2024 Honda Passport Check Engine Light Codes

On the road in Boise, a check engine light on a 2024 Honda Passport most often maps to standardized diagnostic trouble codes: P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0171/P0172 (fuel trim lean/rich), P0300–P0306 (misfires), and P0455 (EVAP leak). Each code carries consequences if ignored: a P0420 left unrepaired can mean reduced fuel economy and eventual catalytic converter failure, costing thousands compared with much lower catalytic or sensor repairs when addressed early. Fuel trim and misfire codes can lead to poor acceleration, higher emissions, and damage to ignition coils and catalytic converters — small repairs now prevent major expenses later. At Larry H. Miller Honda Boise we combine local convenience with certified Honda expertise, scanning with OEM tools, testing under factory parameters, and explaining costs clearly so you understand both immediate and lifetime savings.
