My sister bought 2004 Civic from Kia dealer. Engine light came on
after 60 days. No codes found, or reason for light. Checking out
comment from dealer about preprogrammed intervals for engine light
activation - Honda doesn't do that, do they?

Hondas have a "maintenance required" light in addition to the expected
"Check engine" light. You can reset the maintenance light yourself,
directions are in the owners manual. Its just a reminder to change the oil
and does come on at periodic mileage intervals.

If the actual check engine light is on, there is a problem. No programmed
intervals here. AutoZone will usually read the codes for free.

Which one is lit?
