Troubleshooting Procedures The trans control unit is under the carpet near the passenger's feet. The A/T Control Unit has a built-in self-diagnosis function. The S3 indicator light in the gauge assembly and LED display on the A/T control unit blink when the A/T control unit senses an abnormality in the input or output systems. The number of blinks from the LED display varies according to the problem, which can be diagnosed by counting the number of blinks. For problem diagnosis count the number of blinks from the LED display as shown on the Symptom-to-Component Chart on page 14-40. If no abnormality is found from your inspection, refer to the hydraulic system Symptom-to-component Chart on page 14-66. LED DISPLAY S3 INDICATOR LIGHT When the ignition switch is turned ON, the S3 indicator light comes on for about two seconds regardless of whether there is a problem. The S3 indicator light will also come on when in S3 mode. If there is a system problem, the S3 indicator light will come on and continue to blink until the ignition key is turned OFF. When the ignition key is turned ON again, the S3 indicator light will not blink again for the original problem. But if the A/T control unit senses the original abnormality again with ignition switch ON, the S3 indicator light will blink again for the original problem. Therefore, even though the S3 indicator light does not come on when turning the ignition key ON, check the LED display for automatic transmission problem diagnosis. Since the LED problem code is retained in memory, it will blink again whenever the ignition key is turned on. If the LED problem code is not memorized, check the following causes: Check the EFI ECU fuse No. 35 (10 A) in the under-hood relay box. Check for an open circuit in the WHT/YEL wire between the EFI ECU fuse No. 35 (10 A) and A/T control unit B12 terminal. After making repair, disconnect the EFI ECU fuse No. 35 (10 A) in the under-hood relay box for more than ten seconds to reset LED display memory.

If the dome light and courtesy lights are all out on a 95 Honda Accord 4dr will changing a fuse fix the problem?

I have a 2002 Accord and the dome light, interior courtesy lights on the doors, and the map lights stopped working. They all work off one fuse and it was blown. I replaced the fuse for 93 cents and fixed the problem. . Before you worry about your fuse, i would check your doorpin! open all of the doors one by one and push the door pin all of the way in....sometimes you need to adjust the door latch


Why don't the tail lightswork on a 1985 Honda Accord if the brake lights and the back up and the turn signals work and the fuse is not blown?

There should be a switch located on the shaft that the brake pedal is attached to. Check the wiring and listen for a click when the brake is depressed. If everything seems okay, use a wire to jump across the two contacts and see if the brake lights go on. If this fails, then you have a broken wire somewhere in your brake light circuit. Good luck.
