ECU is Going Blink Blink. Can you help me understand it?
Ok I was driving to work and my Check Engine light goes on. It is not any of my fluids so I dont know what it is. I pulled back the carpet and turned the key and this is what I got.
Beep ..................... Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Be ep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep..Beep.Beep
So one beep then space for about 1 sec then 16 beeps in about .5 sec intervals. Now I have never read my ECU before but my understanding is that the 1st beep with the long space after it = 10, then each other little one = 1. Is this right?
So am I looking at a code 26 here? Or am I looking at a 17? Because I thought that Honda ECUs only went up to 20. Maybe 16? I dont know help me.
Thanks

So when it goes blink one time and then a break that means that there are more than one code showing at the same time? Ok so I had one blink then a break. Then I had 16 in a row. Damn it! I dont have any money to replace this ****! Looks like Im doing a DPFI to MPFI swap and have to find a DX 02 Sensor. I can get this sensor from any 88-91 Honda DX or DPFI engine right? Like from HBs, Sedans, CRXs, wagons etc.
Code 01 = Oxygen content
Code 16 = Fuel injector

yeah.. I've got out the code bible, and it says that you're throwing an oxygen sensor code... check to see if it's tight... and a 16 is a fuel injector... you guys were right on. They could be related.... you can reset them by removing the Hazard fuse for 10 sec.
oh yeah, 17 is a faulty speed sensor...

Re: (VashTheStampede)
also, pull the negative cable off the battery, wait 10secs then put it back on. it could just be that the ecu needs to be reset.
the weird thing, when i first put my engine back in (d15b2, same as yours) i was getting the same 2 codes. code 1 reset when i reset the ecu. and code 16, my cold start injector wire was a bit loose.
