I have a 1006 Accord Ex 5sp Coupe with ABS. When I start the car the ABS
light comes on, goes off normally and then comes on again after 45seconds.
It then stays on utill the the engine is stoped. I know there is a early
verssion of the Honda trouble code recorder some where.

I'd like to find out :
can I diagnose the problem from just the symptoms?
where is the code recorder located (note later years had different and
more comprehensive recorders)?
if the repair requies an new ABS pump is there a fuse can I pull to
turn off the warning lightlight?

Isn't your car under factory warranty?

Sorry, a bad case of "fat fingers" it should have read "1996 Accord Ex 5sp
Coupe with ABS"

Give the correct year if you want a qualified answer. If 2006 are you still
under warranty? If so take it in. If not take it in and have the codes read
out. It isn't just a simple matter.
