If the Check Engine light is coming on, then an error code has been stored
and may be retrieved.

If the light comes on but NO code is stored, then the engine's computer may
be faulty (which is very unlikely but is possible).

The car should still be under warranty. Maybe your garage has used up their
warranty allotment from Honda and don't want to help you because they'd have
to eat the cost. They're not behaving very chivalrously, anyway.

If the Check Engine light comes on with no codes whatsoever, then somebody
had better find out why. That's NOT normal.
