I'm new to this forum, so please bear with me if this has been answered. My '92 Accord EX's check engine light is coming on after about a mile from a cold start. I've been toying with the notion of buying a code reader. I don't know that I'll attempt a repair, even if I know what the problem is, but I'd like to have some knowledge of the problem before I take it to my usual Honda specialist.

So, is a code reader for this model a good investment? Will it really tell me what the problem is, or will I have to shoot in the dark anyhow?

Thanks in advance...
Larry

 

just google search "pull CEL 92 accord". You're going to have to jump 2 wires and watch the CEL flash. 1 second = a value of "10" and .5 seconds flash is "1". Do some simple match then google search "code 14 1992 accord" and there's your answer.
