I just bought a 98 Civic EX about a month ago. It has the d16y8 motor w/ manual tranny, but the dash harness is from an automatic (I don't know if this matters)--due to recent motor replacement.

Anyways, it was missing the secondary o2 sensor, so I got a new one installed, but I can't find the wires to hook it up to inside the car. Are the wires part of the dash harness or that little computer looking thing behind the cup holders or what? I'm new to Civics, so please excuse my stupidity.

i JUST woke up from a nap, so... anyways,

incide the engine bay you should see anther bracket thats empty near the front of the block. Goto a junkyard and get the male/feamle end whatever is missing, solder, done.

a bracket inside the engine bay...for the secondary sensor on the cat? sounds odd.

i looked inside the car behind the cup holders and found some loose connectors. one had 2 wires (yel/blk, yel); one had 4 wires (whi, blk, red, red/blk); one with about 10+ wires in it; and 2 thick wires (blk/whi, blk/red).

do any of those connectors go to the o2 sensor? the o2 sensor has 4 wires (blk, whi, grn, grn--something like that). maybe i need to do some kind of conversion there???
