I had an issue like this before but I was pulling codes for low voltage. Turned out to be the ignition control module, but I agree it’s most likely to be the ignition switch or dizzy related 👍

Lo All :D
Ordered one off eBay from a Honda main dealer.
Half OEM price and free postage too :mrgreen:
I spoke to a guy there today who said it's quite a common fault.
Plastic on switch simply wears out over time as it's plastic on metal.
Cheers again all ;)

LO All :D
Got new ignition switch fitted today.
I removed all the plastic covers but drove to my fav garage to have them swapped over.
I did notice that the old one was quite warm when I got there and once removed it seemed to have a bit of oil on it.
Maybe getting hot and oil/grease leaking out :?:
Drove back home and new switch not warm so looks like old switch was culprit :mrgreen:
Cheers ;)
