your reading it wrong . it only has short beeps 1-10 .. 1 would be 02 sensor. for it to blink a 14 it would have to have one long and 4 short.

It can do 15 short blinks (PG7), and be the ignition output signal. I ran in to that problem when my tach wire basically severed itself and the ECU didn't know WTF the RPM's were.

So, what ECU are you running, and what ill effects on the engine? You sure it's 1 long and 14 short, or 15 short; or 2 seperate codes (1 long, and then another 14 short?)

PG7=88-89 Integra LS 5spd (What's I'm using for my ZC right now)

0 - ECU
1 - OXYGEN CONTENT
3 - MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure)
4 - CRANK ANGLE
5 - MAP (Manifold Absolute Pressure)
6 - COOLANT TEMPERATURE
7 - THROTTLE ANGLE
8 - TDC POSITION
9 - No. 1 CYLINDER POSITION (1.6L)
10 - INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE
12 - EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION SYSTEM (not on ZC)
13 - ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE
14 - ELECTRONIC AIR CONTROL
15 - IGNITION OUTPUT SIGNAL
16 - FUEL INJECTOR
17 - VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR
19 - LOCK-UP CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE (Automatic only)
20 - ELECTRIC LOAD


I have throw code 15 before, so I know it will do 15 short blinks. 14 would be electronic air control.

he has a 91 Si . i dont believe hes throwing a 14. if it was a 14 then you would be right it would be the eacv but then his car would not be holding idle.

I searched the internet last night I just wanted to get some other opinions to add to what I found.
Best URL: http://www.evotuners.com/civic_errorcodes.htm

I think you guys are right I have two codes

1 = Oxygen content - Check oxygen sensor and replace if necessary.
14 = Electronic Air Control (EACV) - Check electronic air control valve and replace if necessary.

Where should I buy these parts? How much do you think they would cost?

P.S. The problem is that I put the Gude race package on my car and now the damn thing will not idle. So I think I am reading the codes correctly.

With the gude package I got a whole new Intake manifold that is ported and polished. Now the performance kicks aZZ but the freaken car will not idle. Its real low and then it stalls.

I have to get a new o2 sensor and EACV and put those in. I hope that that fixes the problems because I hate driving this thing when it woln't idle.
