Hey jeff, I had just asked one of the tech's at work to look up the problem your having with the CEL.

The flashing of the cel means it's still re-learning the code.

Out of the service manual it self.

" To check the readiness codes are set to complete, Turn the ignition switch to ON (II), But do not start the engine. The MIL will come on for 15-20 seconds. If it flashes five times, one or mode readiness codes are not set to complete. To set the readiness codes, do the procedure for the appropriate codes."

Also on a continuation of the manual it looks like you might need to bring it back in to the dealership to get it re-cleared if the light doesnt go off with in 50kms or so.

Awesome, thanks mang...what are the procedures to set the readiness codes? I've probably driven my car 100km since picking it back up. Maybe I'll try letting it idle for a few minutes.

Cool man, glad you got that sorted out! Was going to ask you about that.
Thanks again for the initial help. It was an easy choice to go to Honda after we figured out the code..
