cel 6

[accordztech]

ok, i got cel code 6. coolant temp sensor.

there are 3 of them i believe. i know my condenser fan on the drivers side never worked but worked when i had it jumped to the battery for a year.

im wondering if its the same sensor to control it, but which one is it.....is it the one by the upper rad hose.....the thermostat housing......or the one under the distribitor?

can anyone help me asap??

did it start automatically? make sure all connections are on snug, and make sure theyre on the right plugs on the correct sensors. there are some plugs that are the same shape and size as the ect sensor, only diff is the color.

you should clean out the sensor under the dizzy. sometimes that gets covered with oil and doesnt read correctly.

The honda.uk site wasn't working for the page about testing the coolant temperature sensor, so I had to dl and host the pages. Here they are.
