I'm working on an 2002 Odyssey. I can drive the vehicle, MIL blinking and then check codes, no codes. Data with a Zeus shows current misfires. Also, the data doesn't seen to update if the mis goes away. I used the same method you're using to find a bad coil. Driver's door doesn't open so I didn't start with current loop on the ignition coil fuse-which, thanks Honda, wish every vehicle was that simple to look certain circuits.

That's funny, I just did the same thing on a 04 today at work and you can guess it was the same coil that was bad. This is the easiest way to check for a misfire on these engines granted could be anything but gives you a quick start in the Diagnosis. Had a 06 last year and someone decided not to tighten down the Plug enough and it bled combustion heat into the base of the Coil and ended up drilling the coil out because it swelled and finished it off screwing a drywall screw and using a slide hammer to get it out of the hole, what a mess.

A straight up line is a primary coil short and a slightly curved up line is a secondary coil short? But you say this secondary coil short pattern can be from a spark plug. How would you identify between a coil and a spark plug in the case of coil that's covered by an intake manifold?? ( smash a plug and compare with a bad coil.) I have a scope and amp clamp and I'm having a hard time interpreting the patterns correctly. A scope pattern legend with variables would be awesome.

Not much, depends on the control strategy. If they are using a current limit or ramp and fire design. I think this is a ramp and fire so you will not see much change at all. It takes the same amount of time to charge the coil regardless of RPM, you just need to start the process sooner or later based on piston position and speed.

+Chuks Ihemere This is general [ non specific ] information look up each code online and make notes. [ I have reviewed your codes ] When you do engine changes you have to do a VIN [ number ] check to endure that the other engine will work properly. this is no easy undertaking. you obviously have communication between the OBD 2 plug and the engine computer, you need to verify communication between the Instrument cluster and the ECU and the ignition switch. Ensure that every connection is secured plus the grounding wires and straps, Check all Fuses. Look like a lot of sensors are lacking reference voltage / signal return / or Power [ or ground ] Your wiring harness or engine computer may not be compatible with the new engine. There is a difference between a Code reader and a /scanner. You need a scanner to inspect the ACTUAL VALUES of signals [ and other data PID s ] on all affected systems. Good luck.

ScannerDanner But this particular one was so trivial that even I was able to direct my wife by phone when she was stuck 500 miles away in our Odyssey when a coil died while picking up our son from unviersity! A shop should NOT be calling you for *this* particular job. I understand why a shop would unload *all* type of misfire to you but it does not inspire confidence in the ability of that shop. You wouldn't want one of your student to become this type of a shop owner :-) I think I had this discussion with you before. And I am certainly NOT faulting YOU at all but still disappointed with the shop. If they had isolated the cylinder and then swapped/replace coil and plug and the problem was still there, then yes, you should have been called then. Seriously, almost every Odyssey of that era had at least a coil die on it and if one wrenches for living, he should know that.
