Re: Malfunction Indicator Light
The only way to determine the problem is to read the code. Some auto parts
stores will read it for you for free, AutoZone. By driving it you take a
chance. If it is a bad O2 sensor it could damage the Catalytic converter.
You can get code readers from the autoparts store also.

Are you sure its the MIL light? Hondas also have a "Maintenance required"
light that simply means its time for an oil change. This is usually a
source of short term frustration to new Honda owners.
