Intermittent Failures

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1994 Honda Prelude. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Intermittent failures may cause Malfunction Indicator light (MIL) to flicker or illuminate and go out after the intermittent fault goes away. The corresponding DTC will be retained in ECM memory. If related fault does not reoccur within 50 starter operations, related DTC will be erased from control unit memory. Intermittent failures may be caused by sensor, connector or wiring related problems. See INTERMITTENTS in TESTS W/O CODES article.
