CEL help.

[ineedmorehp]

Honda Civic ESi
Continuous CEL - diagnosed already still continuous CEL lit.

May spark sa 4 na hi-ten, ayos ang fuel pump (nirekta ko sa battery), palit main relay, may redondo ayaw lang tumuloy. Baka daw ECU na may problem. Kung ECU nga, pano nasira? Katagalan? Faulty wiring/ground? Kung faulty wiring, san? Paano?

Baka meron malapit sakin na pwede ko dalin yung ECU ko sa EG nyo para ma confirm ko kung sira talaga ECU ko. Help.

Tnx.

Where you able to retrieve the trouble code manually?

if yes,what numeric value did it reveal?

[speedyfix]

you have to know what the cel code is before we can be of any help. if you want have it towed to the shop and we'll help you resolve it.

i already jumped the diagnostic socket. unfortuantely i still get continuos CEL.

*speedyfix - meron kayong tow service?

Do you know how to read flash codes?

What does it say?

[ineedmorehp]

yes i know. it doesnt say anything except for continuous CEL.
here were the steps i did:
1. key off
2. jump the diagnose socket (sure ball contact)
3. key ON
result:
continuous CEL (with or w/o the jumper wire)

Walang blinking?

Talagang diagnostic tool ang katapat niyan. Goodluck!

[ineedmorehp]

any other ways and means?

Sabi sa notes na kung continous ang MIL ibig sabihin ay the back up is taking over. Another way to check the malfunction is for you to connect a working ECU which is what you suggested at the beginning of your thread.
Dont you have friends who has the same ride as yours that you can borrow from.

Sa Meralco at Samson meron kaming ginagamit pero ewan ko kung pahihiram.

assuming you're doing it correctly then it's probably a burnt box. pero i highly doubt it since medyo matibay naman box ng honda. so either have it towed or re-do the jumper.

^^ hey. tnx for the tips.

it seems the problem was the ecu. i opened it up and brought to a appliance repair shop to have it checked. of course i didnt told them what was it. they told me to buy 7 capacitors (indicated the rating) because almost all caps are already leaking their liquid inside (according to them the liquid is acid and can destroy the printed circuit as well cause loss of sight if mishandled). They replaced the caps for P50 (mura noh!? pero kung sinabi kong mamahalin yun malamang P500 instead of P50). The replacement costs were around P25. Eventually got myself another box just incase and currently using the new (used actaully) one. The old one is still working fine though.

ANyway for those who has similar problem check the following:
ecu fuse, battery, spark on 4 hi-ten wires, injectors (rarely daw 'to), fuel pump, fuel pressure, and multimeter to check if ther is electricity on the socket of the fuel filter; starter, as well as main relay assembly, and lastly ECU.

HTH.
