The S light refers to sport mode on the trany. The sport mode changes the shifts slightly in an automatic trans. The car will perform better in s mode in stop and go traffic. The button to change to S mode is located on the shifter.

Look in your owners manual to see exactly what this light means. If it is the Sport Light. There is a problem with the transmission. Take it to a Honda dealer or a trusted independent. Stay away from chain transmission shops.

What are the relationship between Diode voltage and temperature?

The equation relating diode voltage and current is: Id = Is*(exp(Vd / n*Vt) - 1) Where: Id = Diode current Is = Saturation current exp() = exponential function (e^) n = Ideality factor Vt = Thermal voltage The relationship between temperature and diode voltage comes from this Vt, the Thermal voltage, which is defined as: Vt = k*T / q Where k = Boltzmann constant (8.617 * 10^−5 eV/K) T = Temperature in Kelvin q = Elemental charge (1.602 * 10^−19 C) Thus, the temperature affects the thermal voltage (an electrostatic voltage across the PN junction), which affects the diode's Id and Vd properties.
