Icon2 B16 ECU Vtec controller

I ordered a B16 with a matching ECU from an 88-91 OBD0 B16. The ECU came with a Vtec controller installed. Old school style I suppose becaus it is literally a manual switch that has a 1,2,3 position. I don't know which color wire is which? It seems that the switch lies between the ecu and the motor. The wires come directly out of the ECU and not the pig tails. I may ignore it at first but at some point I'd like to utilize it. Does anyone else have this style switch or is their a typical color configuration?

Very creative comment about the garbage can. I thought this site was to help one another. Anyone have any actual help?

Honestly he is right, I wouldn't use it, based on the sole purpose that you don't know what it is. Are there marking or a brand name on it? I'm sure that may help your search.


Why do you need it anyway?

I'm planning on wiring it the traditional way, using the original plugs and ignoring the contoller. I'm hoping the switch does not bypass the original functionality. I'm trying to get ahold of the company that did the work on the ECU as well. I just saw one that was similar on ebay 2 weeks ago but now I can't find one. BTW, this is a commuter so it's abudget build. Does anyone have a labeled diagram of the wire config at the vtec solenoid/oil pressure switch?

I posted an image of the switch and ECU as my profile photo. The company that programmed the ECU or who just simply wired the switch seems to be Succes OrientWorks. Everything I find on them is in Japanese. Assuming I use this ECU does anyone know what wires go to what?
