    . When the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II), does the Check Engine Light come on for 2 seconds and then go out?

    . Check all underhood and underdash fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    Most likely, then, one or more of the internal distributor sensors (CKP, CYL, or TDC) is bad. Since they are unserviceable, replace the distributor housing (genuine Honda only) and install your new ignitor and coil:

    Be sure you applied a thin, even coat of silicone heat transfer compound to the back of the ignitor.

    Interesting. On this site we have had very few new aftermarket or professionally rebuilt Honda distributors work. It hasn't made much difference where they came from.
