Default ATTS Light?

Does the ATTS light stay on until you start moving or does it just come on for a few seconds after starting the car? How long should it stay on? Thanks for any help!

didnt we answer this in the other thread? the ATTS light should only come on when u first start the car.. just like any of the other lights i.e ABS etc...

If it stays on after that, or comes on at all when driving.. there is a problem with the ATTS system, which is not uncommon for the SH, which can lead to a costly repair.

I was just reading an old post about the check engine light causing the ATTS light to stay on. The car needs a new O2 sensor which is causing the check engine light to come on, could this also cause the ATTS light to come on? Here is the quote from the previous thread, anyone know if this is true?

"Whenever there is a problem on the SH, ATTS light will always be on by default. With Engine light on you will lose VTEC and ATTS will be off. These are codes built-in to prevent damage from Honda. Also if you have high miles on your car, you may have to replace EGR valve due to carbon build up. This was the case it happened to me with the code print out."

Thanks for any help!

The dealer is fixing it for me before I take it off the lot. Can you please tell me how to reset the ECU. If the ATTS light is still on when I go to pick it up I will try to reset the ECU, if it still stays on I am not paying for the car until they fix it. Thanks!
