Default 4WS problem

Hi, i have a 94 JDM prelude 2.2vtec, the 4WS light shows up, but if I disconnect and reconnect battery, problem solved for a while, till its back. I have read the other 4WS thread, but where do I find the error codes that are given?? sorry if this is stupid question. Is my next step to resolder the relay contacts?

Cheers

Pez

I would resolder the contact points. I am very sure that the ECU is the problem.

Read this thread. https://honda-tech.com/zeropost?cmd=tshow&id=886363

Mine had the same problem you speak of too. Sometime the 4WS light would stay on all the time. The only way to fix it was by pulling the stereo fuse to reset the 4WS ECU.

Since I changed the 4WS ECU, it works MUCH better. It still throws the 4WS light every once in a while but usually turning the car off and back on fixes it.

Good luck.
