Using the HDS (Preferred method)

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Honda Pilot, 2010 Honda Pilot, and 2009 Honda Pilot. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Connect the HDS to the Data Link Connector (DLC).

NOTE: There are two ways to read B-CAN codes with HDS.

First method; Go to TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A to check for DTCs.

Second method; Ground the SCS circuit with the HDS, then read the DTCs displayed in the multi-information display in the gauge control module assembly, then go to TROUBLESHOOTING - B-CAN SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS TEST MODE A .
