HONDA 2005 Pilot - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 70)

If your fuel cap is loose or missing, a
‘‘CHECK FUEL CAP’’ message
appears as text in the odometer/
outside temperature display after
you start the engine. Turn the
engine off and confirm the fuel cap is
installed. If it is, loosen the cap, then
retighten it at least 3 clicks. When
you restart the engine, the message
appears again. To clear, press and
hold the Trip/Reset button until the
message is replaced by the
odometer/outside temperature
display.
If the system still detects a loose or
missing fuel cap, the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp (MIL) comes on.
Turn the engine off and check or
retighten the fuel cap at least 3 clicks.
The MIL goes out after 3 days of
normal driving once the cap is
tightened or replaced. If it does not
go out, have your dealer inspect the
vehicle. For more information, see
