While driving, the hood prop rod dislodged from its securing clip and fell onto the positive terminal of the battery. This caused an electrical short, which led to the rod heating up rapidly and igniting a fire under the hood. The fire damaged the headlight assembly and the surrounding trim panel, though the wiring fortunately did not catch fire. A nearby police officer was able to extinguish the fire before it spread further. This incident posed a serious safety risk and could have resulted in more extensive damage or injury.

I have the same problem with the readiness codes on my 2009 Honda Civic 4DSD during my inspection this week, October 2022. This also happened in 2019 and I drove the vehicle between 250-300 miles before the codes reset. This time I have driven the vehicle the same amount and the codes have not reset. The same problem is detailed on the following forum: https://www.8thcivic.com/threads/my-readiness-codes-arent-setting-i-need-help.511570/ Funny, I also have a problem with the TPMS. After replacing all of my tires at the dealership, my TPMS light kept coming on. I was unable to get back to the dealership as my spouse had a medical emergency. Today while I was doing an extended highway drive to reset the codes, around 105 miles in, my TPMS light popped on and then shut off. The tires were checked, all good, but my EVAP and Catalyst codes have not reset.
