If I'm not mistaken, it should be located under the hood on the driver's side (very close to it too). Anyways, check out your owner's manual, it'll tell you exactly where it's located, how to check the fluid etc. etc.

There is no fluid, the EP has electric power steering...

First check the EPS fuse...if the fuse is still good take it to Honda and they can diagnose if it's something electrical or the EPS motor itself.

Does your speedometer work?
Unplug and plug in your VSS.
My EPS light turned on from my VSS not being plugged in.
