I have a 2000 Honda Civic Ex that the engine light is coming on. I took it to have the codes read and it came up CSF sensor so I replaced it but the light is still on. I have taken it to so many places and it is now not showing any codes!!! The ECU has been reset and the battery cables have been disconnected and reconnected. What could be the problem? Frustrated.....

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

engine light was on, checked codes it gave CSF was bad. Replaced it but the light stayed
on. The computer was reset then the ECU was reset and drove some more. Now there
are no codes showing but the cel is still on. We had the oil and filter changed, plugs and
rotor button changed. Also ramped up the rmps because it was idling low. Help! It will not
pass inspection in NC with cel on. Desperate because no one knows what to fix.

About 3 weeks ago I went to start up my 2009 Honda Civic Sedan lx and lights came on and everything but wouldn't start. On the third time trying to start it none of the lights came on, so I changed the battery. I tried starting it with the new battery, all lights came on perfectly, but it wouldn't turn over. I changed the starter and the car ran fine with no problems for maybe 2 weeks. This morning I was driving down the road when the check engine light came on and the engine suddenly started to rev up uncontrollably. I was able to brake but it was very hard to do because the engine kept revving. Without my foot on the brake the car was going 30 something mph, when I braked and got below 15 I felt a hard downshift. Has anyone had these simliar problems or know what might have cause this kind of behavior? 3 Answers
