Get the code. See here:
http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/misc/3173_ICCR_E_14JAN03.pdf
The "special tool" is just a bent paper clip.
Specifically you want Page 15.
As I understand it, the D light should flash its own code as well.
Report the codes back here.
It's likely the code will have to do with the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).

Tegger, do you know where the speed sensor is located? Also, does the
speed sensor actually make the needle move?
thx.

The VSS is on the top of the transmission case. It has an electrical
connector. If it fails, the speedometer will function oddly or not at all,
since it receives its signal from the VSS. And usually the transmission
will exhibit strange shifting behavior.

And, your ABS light may come on....
