Hi guys,

I have 99 Honda Accord EX V6. The check engine light was on, then we had our code reader and it seemed that the car was throwing out code P1298. On the reader description (right below the code), it mentions "Fuel air/meter malfunction", but according the the book or forum about the code description, it says different thing that P1298 is the Electrical Load Detector Circuit High Voltage. I am really confused now of which one is the problem. I need help from you guys to find what may be causing the problem here. Thank you.

 

P1298=ELD circuit high voltage.

 

ok, if it needs to be replaced how do you replace it? this is not charging my battery and its leaving me stranded. Help, please.

It's in the engine fuse box. Unfortunately you can't buy just the ELD, you have to buy the whole fuse box.

$117 new (#38250-S84-A22): http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/home.htm

Around $50 used: http://www.car-part.com/

I wouldn't recommend a used one for something like this tho.

 

Ok, I replaced the fuse box with the ELD and after driving a few feel check engine light came back on with the fuking P1298!?@#!?
Now what. I don't know what else to do. I'm also getting an error on primary and secondary oxygen sensors. All this I found out when I was fixing a p500 vss error. I replaced vss and it works on a off, it seems wo rork when I'm cruising and tapping on brake????? Any help guys would be appreciated, I have a 2000 Accord LX.

 

bump for some assistance.

Blown number 6 fuse in underdash fuse box because of the blk/yel alternator wire. Find and fix the damaged wire. Look around alternator wire. Hope this helps.
