Thanks, Corkscrew - I broke open one of the relays and it's Greek to me. I'll check it out with someone from the shop I take the car to. Appreciate your insight!

I just recently replaced my O2 sensor (a few weeks ago; after the cat converter) and it went bad....because I have a performance exhaust, should I just go with a performance sensor, or stick with OEM???

Depending on your mileage, your o2 sensor may still be covered on the the Honda FACTORY recall. Its covered for up to 13years or 130k miles iirc. I took it to the dealership and they replaced it for me for free. Heh, they even changed my oil.
 
Good luck!

Not to nitpick, but it is 14y/150k.
 
How do I know? I have replaced two in my car's lifetime under this recall, for free.

Radiator Hoses Collapsed on '96 Accord EX by zguy77

I was running some errands the other day and looked down at my temperature gauge to find that it was well beyond the red. So as soon i got home i shut the car off and popped the hood to take a look at the coolant level to find that it was bone dry. I also noticed that two hoses, the upper and the lower, were collapsed. Does this mean that the hoses were old and just needed replaced or is there something else going on that would have caused this to happen? Anyone with some advise would be much appreciated.

The system does create a small vacuum when cooling down which then draws coolant from the overflow tank. If both hoses are collapsed, I would suspect the radiator cap is not opening/closing. Another possibility may be the overflow tube by the radiator cap to the tank is plugged.

How does one go about resetting the check engine light after repairs have been made on a '96 Accord EX?

It should turn off by itself in under 50 miles from the service. If not, take it back as something is wrong. I once had service done where a vacuum seal wasn't reconnected properly and this is why my engine light stayed on.

To turn the check engine light off.
1. Turn the ignition switch off.
2. Remove the BACK-UP (7.5 A) fuse from the under hood fuse/relay box for 10 seconds to reset the ECM.
The fuse/relay box is on the passenger side near the firewall and hood hinge.
