Engine code P1259
If you get amber check engine light and find you get engine code P1259. The number corresponds to: vtec malfunction. Check wiring and Vtec solenoid. I removed the assembly and checked the small screen which was clean. Ordered a replacment sensor Vtec oil pressure switch part number 37250PCXA02. Cost $65, and takes ten minutes to replace yourself.
Had to wait a few days for the switch to come in. Once installed Vtec works again. Was an infuriating experience because the codes were too vague. There are actually three codes that say Vtec malfunction.....
This happened when my car pass 110,000 miles, so it might be happening to others who have high mileage.
