On the 95 4 cyl (my 95 EX auto 4 cyl 4dr) the connector is just where Jim described (right/pass side almost where the right lower hinge of the glove box is). If pic's are needed send me a PM with an e-mail address and I can send them tomorrow night (~7-8 pm EST)

Look at the pictures of that dhost site I put in the first post. It has pretty good pics of the connector location.

Starting in 96 (and 95 for the 6-cylinder accord only), the connector was behind the ash tray.

Your 95 is like mine where the connector is under the glove box.

This is komelon's dad who is trying to help. I just want to say thank you, and my son and I will jump head first into this after we both get off work and go from there. Thank you again for the link and other help. We'll update as we move forward.

92-95 Accord,

Retrieving Codes

With ignition off, insert jumper wire in service check connector terminals, located behind right side of dash on Accord,
Turn ignition switch to ON position. Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) will be indicated by a series of long and short flashes on MIL.
The number of long flashes indicates the number in the 10s column. The number of short flashes indicates the number in the 1s column. For example, 4 long flashes followed by 3 short flashes would indicate DTC 43.

I am not sure which connector you are talking about ,, i am trying to remember what connector is behind the ash tray on a 95 acc 4 cyl ,,, but that is not the service chk connector ..

looks like we pulled a DTC 9 code.

The check engine light stayed on the entire time and D4 flashed 9 times

Was that from the check engine light or from the D4 light?

D4

So it was not a code at all, right? I just looked back over the link and I know it should be the CEL, not the D4 light.

The D4 light will give you the transmission code. The check engine light will give you an engine code.

Transmission code 9 is a problem with the counter-shaft speed sensor. Either disconnected electrical connector, short/broken in the wiring, or the sensor itself.

You should download the 94 shop manual from the spooner link I posted in the online manuals thread in the DIY section. 14-66 starts the diagnostic tree.

Briefly, check that the electrical connector is plugged in, the pins are clean and making a good connection. The resistance across the sensor should be 400-600 ohms. With the sensor unplugged, check that Pin D4 and D17 on the TCU electrical connector are open to ground. With the sensor plugged in, the resistance should still be 400-600 ohms.
