Passenger cars (Honda N-WGN CUSTOM and others) - Repair

An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger cars (Honda N-WGN CUSTOM and others) - Repair. Due to an engine (ignition coil) defect. ■ Defective component (part name): Engine (ignition coil). ■ Condition of the structure, equipment or performance deemed noncompliant with standards and its cause: ① The noise suppression resistor that removes electrical noise inside the ignition coil has an improper structure. As a result, arc discharge caused by current flow during ignition may break the electrical connection at the resistor terminal. Continued use in this condition may cause the spark plug seal to deteriorate and electrical discharge to occur, resulting in insufficient ignition coil output, rough engine operation and illumination of the engine warning light. In the worst case, the engine may stall. ② The noise suppression resistor that removes electrical noise inside the ignition coil has an improper structure. Repeated large accelerator pedal movements while driving at a constant vehicle speed may cause arc discharge from current flow during ignition to break the electrical connection at the resistor terminal. This may cause insufficient ignition coil output, rough engine operation and illumination of the engine warning light. In addition, noise generated during ignition may prevent the engine control computer from controlling the engine properly, potentially causing the engine to stall. Published 2015-11-26.
What to do now
(Recall) 3702 ■ Corrective measures: ① Replace the ignition coils with modified parts and replace the spark plugs with new ones. ② On all vehicles, replace the ignition coils with modified parts.
