Ive seen a few threads on this, but all went in different directions.

I will check fuses once i get home.

Any ideas?

(-) means it can't determine what gear it is in. Have you hooked up any accessories?
If so what and to what wire?
Did you hook to the reverse wire?

It could be in limp mode. Look in your owners manual around page 225.
But.
In the past it has been just a loose plug/wire. Check the gear position switch wires.
sorry i'm not at home to find a image for location for the wires.
But check all the connections under the driver seat and any others you can find.
Thanks.

Thank you.

I did hook up accessories to the accessory circuit fuse a while back. I looked at the fuses, which are not blown.

I did not hook to reverse wire.

It is definitely in limp mode.

Idling rough as well now.

I will have to look it over when i have more time.

Perhaps try the clutch relearn process.

Its most likely not fuse related. and its not a clutch relearn. that symbol is a U on the display if that was needed.
I'll hunt down the other thread here in a bit.

Found what I was looking for here.
P1000 - Stuck in 1st gear Post #10.
Its also in your owners manual for easier reading too. page 223, roundabout.

As for checking for a loose plug. There are about 2 dozen that can cause a (-) according to the service manual.
I would just check everything you can find. starting under the drivers seat.
Keep us updated.
Thanks.

Hope that helps. Its hard to identify this kind of error.
its a lost connection error somewhere. Either a plug or bad sensor/part
I would manually change the gears and see what you get.
I might even disconnect the battery and see what happens.

See the black - below each item's description. Each item, if it has a fault, can cause a (-) to show.
Ya. not much help really.

Haven't had a chance to mess with it yet, might just clean it up and take it to the dealer and let them mess with it, test the warranty services at my local dealer before buying the extended.

Thank you very much for the guidance.

I found the problem!

I wasn't hopeful, but after 15 minutes of messing around, I found a disconnected wire.

Under the seat, passenger side of subtrans under a plate.

Just a single wire. Plugged it back in and all is fixed!

Thanks again Hondasxs.

Hopefully this will help others.

I had same problem with my Pioneer 1000-5. (-) blinking and stuck in first gear. Checked all grounds to engine, checked all plugs around ECU, had just changed plugs 4 months ago, and unplugged all accessories without fix. Changed the neutral position sensor and it's back to normal. What gets you as it would run normal 50% and then limp mode others so it make you think it's electrical.
