I Have an 00 itr i running the hondata s200 system with a whole new ecu from hondata obd2 to obd1 conversion without harness
Well sometimes when im getting on it or higher rps it throws a cel the thing is that it just turns off after i turn the car off and then back on. kinda hard to check the trouble codes when the light isnt on!
just wondering if anything like this has happend to anyone and waht it may be
thanks for your time,
Tyler

 

im not sure about the hondata, but i have pulled CEL codes whne there was not a CEL on. this was done on my 93 accord. so maybe you might just try and see if you can pull any codes even if the CEL is off.

 

Shift light.

I believe this is right. That's the Hondata telling you it's time to shift. Prevents you from having to cut a hole in your dash to mount a seperate LED for a shift light.

 

really shift light?? but it dosent do it all the time and why would there be a shift llight with hondata
thanks tyler

Mrmmm...cuz maybe you aren't always at 8000rpm+?

There is a shift light with Hondata because they put one there.

 

well one more thing if it was a shift light wouldent it go off after i shift?? the light only goes off after i turn the car off then back on.. sorry im doubting i just dont really understand
thanks

 

Hmmm, that does sound odd. Yes, if it was the shift light, it should go off when you shift. I'm running an older Hondata stage 4b, and my shift light setup is custom. Therefore I can't be 100% sure it is supposed to flash the CEL (vs say the seatbelt light) for the shift light. Maybe someone with a newer S200 can chime in here. However your Hondata definitely should include the shift light function.

Search HT or go to the cspeed site and find out how to pull your CEL codes and what they are. That will help.

 

Tweeter harness as a jumper plug and check the code.

Definately should ?

I had the CEL come on a few times when I was running the Hondata S200/P28 setup, and it was mostly when trolling around in traffic.
Always went away by itself and I never figures out exactly what it was all about ...

 

Next time, don't shut off the car and check it.....?

Yes, I'm too lazy to go look up the s200 specs and options on Hondata's site, but if I remember correctly, all models of s200 include the shift light function. However I don't recall which light it flashes. Further, it's not the shift light from the behavior he describes.

Is everyone happy and understanding what I meant now? Sheesh. How about this: Go to Hondata.com and look up what you bought, and learn about how it works?
