I checked the VTEC solenoid and it looks ok, I disconnected the plug and reconnected it. VTEC still works, but i am still getting this code.

1994 Civic EX w/ JDM B16a is my set up.

Any suggestions?

You are using theJDM B16 ECU rught??

If not take the JDM vtec solenoid off and clean it with PB Blaster (?) or brake cleaner.

see if you have a friend who has one. maybe his might work</TD></TR></TABLE>

He needs a JDM vtec solenoid if he is using the JDM ECU because the ECU does not look for oil pressureto activate vtec

This should help it a little bit. ECU??

I think he's using a P30.

From what I remember he needs a JDM ecu w/JDM engine, right???

Naw he doesn't need it. He got that with his swap (Actually he's using his single cam harness because he couldn't get the JDM harness to connect with his chassis harness with out it being stretched out too much).

he could just get a rechipped P-28 and use his vtec solenoid off his single cam.

I have an h22a eg with a p13 jdm ecu and I am getting code 21. The vtec works fine too.

Apex i ITR

its still vtec related. In 2camsam's case hit vtec fine most of the time. Sometimes vtec does not engage.

Apex i ITR is right about everything, I am running the JDM ecu P30.
I will try cleaning the connections w/ brake cleaner and reset the ECU.

if you have someone with a chipped ECU go ahead and plug that one in. I was running a code 22 and I did this with my buddies ecu, fixed the problem (don't ask me how).
