    If the CEL consistentaly comes on and then goes out after 2 seconds, when the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II), then the problem is likely distributor related. Begin by replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil:

    If the problem persists, consider installing the new ICM and coil in a new genuine Honda distributor housing--all others are suspect.

    Ensure the spark plugs (NGK only) have been changed in the last 30,000 miles.
