Default Barometric Sensor - Code 13

ok so my check engine light came on again on the 95 ex and i ran the code on it and the code came up with code #13 Barometric Pressure Sensor. Does anyone know where this is and how to test it.

The Barometric sensor is built into the ECM. Try substituting a good known ECU and see if the CEL goes away.

There is, but it is probably more expensive than just replacing the ECU.

You would have to chip it, use a ROM editor like Crome or Uberdata to import your stock maps and then disable the sensor, then burn to a chip.

Certain years Honda used an external BARO sensor. It's not built into the ECU forever. It WAS built into the ECU in my '95 Integra, so I bet that was Hondas method for that year. I think external BARO sensors were on older cars, but maybe that's the post that you saw?
