The "SRS" or "Supplemental Restraint System" light is located above the speedometer. This light illuminates when there is a problem with the Air Bag system. If the "S" light that is blinking is below the gas gauge, this stands for "Sport" as in Sport Mode. This light or the D4 or Sport light will blink when there is a problem with the transmission detected.

To pull the code, see the procedure in this thread & the list of codes can be found here:

Hope this helps you!

If the transmission appears to be operating correctly, I'd double up on the TCM (Transmission Control Module) suggestion. It is very very common for these to go bad in the 4th gen Accords.
Capacitor failure if you're interested.
