. Here's how to reset the ECM: 1) Disconnect the negative battery cable for 10 seconds, or 2) Remove the Backup Fuse, in the under hood fuse box, for 10 seconds.

I have replaced the ecm, because both : main relay and fuel pump are in good working conditions , it could any sensor ? Tune up? thanks for yoour interest

The CEL continues to come on, because a code or codes continues to be thrown;i.e. stored in the computer. Read the codes, based on how I told you above, and write them down. Then, we can go from there.

It's likely that the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil need to be replaced:

These are the two most problematic components on this generation of Honda. They should be replaced every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.
