2003 Honda Civic is throwing a code - P1298
2003 Honda Civic is throwing a code - P1298
The car is bone stock with 60xxx miles on it.
So far I found - P1298 High Voltage In ELD Circuit
Anyone know what the problem is? Its a 2003 Civic, when driving the car it feels like the car is missing every few mins. Could it be the alternator going bad?
I also found this and I hope it's not the problem - well I can't post the url to the article becuase I'm new and don't have 15+ posts, but it talks about the alternator and the ELD circuit -
How hard is it to replace the entire fuse box?!?

If voltage on the green/red wire doesn't drop when you turn on the headlights, the ELD has failed. Fixing it requires replacing the main fuse box. A hard ELD failure should set OBI) II code P1297 or P1298.

Have you had a meter on it to monitor actual voltage ?? The voltage jumps around a lot. I would say 14.3-14.5 volts would be max.
The battery would have SOMEWHAT of a regulating property, but the regulator and the ELD would do the most work.

its a manufacture code.... the first digit is either going to be 1 or 0 if its a one its a manufacture code and if its 0 then its a genic code.... sorry to say but your going to have to bring it back to factory to get it checked out.
