Hey Guys - I figured it out - new problem- help please
You all know my saga of no vtec. I guess I am so trustworthy that I never checked the dudes work on the wiring, but it turns out he was pinning the wires in the wrong spots (he read the plug A1, A2, etc instead of A1, A3, A5, etc.). Well I wired the vtec solenoid, put in my Zdyne 1 wire conversion ecu and vtec worked...kinda. the car runs like shit with that ecu, like some kinda ignition problem.
Then I came back and wired the oil pressure switch and the knock sensor and hooked up the PW0. It threw me a code 22 (oil pressure switch) and vtec did not work. I'm going to check the wiring again and make it a little cleaner. Another thing is that he wired those 3 wires in the wrong spots, so now those wires arent connected to anything. I'm wondering if that is now the problem why the car doesnt run well. I can't find in my helms manual what the wires are for. The ones that have been cut that shouldnt have are: A17 B9 B18 I'm hoping that after these are rewired, it will be ok. Anybody know what those wires are for?

yup, they guy who wired it read the plugs pinouts wrong. I checked it and realized it was wrong then I "fixed" it, but I messed up and switched the oil pressure and the knock sensor because the wires were the same color. It's fine now, I took it to the beach and it rode great. Only thing now is I put the new wheels on and they seem out of balance, even though it looks as though they were balanced already. The steering wheel shakes a little when I'm going around 55. this is just an inconvenience..
