Re: not connecting to scanner
changed title to a more descriptive one, need help is...
  1. why did you change the sensor?
  2. was it an OEM one? Aftermarket sensors like camshaft, crankshaft does not agree well with Hondas. OEM is NTK or Denso - we parrot the same thing almost daily here, BTW.
  3. was scanner connecting to the ECU before?

Re: not connecting to scanner
Check the alternator mounting bolts. If those are loose they it can fry the ECU preventing a scanner from connecting.
