what does it mean if my Honda Accord 10th Generation (2018-2022) has a check engine light with code...

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to prevent electrical shorts.
• Allow the engine to cool before starting work.

2. Inspect and Replace Ignition Components

1. Remove Engine Cover (if applicable)

   • Use a socket set to remove any bolts securing the cover.
   • Carefully lift off the cover to access the ignition components.

2. Replace Spark Plug

   • Remove the spark plug wire or ignition coil for cylinder 2.
   • Use a spark plug socket to remove the old spark plug.
   • Inspect the old spark plug for signs of damage or fouling.
   • Gap the new spark plug according to manufacturer specifications (typically around 0.043 in).
   • Install the new spark plug and tighten to the manufacturer's torque specification (usually around 13 lb-ft).

3. Inspect and Replace Ignition Coil

   • If the ignition coil appears damaged, remove the mounting bolts and lift the coil out of the cylinder head.
   • Install the new ignition coil, ensuring it fits securely.
   • Reconnect the spark plug wire or harness.

3. Check Fuel Injector

1. Test Fuel Injector Function
   • Use a multimeter to check for continuity in the injector connector.
   • If faulty, remove the fuel rail and injector.
   • Replace with a new injector if necessary, ensuring proper seating and connection.

4. Reassemble and Reconnect

• Reinstall the engine cover.
• Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
