Re: ECU Code # 20..??

could possibly be the alternator going bad.

there is a diagonistic cap at the dirver left foot, under the mat. if for some reason that cap is taken off or comes loose, it could cause that error code.

i'm sure somebody will suggest checking the main relay as well.

Circle Earth System...

By utilizing a 24 karat gold plated distribution block and multiple grounding points, improved idle
and drivability are often obtained as the additional grounding points equalize resistance and
voltage between various ground points...

Re: ECU Code # 20..??

Did you try resetting the ECU? Open the fuse box under the hood and remove the hazard fuse for like 30 seconds. Then just pop it back in and let the car idle for a little.

Maybe he pays his own bills and can't afford cable, why do you have such a long movie for your sig anyway, it doesn't even have anything to do with Honda's or cars.. or being a DJ...
