Redwood,

I'd suggest you read the description of how the 'lamp test' is done
(it's in the owner's manual). While you're watching the lamp test,
listen to the fuel pump run. It might even run for one elephant, two
elephant, three elephants. If you don't hear it run at all, there's a
problem with the main relay OR the fuel pump.

Do a search for MAIN RELAY in this group if you're not sure.

You failed to tell us when, how, or at what mileage (or temperature) the
problem happened with your daughter's car.

Maybe you should have it towed to a good 3rd party Honda service shop ?
