Light on dash says pgm-f1, what does this mean

http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2689519

These three websites should help you out tremendously with your third generation Honda Accord. According to the top two forums, there is a box under your drivers seat which you will need to access from the back of the seat by folding it up and sliding it forward. There should be a small hatch on the box. Behind the hatch are some LED lights that will be blinking if the ignition is on and the PGM-F1 light is still on. This sequence of blinking is a code and you will need a book for the car to tell you what this code means, or a dealer can tell you. This will let you know why the light is on and what needs to be fixed.

I recommend becoming a member of www.3geez.com as they deal specifically with the year range of your car. If anyone knows answers to your questions, they will.

Good Luck!

Where is the pcv valve located on a 88 honda accord Lxi, fuel injected? i'm trying to replace it and can't seem to locate.

Follow the large (3/8 in) PCV vacuum hose from the front of the intake manifold plenum (lg silver box with label PGM-FI ). It turns toward the pass. side then down between intake maifold tubes/runners to the PCV valve.
