Sticky ECU Code 14
Hello, a friend's 1996 Honda City (with an engine almost identical to
the D16Y7, 4cyl SOHC manual) recently had an uncontrollable high idle. The ECU said code 14 (IAC), so they replaced the IAC valve (3-pin, rotary). However it still keeps blinking the same code, and I tried resetting the ECU (overnight!) and even pulling other sensors, but it keeps blinking code 14, and won't blink any other error even when other sensors are disconnected. What could be the problem? Thanks so much. |

That would cause a high idle and make the ECU think the IAC wasn't responding because the ECU had ordered a lower idle and the IAC wasn't delivering on that. A close visual inspection of hoses on the intake manifold is a good place to start. Cracks right at the ends are most common. Mike |

Re: Sticky ECU Code 14
Thanks for the responses. Tegger, we haven't started the engine yet. The error code appears when the ignition key is in the 'On' position. We've already tried leaving the battery disconnected overnight to "clear" the code, we also tried (in desperation) connecting the old IACV, but the code won't go away. I also tried disconnecting the TP and MAP sensors, but it still blinks "14" (IAC). I checked the resistance of the new IAC and one pair of terminals read 19 ohms, all other pairs read open. Could it be a bad ECU? Mike: I wish it were, but the code appears even before we start the engine. We haven't done that yet, because we're worried the ECU may be bad. Tomorrow I'm going to try disconnecting the same sensors on a Civic of the same series (EK) and see what error pops up. The owner is really worried, knowing the cost of a new ECU.. |

Definitely, start the engine. The ECU can't know whether the IAC valve is working until the engine is started. If it idles okay and the light is still on, drive it a while or reset the code manually and see if it returns. In the unlikely event the ECU is bad - they rarely fail unless they get wet - a replacement usually costs about $75 to $150 US at a wrecking yard. Prices vary that widely, so call around. It should come with a 30 day replacement guarantee in case of an intermittent. If it works 30 days it will probably work forever. BTW - where is this located? I think all of North America was using OBDII in 1996, and 14 is the OBDI code for IAC valve signal. Mike |

Re: Sticky ECU Code 14
Jumping the SCS connector reads out the ABS codes or the SRS codes depending
on which light you are looking at, NOT the engine codes. You need to read the engine codes with an OBDII tester. ABS14 is left front wheel sensor, SRS 1-4 is short in driver air bag inflator..You can't flash engine codes on any OBDII vehicle I know if.
