Default 94 Legend check engine light

Hello,

I am brand new to this site. It looks like there is a lot of knowledge here. I have a 1994 Acura Legend L. This was my wife's grandmother's car passed down to us with only 38000 miles. It has 52000 on it now and it has been a great car.

I plan on keeping it for a long time, so I want to stay on top of every little thing that comes up. I will throw a few questions out there and see what yall think. Thanks in advance for any info.

Just yesterday, the check engine light came on for the first time. I started it up in the morning and drove about 4 miles, then the light came on and stayed on. I stopped the car. and then restarted it and the light did not come on the rest of the day.

Same thing today, I started it up in the morning and drove about 4 miles and the light came on. Stopped for lunch and when I got back in, no light.

I lifted up the carpet on passenger floorboard and located a window with an amber led. When I turn the key to on, i get a quick amber flash and then nothing. I do not see a red led.

The car runs perfectly.

Question 2: Where is the air filter in the cabin. My air flow has decreased slowly and I suspect that the filter is the original.

Question 3: How do you turn off the factory alarm. I have to unlock the passenger door first and then walk around to the drivers side to avoid activating the alarm and upsetting my neighbors.

Thanks again for any help. I know I am a new member, but I am so glad I found this site. I plan to follow this board and participate in the giving and not just the taking. This car will be with me for a long time and I prefer to do the minor mechanical work myself.

Mike
