2000 HONDA CIVIC Speed sensor

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.

Installation (cont'd)
Install I new set ring on the end of each driveshaft.
Install the right and left driveshafts (see section 16).
CAUTION: While instatling the drive3hafts in thedifferential, be sure not to allow dust and olher for-aign particles to enter into tho transmission.
NOTE:
. Clean the areas where the driveshafts contact thetransmission {differential} thoroughly with sol-vent or carburetor cleaner, and drv with com-
Dressed air.
. Turn the right and left steering knuckle fully out-wa.d, and slide each driveshaft into the differen-tial until you feel its set ring clip engage the sidegear.
Install the damper fork, then install the right and leftball joints to each lower arm with the castle outsand new cotter pins.
