I already made reservations with Uhaul on Friday as soon as this occurred. The problem is how the hell do we get the car on the auto transport if we can't start it? I don't think the 2 of us can push the sucker up that ramp.

 

If the pin voltage is the same at the ECU, but different at the coil, then it almost has to be a short, no?

sounds like the plugs are not the issue.

Does the helms manual get into this type of electrical troubleshooting? - sounds like its not EMS related.

 

if you have to go the trailer route, pick up a cheap winch (or manual pully) at a local pep boys, etc... that'll get it on the carrier.

HOLY SHIT!

Apparently that one fuse connects to the 4th coil and the EMS uses that to read connection as well. Without that fuse I was unable to connect my laptop to the EMS. But now with it I can and the voltage reads correctly as well. So I will now try to start the car, going to see if I can get some new spark plugs.

 

gotta love electrical demons - thank got Lucas doesn't make Honda's electronics

sounds like good progress dan.

 

muahah...so it worked huh...sorry for not following the thread I was up drinking last nite......
Josh its raining over here.... I will try to leave within the hour.... I forgot about day light savings....'
From my experience, if that fuse blows .. you might have a wiring issue.....
If it blows again...recheck you rwiring might be a faulted harness dan....
