1999 HONDA CIVIC open hood

Interlock System
Control Unit Input Test
1. Disconnect the 8P connector from the interlock con-trol unit.
2. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to besure they are all making good contact.. lf the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repairthem as necessary, and recheck the system.. lf the terminals look OK, make the followinginput tests at the connector.- lf a test indicates a problem, find and correctthe cause, then recheck the system.- lf all the input tests prove OK, substitute aknown-good control unit, and recheck the sys-tem. lf the check is OK, the control unit mustbe faulty; replace it.
NOTE: lf the shift lock solenoid clicks when theignition switch is turned ON {ll) and you step on thebrake pedal (with the shift lever in E), the shift locksystem is electronically normal; if the shift leve.cannot be shifted from E], test the Aff gear position
switch, park pin switch, and see section 14.

1. Open the hood.
2. Check the horizontal adjustment indicator.
The "0" mark on the horizontal indicator gear
should be aligned with the mark on the horizontal
indicator.
HORIZONTAL INDICATOR
Check the vertical adjustment indicator. The bubble
should be centered underneath the longest scribe
mark on the gauge.

Headlight become very hot in use; do not touch them
or any attaching hardware immediately after they
have been turnsd off.

lf either indicator is not aligned with its "0"mark as
described left column, an adjustment can be made
by using a Phillips screwdriver.
Adjust the headlights to local requirements by turn-
ing the adjusters.
After headlight replacement, it may bs necessary to
readjust the horizontal indicator gear.
. First install the headlioht, and adjust its horizon-
tal and vertical aimings according to local re-
quirements.
. Then check that the arrow on the horizontal indi-
cator gear is aligned with the mark on the hori-
zontal indicator.- lf they are not aligned, remove the screw,
adiust the indicator gear, and retighten the
screw.
NOTE: As the outer lenses are made ot an acryli-
coated, polycarbonated material, do not cover the
headlights when they are turned on.

Turn Signal/Hazard Relay Input Test
SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations, precautions, and procedures
in the SRS section {24} before performing repairs or ser-
vice.
Remove the turn signal/hazard relay from the under-
dash fuse/relay box.
Inspect the relay and fuse/relay box socket terminals
to be sure they are all making good contact.
. lf the terminals are bent, loose or corroded,
repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
. lf the terminals look OK, make the following
input tests at the fuse/relay box socket.- lf any test indicates a problem, find and cor-
rect the cause, then recheck the system.- lf all the input tests prove OK, the turn signal/
hazard relay must be faulty; replace it.
