Good morning, I just got my break pads and rotors done as well as my break flush done yesterday. I got in the car and turned it on and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I drove home which as about an hour away, I got home no issues went inside and that was the that. I wake up this morning with my check engine light along with my traction control light, brake system steering wheel icon. Is there any tips on what to do at this point to resolve the light issue and diagnose why they’re on? (I’m aware of the air bag light in the picture)

Step 1. Read the CEL code.
Step 2. Google said code.
Step 3. Come to CivicX and make a post when you don't understand the results of Step 2.

If your brake pads were done by someone other than Honda; there may be an adjustment that wasn't done that causes an error with the e-brake. I've read similar posts re: same.

The main thing is you're getting a check engine light like Whiskey said. You're tuned so use KTuner and let us know what code you're getting.

That would go a long way to helping diagnose the possible issue.

Ohhh ok since I have the v1.2 what would be the best way to check, I do have it plugged into a tablet via Bluetooth.

I have the V2 which is different but if you go to the KTuner software, there is a "Tools" menu. You should see "Error Codes" in the dropdown.

Just throwing out a guess...

Could be injectors.
Could be plugs.
Could be coils.

Could be something else.

I checked the spark plugs and they’re still good.
I guess coils are next.
