That is the "owners manual"... not a "Service" one... the only electrical section is about checking the fuse.

I read on another thread a user posted useful information which actually described the procedure on checking the coils and everything... i will try to find it

If everyone read the titles to all the differnet forums on the Hondaspree.net they would find this and all the manual needs would be taken care of. :roll:
