The CAS is located inside the Distributor.

Their are 2 sensors inside the dizzy which is the CAS and the TDC(Top Dead Center) sensor.

I have never changed the sensor itself but when my mothr got the code(Honda also), I just changed the whole unit.

So you still have the code flashing after you replaced the dizzy?

Sometimes the ECU will not get rid of the flashing light on the ECU when you fix the problem. You'll have to clear it yourself.

Do you know if You're OBD1 or OBD0?

Try and disconnect the battery for a minute or two and see if you still get the flashing.

1992-1995 integras have the same OBD1 computer. The only thing different is the B18A1 has a less flowing head than the B18B1.

1991 down its OBD0

1996 and up its OBD2

Why do you think its the ECU?

The ECU is telling you what's wrong. I know its the Dizzy.

Why don't you check the conntector? Why don't you take off your dizzy and inspect it?

Did you disconnect the battery, to try to reset the ECU...
