i am no expert (duh :P)

can you get ecu diagnostics thing (the light flashing thing)?

but maybe try to find all the possible errors that would result in the engine staying on (like find them off a website [there are lists for certain types of ecu/engines]), and eliminate all the possibilities.. which could then lead you to your problem.

all i know is my friend has a 4th gen accord and his engine light stays on because his speedo sensor is fuxor..

anyway, good luck

is the ecu all plugged up correctly? this may sound like a stupid question, but is the ecu the correct one? eg OB1 or OBII?

yeh everything is hooked up correctly, i found the problem i think, but now the car dont start, and i seem to think that its got something to do with the alarm coz it wont reset and the imoblisres are stopping it.

Check your O2 sensor near the cat, make sure all injectors are plugged in and not wired the wrong way, check the MAP sensor and any vacuum hoses. That;s all i can think of.

Problem has been fixed.
2 problems, 1 a biatch, and 1 stoopid

first, faulty earth wire, replaced it.

second, the switch on the back of the throttle body was broken, and since you cant replce the damn switch thanx to honda, i had to go and buy a new throttle body (actually second hand but i still had to but a new one)

thanx for your help peoplez...
