FIXED PROBLEM


I got this CEL and dont know what it means. Ive been told it means low oil or bad vtec solenoid.. can somebody help me out?? I just barely swapped this motor in, bought it from PASSWORDJDM so I'm hoping its not a bad vtec solenoid.

specs:
99 EK
95 JDM GSR swap*stock
P30 ecu*I know I need a p72 but this is all i got for now
OBD2B to OBD1 conversion harness

Try swapping your vtec pressure switch, or just the whole solenoid.

Yea I'm going to do that tomorrow.. just looking for other types of reasons if not bad vtec solenoid or low oil.. thanks though

I think in the case of code 22 it's not oil but can only really be the switch getting ef'd. Mehbe wiring also.

dude....jdm motors don't have vtec pressure switches haha.

You'll need to ground the vtec pressure switch wire, or just connect it to the vtec solenoid pin out

wiring to the vtec cylinoid or possibly to the ecu as well or bad cylinoid low oil also had the same problem and it was my wiring harness from the ecu and the wiring to the cylinoid
