Wheel Alignment
The suspension can be adjusted for front camber, front
toe, and rear toe. However, each of these adjustments
are related to each other. For example, when you adjust
camber, the toe will change. Therefore, you must adjust
the front wheel alignment whenever you adjust camber
or toe.
For proper inspection and adjustment of the wheel
alignment, do these checks: 1. Release the parking brake to avoid an incorrect measurement.
2. Make sure the suspension is not modified.
3. Make sure the fuel tank is full, and that the spare tire, the jack, and the tools are in place on the
vehicle.
4. Check the tire size and tire pressure.
5. Check the runout of the wheels and tires (see page 18-9). 6. Check the suspension ball joints (Hold a tire with
your hands, and move it up and down and right and
left to check for movement).
7. Before doing alignment inspections, be sure to remove all extra weight from the vehicle, and no
one should be inside the vehicle (driver or
passengers).
8. Bounce the vehicle up and down several times to stabilize the suspension.
9. Check that the steering column is set at the center tilt and telescopic position.
Use commercially available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment
(caster, camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the
equipment manufacturer’s instructions. 1. Check the caster angle.
 If the measurement is within specifications,measure the camber angle.
 If the measurement is not within specifications, check for bent or damaged suspension
components.

Problems That Are Not System Faults
How a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is Set How to Troubleshoot DTCs
18-50TPMS
General Troubleshooting Information (cont’d)
 Tire Sealant
Fluid sealant used to repair a punctured tire can
damage the tire pressure sensor mounted on each
wheel. It can prevent the system from detecting the
correct tire pressure, which sets a DTC 11, 13, 15, or
17 even t hough the system is normal.
 Cold Weather When the weather is extremely cold, about 40 °C
( 40 °F) or colder, the output of the lithium battery in
each tire pressure sensor may drop far enough that
the control unit sets a DTC for low battery voltage (31,
33, 35, or 37) even t hough the system is normal.
 Non-TPMS Wheels (Including Spare Tire) Vehicles equipped with TPMS must use wheels made
for the system. Every TPMS wheel has an exclusive
mark; do not use any other type of wheel.
When a flat tire is replaced with the spare tire, the
TPMS indicator comes on (DTC 32, 34, 36, or 38)
because the system is no longer receiving the signal
from the flat tire’s transmitter.
This is not a problem with the spare tire.
 When the system detects a problem, the TPMS control unit sets a code, but shifts to fail-safe mode,
and does not alert the driver to low tire pressures.
 If the TPMS control unit loses power, or fails, the TPMS indicator comes on, but no DTCs are set.
 The memory can hold all the DTCs that could possibly be set. However, when the same DTC is
detected more than once, the most recent one
overwrites the previous one, so only the latest DTC of
each type is stored.
 DTCs are indicated in ascending order, not in the order they occurred.
 Set DTCs are stored in the EEPROM (nonvolatile memory), and cannot be cleared by disconnecting the
battery. To clear a DTC, connect the HDS (Honda
Diagnostic System) to the data link connector (DLC),
and follow the screen prompts. DTC troubleshooting procedures assume the cause of
the problem is still present and the TPMS indicator is
still on. Do not use a troubleshooting procedure unless
the system has set the DTC listed for it.
NOTE: For DTCs 11, 13, 15, and 17 (tire low pressure),
the TPMS indicator comes on only if the DTCs are
caused by a system problem rather than low tire
pressure.
1. Ask the client to describe the conditions when the indicator came on, and try to reproduce the same
conditions for troubleshooting. Find out if the client
checked and/or adjusted tire pressures since the
indicator came on.
2. If an indicator does not come on during the test- drive, check for loose terminals, poor contact due
to damaged terminals, etc. Before you start
troubleshooting.
3. After troubleshooting, repair and clear the DTCs, and test-drive the vehicle. Make sure no indicators
come on.
4. Check for DTCs from other control units that are connected via the F-CAN. If there are DTCs that are
related to the F-CAN, the most likely cause was that
the ignition switch was turned to ON (II) with the
TPMS control unit connector disconnected. Clear
the DTCs. Check for PGM-FI and TPMS codes, and
troubleshoot those first.

8. To remove a rear drain tube (A) from the body,
remove these parts:
 Spare tire lid (see step 2 on page 20-80)
 Trunk rear trim panel (see step 4 on page 20-80)
 Trunk side trim panel (see step 6 on page 20-81)
Remove the drain valve (B) from the body hole.
Tie a string to the top end of the rear drain tube,
then pull back the trunk side trim panel and pull the
drain tube down out of the pillar. 9. Install the frame and the drain tubes in the reverse
order of removal, and note these items:
 Before installing the frame, clear the drain tubes and the drain valves using compressed air.
 When installing, tie the string left in the body during drain tube removal to the top end of the
new drain tube and pull it up into the roof.
 Check the frame seal.
 Clean the surface of the frame.
 When installing the frame, first attach the rear hooks into the body holes.
 Make sure the connectors are plugged in properly.
 When connecting the drain tubes, slide it over the frame nozzles at least 10 mm (0.39 in.).
 Adjust the tube clips (A) on the drain tubes (B) up or down so as not to interfere other interior
pieces or body.
10. Check for water leaks. Let the water run freely from a hose without a nozzle. Do not use a high-pressure
spray.
