Carbon Accumulation Check

Note. If the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) has been reported on, check for diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).

Scheme 603: Carbon Accumulation Check
  1. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  3. Make sure the HDS communicates with the PCM. If it doesn't, go to the DLC circuit troubleshooting (see «DLC CIRCUIT TROUBLESHOOTING»(ref-513153-S33429882062012110700000) ).
  4. Start the engine. Hold the engine speed at 3, 000 rpm without load (in P or N) until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
  5. Check the REL TP SENSOR in the DATA LIST with the HDS. The reading should be below 2.46 deg. If it is not, clean the throttle body (see «THROTTLE BODY CLEANING»(ref-513163-S15523425292012110700000) ).

Throttle Body Cleaning

CAUTIONDo not insert your fingers into the installed throttle body when you turn the ignition switch to ON (II) or while the ignition switch is in ON (II). If you do, you will seriously injure your fingers if the throttle valve is activated.

  1. Make sure the ignition switch is turned to LOCK (0).
  2. Check for damage to the air cleaner. If the air cleaner is damaged, replace it (see «AIR CLEANER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-513163-S20686336082012110700000) ).
  3. Remove the throttle body (see «THROTTLE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-513163-S12903280352012110700000) ).
  4. Clean off the carbon from the throttle valve and inside the throttle body with a paper towel soaked in throttle plate cleaner. NOTE: Remove the throttle body to clean it. Be careful not to pinch your fingers. To avoid removing the molybdenum coating, do not clean the bearing area of the throttle shaft (A). Do not spray throttle plate cleaner directly on the throttle body. Use Honda genuine throttle plate cleaner.
  5. Install the throttle body (see «THROTTLE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION»(ref-513163-S12903280352012110700000) ).
  6. Connect the HDS to the data link connector (DLC) (A) located under the driver's side of the dashboard.
  7. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
  8. Reset the PCM with the HDS.
  9. Select the ETCS TEST in the INSPECTION MENU with the HDS.
  10. Select TP POSITION CHECK, then clear the throttle position (TP) learned value.
  11. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  12. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and wait 2 seconds without pressing the accelerator pedal.
  13. Do the PCM idle learn procedure (see «PCM IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-513173-S16164063582012110700000) ).

  1. Remove the clips (A).
  2. Disconnect the MAF sensor/IAT sensor connector (B), then remove the air cleaner housing cover (C), and the air cleaner element (D). NOTE: Be careful not to damage the MAF sensor/IAT sensor on the air cleaner housing cover.
  3. Remove the air cleaner housing (A).
  4. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal.

Scheme 608: Air Cleaner Element Inspection/Replacement
  1. Open the air cleaner housing cover (A).
  2. Remove the air cleaner element (B) from the air cleaner housing (C).
  3. Check the air cleaner element for damaged, dirt, or clogging. If it is damaged or clogged, replace it. NOTE: Do not use compressed air to clean the air cleaner element.
  4. Clean and remove any debris from inside the air cleaner housing.
  5. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal. If you did not replace the air cleaner element, this procedure is complete. If the Maintenance Minder required air cleaner element replacement, reset the Maintenance Minder (see «RESETTING THE MAINTENANCE MINDER»(ref-513152-S04873588592012110700000) ). If the idle speed fluctuates, do the idle speed inspection (see «IDLE SPEED INSPECTION»(ref-513173-S03126675442012110700000) ).
