SERVICE INFORMATION

Honda models are coming out with more and more systems that need some kind of initialization procedure done if power is removed or the battery is disconnected. Doing the idle learn and CKP pattern learn for the ECM/PCM, resetting the power window control unit, and initializing the OPDS unit are some familiar examples of these procedures.

We can't emphasize enough how important it is to do the appropriate initialization procedure. If you don't, you could wind up doing a lot of wasted troubleshooting and repair.

The repair procedures in Honda service publications are written with the appropriate initialization steps. Just follow the procedure steps to the letter, and you can't go wrong.
