well i can't find my book right now but basicaly vtec works off of like 4 to 5 things working togethor. oil pressure so check your oil, itake air temp (the reason mine went the intake air temp sensor.) the solonoid, coolant sensor and such. um just search for what makes vtec tick and single it out. sounds like oil pressure or you speed sensor

so your vtec did work when you didnt have you speed sensor pluged in... at least youve given my some pointers on what it could be which is better then nothing
