91 integra RS, I checked my codes and got 13. My hanes manual says Barometric Pressure, have checked by an authorized mechanic, blah blah.

What the hell could that be? I assume a sensor not getting correct air readings, but which one? Anyone had this?

Is your ecu stock? Some older PR4s have the pressure sensor mounted external of the ecu, and some are internal.

Yes, it's stock, as far as I know. I don't think the previous owner would have messed with it.

And how can I find the sensor? I've never seen one, so I don't know what I'm looking for.

Time to search for a manual or go get one. ;)

Apperently you cannot service this particular sensor. You have to replace the ECU.


Crap....

I got the CEL once when there was a wire disconnected in teh dizzy. I hooked it back up and reset the ECU and all was cool. Might be something you want to check.

hey da best way is going to a import place that has all data and finding out how u could fix it or reset but I don't know if u have connections like that. I'd go to my college and fix it but check around shops if u know someone and ask if they have All data;)

the BARO sensor is built into the ECU....you must replace the ecu....or chip it...

check for the baro sensor on the passenger side underneath the glove box go straight in from the middle of the door it should be around that area, it has 3 wires going to it (red/wht, grn/wht, yel/wht) should have a silver tag on it that says "denso" its held on with a 10mm bolt if its not there...then, like mentioned above i guess its in the ecu...

my gf's 98 civic ex stock y8 is throwing cel 13 and its been a pain trying to figure out what the problem is. First off you should replace the ecu with a stock ecu, if that doesn't work try replacing the map sensor. At the moment i replaced both and its still throwing the same cel. i've talked to alot of people and the two options i have now is to pick up another ecu or take it to a shop which will charge me a arm and leg to fix it

10 psi seems like a dream
BAro sensor or code 13 in my 91 civic si hatch is located on passenger side underneath the glove box on the wall held on by a 10 mm bolt.

I threw 13 when ,I swaped in my ls motor wat.I did was unplug the baro unplugged the ecu and took the negative off my battery as well as the the ecu fuse .I waited promixmatley 10 minutes pluged everything back up and it fixed my problem


Baro Sensor Read`s Hieght or atmosphereic pressure or some s**t like that,I cant remember now when i get home from work i`ll like in my manual it tell me wat the code is.
