Look under the red hose, see the one coolant line running to the back of the intake, thats the eacv





IACV , and here are all the steps to fix it and check for it

Code 14 - Electronic Air Control Valve
Lets extra air into the intake manifold, to help control the idle under different loads.

Check the O-rings, for mountng condition.
Clean the inside of the Valve after removing, using any kind of solvent that will remove carbon build up. By spraying it inside the two holes ect...

Place the flat end of a screw driver on the EACV while the engine is running. Place the handle against your ear and listen. Should hear something in there jumping back and fourth at a rapid rate.

EACV Sensor Wires:


1 Blue/Black
1 Yellow/Black

Back

If you took plugs off recently make sure its plugged in

Code 12 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation System

Mounted on the right back corner of the fire wall. It cannot be purchased seperatly, but only as a unit. Voltage range of the lift sensor is 1.2v closed to 4.0v open. It was required on all cars sold in in CA. starting in 1988. However, some CIVIC's were engineered without having to use one, to control NOx.

Purge Control Wires:


1 Yellow/Black
1 Red/Yellow
