RE: Code P1298 & P0131
I just went outside to check and I cleared it again and when I put the key to the on position the CEL light came on and stayed on. After a couple of minutes I started the car and it did the usual. The CEL came on after five seconds.

Well, unfortunately, I fear the ECM may be bad. Unless replacement of your battery cable fixes the problem, which I think is unlikely, then you may want to replace the ECM. If this is the route you decide to take, the least expensive way to do this might be to pick up a used ECM from a salvage yard. Just be sure that the ECM matches your Civic.

Yes I guess I'm going to have to bring it in. I tell you between this car and a 97 civic I got they have not held up like they are supposed at all. I had a 95 civic ex and never had aproblem with it at all. Thank you for all the advice.
