than i dont think theres a need to take the fuse out of the box and let your car sit. just drive it for a while and itll reprogram itself

You have to put your cold air sensor back in the intake tube and drive your car around and in the next 24 hours it should reprogram the new air flow coming through! My engine light was on for about a day and then it shut off the next!

well duh, but other then that, just unhook your NEGATIVE pattery terminal in your car for 10 minutes. then reconnect, start the car up and LET IT IDLE for another 10 minutes without touchhing the gas. thatll do it.

IDLE LEARN PROCEDURE

The idle learn procedure must be performed on all 2001 Civics at PDI. If the idle learn procedure is not done correctly, the engine would have an erratic idle. So that the ECM/PCM can learn the engine idle characteristics, also do the idle learn procedure whenever you do any of these actions:

Disconnect the battery.

Replace the ECM/PCM or unplug its connectors.

Reset the ECM/PCM with the PGM Tester. NOTE: Erasing DTCs does not require the idle learn procedure to be done again.

Remove the No. 6 (15A) fuse from the under-hood fusehelay box.

Remove the No. 19 (80A) fuse from the under-hood fusehelay box.

Remove the PGM-FI main relays 1 and 2 (behind the glove box).

Remove either of the wires from the under-hood fusehelay box terminal. Unplug any of the connectors from the back of the under-hood fusehelay box.

Unplug the connector between the engine compartment wire harness and the ECM/PCM wire harness.

Disconnect ground G1 from the transmission housing.

To complete the idle learn procedure, do this:

1. Make sure all electrical items (A/C, audio unit, defogger, lights, etc.) are turned off, then start the engine.
2. Let the engine reach its normal operating temperature (the cooling fans cycle twice).
3. Let the engine idle (throttle fully closed and with all electrical items off) for 10 minutes.
NOTE: On 2001 2-door LX and EX models, whenever you do the idle learn procedure, you must also do the cruise control learn procedure.

if you seriously have to do that instead of just yanking the negative terminal for 10 minutes, honda screwed up the 7th gen civic even more then i thought! [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
