Honda Accord: Reverse Shift Fork Clearance Inspection

1. Measure the clearance between the reverse Idler gear (A) and the reverse shift fork (B) with a feeler gauge (C). If the clearance exceeds the service limit, go to step 2.

Standard; 0.20-0.59 mm (0.008-0.023 In)

Service Limit: 1.2 mm (0.05 in)

Measure the width of the reverse shift fork.

- If the width is not within the standard, replace the reverse shift fork.

- If the width is within the standard, replace the reverse idler gear.

Standard: 13.4-13.7 mm (0.53-0.54 in)
