GSR dizzy wiring problems in 99 civic! Extra wires?
I have searched all over the place and cannot find the answers to my problem(s).
I was told the harness should have clipped directly into the Gsr dizzy, well of course things cant be THAT easy.
So I'll list the wires that I have on the Gsr dizzy (00 obd2) and 99 Civic harness.
B18c1... Blu/yel, blu/grn, Blu(thicker), Wht, Wht/blu, Blk/yel, yel/grn, org?, org/blu.
D16y8 harness.... Blk, Red, Wht, Blk/yel, yel, Grn, Blu, yel/grn.
This is how I have them connected as of now. (car is not running right and throwing a ckp CEL.)
D16 harness -> b18 dizzy
yel/grn - yel/grn
Blk/yel - blk/yel
wht - wht
yel - org
grn - org/blu
blu - blu/grn
red - wht
I was told that the thick blue wire on the gsr dizzy does nothing (there was no blue wire on the gsr harness either)
I have a Blue/Yel wire left over on the dizzy side
and a Blk wire left over on the d16 harness.
I am not sure if all of the wires are matched up correctly but if anyone could give me some information on this it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: GSR dizzy wiring problems in 99 civic! Extra wires? (TSAF22B1)
OK after trial & error I've cleared all codes except for the 22 (vtec pressure switch?)... I replaced the switch and its still throwing that code, and the engine won't rev above 5k rpm, anyone know why this is?

should have taken both dizzys apart.
Taken the guts from the d and put in the b series cap. problem solved.

I had the same problems a few years back. I had the incorrect distributor. Check to make sure you have the correct one.

Re: GSR dizzy wiring problems in 99 civic! Extra wires? (TSAF22B1)
are you using a stock obd2 gsr ecu?
make sure the vtec pressure switch wiring is going to "C" 15 at the ecu. (c is the middle sized plug) wire should be blue & black. look at the ecu connector from the back (looking from where the wires go into the plug). count 5 accorss from the left on the second row.
use a voltmeter and set it to continuity. it should make "beep" sound or show up on the volt meter if the wire makes a solid connection.

Re: (allen7-civic)
Okay... I am really confused. There are like 3 different people posting the same questions. One says they have a GSR, the other says its an LS. WTF is going on here?!!!!
