I pulled codes with a OBDII code reader and it gave me three codes. (1) P1166- Primary HO2S (No.1) Heater System Electrical. (2) PO134- O2 Sensor circut no activity detected (bank 1 Sensor 1). (3) PO845-...

You have a burned Oxygen sencer, and the transmission pressure sencer is bad also. Your heater has a bad switchover circuit. Hope this helps.

Check engine light is on took to auto zone they gave me a code that said P1166

Hello there:
P1167 and P1166 codes relate to the primary O2 sensor heater malfunction.
there are two different O2 sensors, a "universal" sensor from Autozone and a supposedly OEM sensor from O'Reilly's. Both of them may cause the car to throw a p1166 or P1167 code and run rough. so i highly recommend getting a O2 sensor from Honda, and this will fix the problem .
It turns out that none of the aftermarket probes from Bosch or Denso will work on a ULEV (F23A4) 4 cyl. engine. Honda had different part number probes for the normal VTEC 4 cyl. and the ULEV Vtec engine and the probes look different and have different length cables. The computers at O'Reilly's, Autozone, or NAPA made no distinction between these two engine types.
