Your telling me, but then again look at how long his been here. Good to see some old school posters even if they have a problem of there own
ELD sensor is in the distributor isnt it? It allows your car to run correctly when its in motion, im pretty sure your in limp mode right now. If i am right about it being in the distributor best bet it to replace the distributor.
Then again i could be wrong about it in the distributor, find out where the sensor is and replace it.

The ELD, Electrical Load Detector, is located in the underhood fuse box. Think of it as an inductive amp-meter - when current passes through this thing, its output voltage changes. Its job is to help the ECU determine the charging rate for the alternator, among other things.
You need a Helms and a multi-meter in order to troubleshoot this problem - Do you have these two items? If no, then about all you can do is visually inspect for open/shorted wires and blown fuses. If all the visual stuff checks out, and you don't have a Helms manual or multi-meter, then go with the shotgun approach to troubleshooting - just start replacing ****. But be forewarned - this method of troubleshooting tends to get pricey if you don't 'hit the nail on the head' the first go around.
How the Honda Charging System Works - again, to do anything useful with this info, you need a meter.
