I have never done it myself. I have a link with a how to (clean egr ports) with pictures. But it is for the 95 model Accord engine. From what I here, the engines are not the same as the 98. Here's the link, if you want to take a look at it. You may have to copy and paste the link. http://members.troublecodes.net/hondadude/95AccordEGR.htm
I don't know how different the engines are. Probably has something to do with Vtec, or DOHC. Maybe there is a how-to for the 98 Accord engine on the net somewhere. Do a search, and you might get lucky. Good luck, and Happy Hondaing.

I have the exact problem right now with my honda accord. I have an 98 EX v.6, which dumps on me all the time. I have replaced the ignition, distributor and cap, and now I am focusing on the EGR. All to no avail. Not sure where to go from here. By the way, the egr was recalled, however the dealership won't honor the recall... 8 yrs. 88,000 miles. Not sure where to go from here... love the car and performance... but I hate this problem. By the way, mine started roughly the same time yours did. Wild.

We decided instead of trying to do it ourselves to take it to the dealer and have the ports cleaned out, it runs about $200.00 and takes about 2 hours they say, we have already replaced the valve and now we have been told we probably should have cleaned it first, actually we just bought the valve and are gonna put it on ourselves ($135) dealer wants and additional $250. I will let you know how that goes.

I have a 99 Honda Accord LX 4 door and on the dashboard the CAR DOOR AND TRUNK lights are constantly on and I had it diagnose twice and it showed no problem with the wiring. So if anyone have, had this problem before or can assist me with this problem it would be a big help THANX.
P.S. my dome lights are working properly, when you open the door it turns on and when you close the door it turns off. its just on the dashboard the lights are on.

got me stumped. i very much doubt they ran multiple conductors to each switch at each location for both dash indication and center-dome on (don't have schematics with me), so this condition *might* suggest a problem with the dashboard assembly or the module that drives those lamps...

Could be a sensor in the trunk or rear of the car. Check to see if the auto has been in a collision if it is used...

Timing Belt on a 2000 Accord

Replace the timing belt or not? I own a 2000 Accord(4cyl) which is 7 years old and has 82.5K miles on it. I'm trying to decide if I should pay the $650 to have the timing belt replaced. I plan on buying the new Accord in the Spring or Summer of 2008.
The manual recommends changing the belt at 7 years or 100K miles. My car will be 8 years old and have approx. 93K miles when I trade it in next Spring/Summer.
Am I playing with fire trying to get to 8 years without changing the timing belt? I'm just having a tough time spending the $650 when I know I'm only going to have the car for less than a year.

I have a 2000 V6 Accord. My mechanic shop, which only services Hondas & Acuras, has been in business for over 20 yrs. and who has customers that love them due to their excellent service and reasonable prices, recommends changing the timing belt at 90,000 miles. I am approaching 75,000 miles so I have more time. However, your question is more of a judgment call with a decision only y-o-u can really make. I suggest going with your gut feeling.

The lights flashing, and the trunk button working, tells me the transmitter is working. So the door actuator would be a suspect at this point. Testing should be done before replacing. Good luck
