I have traced electrical diagrams for hours and am still haiving this problem. One other thing is that i have switched from a auto ecu to a standard ecu. Could you or anybody shed any light to these problems????
For mine if you look on the auto shifter thing. There is the 2 wires blk/red and blk/wht connect those together. Then find the green and white wire right next to the plugs and connect that with the other 2 cables. I did it and it stayed in park and didnt crank for me

Yes.

Swap all of them, clutch and brake pedals are way to close otherwise. You can use the automatic gas pedal, but you need to use the automatic throttlecable too and it feels weird due to a spring mechanism for the automatic transmission kickdown/passing gear.

I know this is an old thread but didn't want to make another one just for this question...When extending wire from clutch safety switch (yellow plug on top of clutch pedal) to the auto harness... What type of wire am I supposed to be using? Help would be much appreciated Thank You

What type? The same gauge as the one you're cutting and extending. Am I misunderstanding the question?

Use. The. Same. Gauge. Wire.
There is nothing else to hear out. Use a larger gauge wire if you want to possibly start a fire.

Just read my old questions
So the clutch safety switch's wires from the pigtails are 20 gauge and the two thick black wires on the auto shifter harness are a lot thicker maybe 10 or 8 is it ok to run the 20gauge to here without a problem?

If you're connecting a 20g wire to a 10g wire, use 12-14g wire.

^ Please don't do this. Use a relay. The start-up current draw for the starter motor can reach nearly 200A. There is no sane way to use 20AWG wire for this. All the write-ups that connect the 10AWG wire directly to the clutch pedal are simply wrong. Even Honda uses a relay on an MT car for this purpose.

Definitely not going to do that, from what I've read I will need high amperage relay I have no experience with wiring/electrical but ill keep doing more research and I'll post my finds or if someone can point me in the right direction it'll be great

So the two pins green and yellow they go back to the tranny? Or just looped? This will still work on a bseries swap into 94 civic hatch

They go out to the transmission.

This.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess he's still running the auto ECU which is why he has the check engine light. Yes, you need a manual ecu.
