ECM ldle Learn Procedure
The idle learn procedure must be done so the ECM can
learn the engine idle characteristics.
Do the idle learn procedure whenever you do any of
these actions:. Disconnect the battery.
Replace the ECM or disconnect its connector.
Reset the ECM.
NOTE: Erasing DTCS with the Honda PGM Tester
does not require you to do the idle learn procedure.
Remove the No.6 ECU {ECM) ( 15A) fuse from the
under-hood fuse/relay box.
Remove the No.19 baftery (80A) fuse from the under-
hood fuse/relay box.
Remove PGM-FI main relay 1.
Remove any of the wires from the under-hood fuse/
retay Dox.
Disconnect any of the connectors from the under
hood fuse/relay box.
Disconnect the connector between the engine
compartment wire harness and ECM wire harness.
Disconnect the G2 terminal from the transmission
ho u srng.
Disconnectthe G'l terminal from the body.
Disconnectthe G101 terminal from the cylinder head
cover.
Procedure:
To complete the idle learn procedure, do this:
1. Make sure all electrical items (Ay'C, audio, rear
defogger, l:ghts, etc.,) are off.
2. Start the engine, and hold it at 3,000 rpm with no
load {in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on, or
until the engine coolanttemperature reaches 194"F(90'c).
3. Let the engine idle for about 5 minutes with the
throttle fully closed.
NOTE: lf the radiator fan comes on, do not include its
running time in the 5 minutes.

Fuel Line Inspection
Check the fuel system lines, hoses, and fuel filter for damage, leaks, and deterioration. Replace any damaged parts.
Make sure the connection issecure and the quick-connectfitting cover is firmly locked into place.

4. Align the quick-connect fittings with the line (A).
and align the retainer (B) locking pawls with the
connector {C) grooves. Then press the quick-
connect fittings onto the line until both retainer
pawls lock with a clicking sound.
NOTE; lf it is hard to connect, put a small amount of
new engine oil on the line end.
Connection with new retainer:
Reconnection to existing retainer:
5. lvlake sure the connection is secure and that the
pawls are firmly locked into place; check visually
and by pulling the connector.
6. Reconnectthe negative cable to the battery, and
turn the ignition switch ON (ll). The fuel pump will
run for about 2 seconds, and fuel pressure will rise
Repeat 2 or 3 times, and check that there are no
fuel leaks.
