22 - VTEC Oil Pressure Switch - Open or short in VTEC OPS circuit, defective VTEC pressure switch

I threw this code after having my VAFC installed. What happened?

Also, last night, the car fell on its face right around the VTEC cross over. And earlier it was being a bitch and wouldnt start. It did eventually, but there was water in the passanger side floorboard, I have a leak somewhere...

double check all the conections and make sure its not an install error. Water around the ECU is not good, might wanna move the wires and stuff so it won't come into contact with the water. Make sure you initialized the vafc properly and all the settings are zeroed out. This is why you need to be on dyno with it.

 

well your vtec might be set too low, and also make sure you attach the VTM wire.it said i didn't but in their updated one it says you do need to connect it. when the computer sends a signal to the motor to activate vtec, it expects to see a change in oil pressure, but since the vafc is probably making it come on later, the computer is not getting that signal until vtec actually comes on. the VTM wire sorta tricks the computer.

This makes sense, because its throwing the VTEC oil pressure code. Which wire is it? And where do I connect it?

Up.........

it should say in the instructions which wire it is

 

Good point.... Dont mind me...

Search for a post created by me a while back okay? That should help...I had the same problem.

 

check your VTEC wire. i got the same problem until i looked and saw that my VTEC solder was loose and sometimes disconnected during bumps and jars, interrupting the car while it was in VTEC and throwing it into limp mode.
