Hey everyone, any bright ideas what parts need to be replaced or how to fix this?
I got engine fault light turned on in my 1999 accord 2.0 and it gave me 5 different obd codes!

-P0500
-P1166
-P1167
-P0141
-P0443

This is first time i have problems with engine light with this car and im puzzled of the amount of obd codes. Codes must be related to others since they came at the same time, right?
But then again i know first code is something about speed sensor and others are different.

Symphtoms i have are speedometer not working, kilometre counter not working, cruise control not working and idling is very low, engine barely runs when idling.

Thanks for the help before hand

P0500 - Vehicle Speed Sensor Malfunction
P1166 - Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor 1 Heater Circuit Malfunction
P1167 - Air/Fuel Ratio Sensor 1 Heater System Malfunction
P0141 - O2 Bank 1 Sensor 2 Heater Circuit Malfunction Bank
P0443 - EVAP Canister Purge Valve Circuit Malfunction

Were those codes. Looking further for those in near days. Any leads would be appreacited too.
 
The P0500 looks like the cause of the speedo not working. I would imagine you could check these sensors yourself if you found out where to look for them. The 02 sensor, upstream one, is coming right out the front of the engine, right under where the spark plugs are in the top, it sticks out toward the front of the car. The downstream one is somewhere after the catalytic converter. The EVAP canister is under the left rear wheel area. You'll have to get it up on stands to get under there. That's all I know off the top of my head. The codes are saying system/circuit malfunction so I'm not sure if that means the sensors themselves are bad, or if the electrical system that gets the info is bad. The last 4 codes are related to emissions (sorta) so it might be something with the circuit itself. Sorry I can't help with more precise advice...

Thanks for the help. I have solved these problems now. One of engine control module fuses was blown and after replacing it everything works perfectly and all problems gone.
Engine warning light have also stayed away after resetting it.

I was told to look for if the battery/charge/alternator light comes on when i turn ignition on and that light didnt come on. Same guy also told those problems are all in the same circuit diagram and told me to look for fuses. Thats how i got this solved.
