like the title my 4th gen is currently suffering from this code 1 fault , so anyone who has experience with sorting this fault please put your hands up now :lol: :lol: , from the bit of research i have done would i be right in thinking its a fault with the pump not working or even just a case of bleeding the fluid from the high pressure side of the braking system for which you need a t bleeder wrench which is now unavailable from honda :( , i am hoping its just a case of bleeding the fluid as the car hasnt been on the road since 2006 and i had to bleed the brakes to get them to work and as we no bleeding the brakes dosent replenish the fluid in the high pressure abs pump

You have to remove the pump and either refurb it or replace it and bleed it all out as you say. Mine had the same issue, for now I have decided to live without abs. For the mot I have rewired the warning light to the battery warning light so it lights up and goes out at ignition.
