2.
Locate the oil pressure switch by the oil filter. Inspect the plastic end to see what color it is. On the Prelude Si, the wire is bolted to the switch
so you must fold back the rubber boot to see the end. On all other models, remove the wire and boot by pulling them straight off.
3.
a) If the switch has a black plastic end, reconnect the wire and boot and go to step 4.
b) If the switch has a green plastic end, replace it with a new unit. Coat the threads with a 3 mm wide bead of Liquid Gasket (P/N
08718-0001) before installation. Torque the switch to 1.8 kg-m (13 lb.ft).
4.
Lower the hoist. Check the engine oil level and add as needed.
5.
Center punch a completion mark over the last digit in the VIN in the engine compartment.
