Are you talking about the service port to check a code? If so just use a paper clip

The Honda part number is shown in the diagram below. But if you are going to make such a purchase, just buy an OBD2 code reader instead.

I think you are right. In that case, the code reader option is out.

the 2 pin connector that fits the service check plug can be found under the drivers seat. Its used for the seatbelt light. you could also get them off the tweeters used in EKs. However the seatbelt connector is a whole lot easier to find. I got one from a junkyard and used it to make the little service check connector in the diagram Ron posted. I like have the connector over jerry-rigging it with wire/a paperclip
