How to use the Backprobe Set
Connect the backprobe adapters to the stacking patch cords, and connect the cords to a multimeter. Using the wire
insulation as a guide for the contoured tip of the backprobe adapter, gently slide the tip into the connector from the
wire side until it comes in contact with the terminal end of the wire.
TCM Reset Procedure
1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
2. Remove the No. 33 CLOCK fuse (7.5 A) from the under-hood fuse/relay box for 10 seconds to reset the TCM.
NOTE:
• Disconnecting the No. 33 CLOCK fuse also cancels the radio preset stations and clock setting. Make note of the
radio presets before removing the fuse so you can reset them.
• The TCM memory cannot be cleared by using the OBD II scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester; be sure to remove the
CLOCK fuse to reset the TCM.

1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.

3. Disconnect the OBD II Scan Tool or Honda PGM Tester from the Data Link Connector, or remove the special tool from
the Service Check Connector.
