Do you have a prelude with anti-lock brakes? My prelude has an ALB warning light there to indicate a fault in the anti-lock brake system.

You could post a picture of it. I'm sure somebody here would recognize what the icon means.

You've got me stumped. I don't have that light. Heck, the service manual even lists that slot as being blank. That light has got to be related to some optional component your lude has.

I've attached the diagram from the service manual, and as you can see, that spot is blank.

Do you have any really odd features on your lude that are really rare. Like heated seats/mirrors? Rear fog lights? etc?

I can't quite make out what the icon looks like from your picture. If you can get a better shot of it, that might help.

Yeah. Did some more research, and that's definitely what it is. I'd doublecheck the condition of your catalytic converter and the O2 sensors around it. Maybe your cat is full of soot or something.

I didn't know that 3rd gen preludes had that sensor. I just found a picture of one on a 4th gen JDM lude, but this is the first I've seen on a 91.
