I was thinking about buying a 99 Honda Accord for my dad, but It's throwing a code, and the maintenance light is on. I know in Integra's there's a little jumper harness over by the passenger feet area that you can check the code on, but I'm not sure how to check it on here. Also the maintenance light is on, I figure it's because of the code, but I'm not sure. In Integra's there's just a little button under the dash that you can turn it off with, but I looked and didn't see one on the accord. Cool, any help would be appreciated, I'm gonna do some more research and see if I can find anything else out. Also does anyone have a list of codes like on the other model forums, thanks again

 

im not to sure about the engine light but im pretty sure that the maintness light is on from not being reset after an oil change, have you tryed to reset the maintess light at all?

 

For the CEL,
Use the plug described here:

Thanks guys, I got the maintenance light figured out and I ran the code, it's the oxygen sensor, do any of you know if these year accords have one or two oxygen sensors? Thanks again for the help

 

Bump for help

one at each side of the header, and the last one in the middle of the cat converter.

four banger have two one precat and one in the cat.

make sure you only buy oem oxygen sensor, even the bosch oem replacment sensor will not clear the cel code.
