Have the engine computer scanned for trouble codes. Having been on, it should have set a trouble code, which might point you towards solving the misfire problem.
All cars marketed in the U.S. in the year 1996 and later have to have a standard OBD-II connector inside the car under the dash on the driver's side.
With an OBD-II Scanner one can scan the codes that are indicating trouble in the engine.
After repairs are made, the light can be turned off by pressing the 'erase code' button on the scanner.
If one is experiencing an intermitent code, the code may be turned off with the 'erase code' button on the scanner to temporarily turn the check engine light off, until circumstances make the light turn back on.
when this stall happens notice if the speedometer drops to "0" while the vehicle is in motion, if some warning lights aren't lit (chk engine, ABS, brake etc.) when key is set to "On"!! If these issues happen when the vehicle "shuts off while driving" it may be caused by "ignition switch failure". Your vehicle may be part of a 2002 Honda/Acura recall. Symtoms include: intermitted power loss, intermitted engine shut off, some warning lights not lit, random hard starts. This happens more often in warmer/hot weather. Call your local dealer and provide them with your VIN# to check if your vehicle is still covered, they may fix it for free. Otherwise the part is about $48-$100!!
I believe your oil pump is not working, Please do not start the car anymore or your engine will suffer severe engine damage, have it towed to your mechanic.
The "check gage" when ever the engine coolant is high or the engine oil pressure is low. First step of diagnosis, check the coolant level and your oil level immediately and then go from there. Hopefully, this will help you to FixYa problem!
test power at the starter's power wire. If there is voltage, replace starter. If there is no power, check fuses/relays, if those are fine, check ignition switch (there is a recall on this since 2002). Typical symtoms of ignition switch failure on these vehicles include: Some warning lights not lit when key is turned to ON (ABS, battery, check engine, oil light etc.), Intermitted hard start/No start, stalling while driving, intermitted guage failure. If it is an ignition switch failure, call your local honda dealer for possible free repair under the recall(have your VIN# at hand). hopefully this helps
The only way to fix the check engine light is to have the codes read by hand-held obd1 scanner. THis will tell you exactly what the problem is. It may just be a vacuum leak. Never really know without having codes read. Many part stores do this for free.
