Under-Hood (Engine Cold)

Check the 12-Volt Battery
To ensure long battery life and that the customer gets a fully charged battery, you must check it at these times:
When the vehicle first arrives at the dealership
During the PDI (if done at a later date)
At regular intervals
Just before vehicle delivery
Test the battery with the ED-18 battery tester using S/B 88-023, Battery Testing and Replacement. If the ED-18 does
not show GOOD BATTERY, charge the battery with the GR8 battery diagnostic station.
Write down the GOOD BATTERY 10-digit code in the PDI and Final Delivery Checklist booklet. During the PDI, write
down the code in the "Under Hood - Engine Cold" section. Then, at vehicle delivery, test the battery again, charge if
needed, and write down the new code in the "Final Inspection (At Delivery)" section.
NOTE: Make sure the ED-18 has the latest software installed before using it. See S/B 09-045, ED-18 Battery Tester
Update Information.

Check PCU Coolant Level
Check the coolant level in the expansion tank. Make sure it is between the MAX mark (A) and MIN mark (B). If the
coolant level is at or below the MIN mark, add Honda Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant Type 2 to bring it to the MAX mark.
Inspect the cooling system for leaks.
