2001 civic engine light? how to check the code?
Anyone know how to check the code? My girls car keeps throwing a check engine light and is is idling funny....i think it needs a cap and rotor but not sure. I fanyone knows how to or where i can find a book....I really dont want to have to go to the dealer and get raped in labor....any help would be cool
2001? I assume it's out of warranty? Some auto places like pep boys will scan it for free. A code scanner is the only real way to read it. However, the simple scanners may only tell you what the code is. Without a freeze frame function, you may be chasing down the wrong path. A sensor can set a fault due to some other component's failure. A dealer, although expensive, or a good independent Honda specialty shop may be the best choice if a free code scan doesn't turn up something obvious.
Thanks....dealer sounds like the only option....she still has a warranty but the are backed up...oh well patience i guess
Not sure if this works on '01 cars, but here ya go: http://www.c-speedracing.com/faq/06.php
