Ignition coil The procedures for checking and removing and installing the ignition coil are described in Chapter 1 .
Ignition distributor Distributor - a device responsible for sending a high-voltage sparking pulse to the desired contact. It is essentially a rotary switch that directs current to one terminal or another. All vehicles covered in this book...
Generator — general description The generator converts part of the mechanical energy of the engine into electrical energy, and is an electric generator connected to the engine by a belt drive. When the ignition is on, current flows from the battery...
Generator — Cautions To prevent damage to the alternator, stabilizer, and ECU, the following precautions should be observed when working on vehicle electrical equipment: 1. Never reverse the polarity of the contacts on the battery. Always...
Generator — Uninstall and Install The generator is installed at the bottom of the engine on a refractory wall, which creates certain difficulties for access to it. We can mount the generator both above the radiator grille and below, depending on your...
Generator — replacement of brushes Carbon brushes, or contactors, in a generator are a key part in generating electricity. Small carbon bars move across the commutator, generating current as the generator turns. Over time, the brushes wear out and, to...
Voltage stabilizer — removal and installation The stabilizer controls the voltage at the output of the generator. Without such control, high current from the alternator or battery will damage the vehicle's electrical system. Uninstall and install All Accord and...
Battery — removal and installation For battery care and maintenance instructions, see chapter 1 . Uninstall and install The battery is located in the engine compartment on all models. 1. Make sure the ignition is off. 2. Disconnect the wires: first from...
Starter — description and device The starter is located on the side of the fireproof wall of the engine compartment. ACCORD and PRELUDE cars are equipped with both direct drive and reduction starters. They differ in their internal structure, which...
Starter — removal and installation 1. Disconnect wires from both plugs of the accumulator, since negative. 2. Disconnect cable from starter motor, tag and disconnect wires from starter solenoid. In certain engine/transmission combinations, an engine...
Starter drive replacement Replacement is made on the starter removed from the car. Type Nippon Denso This starter has a duplicate reduction gear set, which occupies a solid volume, and the solenoid is often placed inside the starter. 1. Remove...
Oil pressure sensor The oil pressure switch is a relay switch controlled by the oil pressure in the lubrication system. Under normal conditions, the switch is opened by strong oil pressure. Once the pressure falls below the acceptable...
Coolant temperature sensor The cooler temperature meter is a variable resistor. Changes in coolant temperature are reflected in the temperature gauge on the instrument panel. This sensor should not be confused with other temperature sensors...
Radiator fan switch This switch is the very first observer of the operation of the radiator fan. When the refrigerant in the system reaches a certain temperature, the fan switch trips, closing the fan circuit. Typically, the switch is...
Low fuel sensor A sensor, or switch, connected to the low fuel warning light on the dash is wired to a fuel gauge that sends a signal to the fuel gauge on the dash. The sensor and meter are located in the fuel tank. Removing the tank...
Brake fluid level sensor If the fluid level in the brake system reservoir drops to the maximum permissible level, then a warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel. The signal to it comes from the brake fluid level sensor located in the...
