For those of us who won't(can't) spend $$$ in OBD-ii scanners; there is an alternative to find out
about codes and that CHECK ENGINE light that is driving us crazy:
1) Go to Autozone and have them read your codes (it's free)
or
2) See the instructions below

WARNING!!!: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

HOW TO OBTAIN TROUBLE CODES MANUALLY (6Th Gen Accord - V6 & I4)
1) Find the Data Link Connector (DLC) located under the instrument panel in the driver's side.
2) Jump terminals 8 and 13 by connecting them with a wire/cable.

DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)

3) Turn the ignition key to ON and observe the "CHECK ENGINE" light. It will flash the trouble codes. For example: 2
long flashes, pause and then 3 short flashes = 23 = P0325 = Knock sensor circuit fault.
One short flash = 1. One long flash = 10. If there is no trouble codes, the light will not flash.

90.............P1456,P1457........................ ..........EVAP control system leak
91.............P0452,P0453........................ ..........EVAP fuel tank pressure sensor low/high input

The codes that will not flash are as follows (will need code scanner):
P1607-PCM internal circuit failure and
P1705,06,38,39,53,68,73,91-Automatic transaxle failure

HOW TO CLEAR TROUBLE CODES (after fixing problem)
1) Remove ignition key (OFF)
2) Locate fuse panel on passenger's side (open door)
2) Remove fuse no. 13 (7.5 amp) for 10 seconds, and then place it back in.
