Default CE light caused my distributor?

My distributor sounds like its about to go out, the bearing doesnt sound very good. Would this cause the CE light to come on? This is on an H23 btw.

if the bearing is going out start saving your pennies cause that is either a ditributor rebuild o a brand new one, well i guess or a used one, any way they are not cheap. I had my distributor bearing seize about 2 years ago the engine wouldnt even crank, as far a MIL you'd have to tell me what code it is to see if its related. If it was a CKP or CMP sensor then yes it would be tied in with the distributor

Thanks, yea i just picked up my car from inlien and things have not been goin very well. Hopefully the ource of the all the problems will be the distributor. I just ordered a new one from ebay for liek 175 bucks, good deal. Ill let u know the code once i get a chance.

I just ordered one off of ebay from the same person for $175 too. Mine sounds horrible and I don't want it to seize so I'm not driving it until I put the new one on. You can't beat that deal... $220 overnighted for everything brand new... honda wants $330 for just the housing.
