i hope you put coolant in your radiator and oil in your engine?

solid cell can mean there is something wrong with your ecu. try an other one, p28 or p30.....

Honda service manual quote:

(Check engine light stays on Steady),The backup system is in operation.Substitute a known good ecu and recheck.If the indication goes away, replace the original ecu.

- Thu Jul 10, 2008 10:35 pm #61583 it wasn't the ecu, it was the ecu fuse, i have sorted that out, tried starting it, but no luck there's no currenct going into starter motor, i think it might be the driverside headlight loom as one of the wires from the starter connects on that loom, Amer
