What is the year of manufacture on this? If it's before end 2009, this could be the common IMA issue affecting older Civic FD3s. From what I know, Honda issued a software update to prevent battery drain in these older models. Contact Stafford motors and try to get the update flashed.
In your case, the hybrid battery may be worn out and in need of replacement. Again, your safest bet is by contacting Stafford motors and getting a battery with warranty. There are cheaper hybrid batteries available too but I don't know how reliable these are.
Before putting a new hybrid battery, check the following:
- Check your 12V battery. A poorly charged or dying battery will cause your IMA modules to crash at boot time. If such is the case, replace or charge the battery with an external charger and perform a power reset.
- If the 12V battery is in good health then perform a power reset sequence and look for the IMA light to re-appear. If it does not re-appear after several days then all is likely back to normal. If it re-appears then set an appointment with your dealer.
Power Reset Procedure :
- Disconnect the 12V battery for approximately 10-15 minutes.
- Retrieve your audio codes and reconnect the battery after waiting for 10-15 minutes with the battery disconnected.
- Enter the codes and start the car. You should notice that your battery pack’s state of charge is at 0.
- Go for a leisurely drive around the neighborhood and avoid high RPMS until your return. You should return as soon as the battery state of charge indicates a completely topped off battery pack. The charging process should be complete under 20 minutes. If it takes longer then set an appointment and take the vehicle to the dealer.
- If the SoC is full upon your return, then leave the vehicle off overnight and monitor its state of charge or other warning lights or indicators. If the SoC is lower than the level observed the previous night or if other “maintenance required” + IMA lights are on then book an appointment with your dealer and take the vehicle in for a checkup.
