start clutch
calibration is completed-
Disconnect the SCS service connector from the
Service Check Connector.
'97 - 00 Models
The TCM ('97 - 98 models) and PCM ('99 - 00 models)
memorize the feedback signal when you drive the
vehicle as follows:
. After warming up the engine (the radiator fan
comes onl.
. Shift into E position.
. Turn OFF all electrical systems,
. Drive the vehicle up to the speed 37 mph (60
km/h).
. After the speed reaches 37 mph (60 km/h),
release the accelerator for 5 seconds.

Road Test
NOTE: Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan com6s on).
1. Apply the parking brake and block the wheels. Start the engine, then shift to the E position while depressing the
brake pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal and release it suddenly. The engine should not stall.
2. Test in E position
Park the vehicle in a slope (approx. 16'). apply the parking brake, and shift into E position. Release the brake; the
vehicle should not move.
3. Test-drive the vehicle on a flat road in the position shown in the table. Check that the engine speeds meet the approx-imate vehicle speeds shown in the table.
NOTE: Throttle position sensor voltage represents the throttle opening. To monitor the throttle position sensor volt-age, use one of the following methods:
A. Connect the Honda PGM Tester, and go to the PGM-FI Data List.
A1For road testing on '96 - 98 models, remove the drive/s side kick panel to expose the TCM; on '99 - OO models,remove the passenger's side kick panel to expose the PCM (see page l,[-236),
Set the digital multimeter to check throttle position sensor voltage between terminals:. '96 - 98 modols: TCM 84 {+} and Aa (-) or A17 (-1.. '99 - 0O models: FCM C27 {+l and 820 (-l ot 822 l-1.

. Do not shift the lsver whils raising the engine speod.
. Be sure lo remove the pressure gauge before tosting stall speed.
. Stall speed tssts should be used tor diagnostic purposes only,
1. Engage the parking brake, and block the tront wheels.
2. Connect a tachometer to the engine, and stan the engine.
3. Make sure the A/C switch is OFF.
4. After the engine has warmed up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on), shift into E position.

Pressure Testing
. While testing, be careful of the rot8ling front wheels.
. M8k6 suro lifts, iacks, and satety stands are placed properly lsee section 11.
CAUTION:
. Before testing, be sur. the transmb3ion fluid is fillod to the propor lcvel.. Warm up the engin€ to nolmal operating tsmperature bofore testing. While t€sting, be 3ure not to allow dust and other loreign particles to onler into the transmi$ion.
1. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with safety stands (see section 1).
2. Set the parking brake. and block both rear wheels securely.
3. Allow the front wheels to rotate freely.
4. Warm up the engine (the radiator fan comes on), then stop arid connect a tachometer.
5. Connect the special tool to each inspection hole.
TOROUE: 18 N.m (1.8 kgt'm, 13 tbtfr)
GAUTION:
. Connect the oil pressuro gauge !!€curoly, bs sur6 not to allow dust and other foroign particlG3 to ontar the inspsc-tion hole.
. Whon troubleshooting by tho E indicltor light indic.t6 a problam. you mu3t u3e an oil p.essure gluge that moa,sures 4,9(X) kPa (a.90 MPa,50.0 kS cr*,771psi) or more when molsuring driv. pulley pressure and driven pullcypre33ure.
NOTE:
. D.ive pulley pressure may be above 3,430 kPa (3.i8 MPa,35.0 kgf/cmr, 498 psi) wh€n there is a transmission prob-
lem that causes the TCM or PCM to go into the fail-safe mode,. Use a commercially available oil pressure gauge that measures 4,900 kPa {4.90 MPa, 5O.O kgf/cmr, 711 psi) ormore, and the Ay'T Oil Pressure Hose, 2210 mm (07MAJ - PY4011A).
