I have a 2002 and driving to work the other day, I had the check engine light and the IMA light come on. No change in performance, and it seemed the IMA was still assisting (i.e. the charge/assist indicator still worked as expected). I immediately pulled over, turned off the car, and restarted. The IMA light did its normal power-on sequence and turned off, as normal. Of course the check engine was still lit.
After being told by Honda that even with the still in effect I would have to consent to a potential $75 diagnose fee, I decided to go to my local Autozone to see if they could give me any information about the code stored. Now, forgive my verbosity here, but I was suspecting at least SOME indication of an IMA system failure. I have the Insight service manual and the DTC troubleshooting index for the IMA system lists no "normal" engine codes, that is they are all two digit codes as opposed to the letter followed by a four digit code I'm familiar with. Anyway, Autozone told me the code was P1565, Idle speed control failure. This does not seem to relate to any IMA problem and I guess I'm skeptical at this point.
Has anyone heard of anything like this or had any problems with idle speed control on their insight?
