Yes, that's just what I seem to have. I can't get that big metal plate
off; I need a deeper socket then I have. It seems to be held in with
10 mm nuts, maybe 11, but I can' t get a socket down enough to pull
them off. The screw sticking out is too long. I'll get a better one
tomorrow.
I did check with Honda, the ECU is $951. Yikes! But a local junkyard
has one for $60. It probably won't work but maybe it will. Is it worth
a gamble?
My plan is to get the plate off and dry everything out. It's finally
stopped raining here (NYC) so I have a fighting chance.

I bet the ECU is good. From what I've seen Honda ECU's are among the
best and rarely have problems. So if yours is water damaged the
junkyard replacement will probably solve your problem.

junkyard replacement will probably solve your problem.
