      Find out what code is being thrown when the Check Engine Light comes on. If it's a 17, then it's your VSS like 91accord4door said. Replacing the VSS takes ten minutes and is pretty cheap.

      It's worth doing because the VSS affects your idle. Also, your cruise control won't work without a good VSS.

        Do you recommend a new VSS or is it ok to rip one from a dismantler?
        If new, does it have to be OEM or is it something easily found at NAPA/Chief/etc/?

            The VSS usually quits after about 90-100k miles. If you swap one in from a motor with ~100k you may have to replace again later! You can buy them online for about $40 aftermarket.

            on the stairs, she grabs my arm, says whats up,
            where you been, is something wrong?
            i try to just smile, and say everything’s fine.

              Brand new VSS from Honda costs over $300!!!

              You're better off finding one at a junkyard or from a member parting out their Accord.
