P0420 Honda

Honda has issued a service bulletin to address a Honda code P0420 Catalyst system efficiency below threshold on 1996-00 Honda Civic DX, LX, EX vehicles. The bulletin also addresses Honda cod P0301 Number 1 cylinder misfire detected, Honda code P0302 Number 2 cylinder misfire detected, P0303 Number 3 cylinder misfire detected, P0304 Number 4 cylinder misfire detected.

Honda has determined that the cause of the misfires may be poor connections at the igniter terminals. Start by crimping the wires from the distributor subassembly. Then clear the Honda codes and drive the vehicle. If the P0420 Catalyst system efficiency below threshold returns, you must replace the catalytic converter.
