I have a 97 hatch with a "Mini-Me" swap in it that I need to smog(Star smog). I bought the car this way and its been really reliable so far(I had it for a year now). I need to smog this car and I thought by putting the stock pcm back in it would be fine. Apparently the p28 that is in is tuned to make it run cause when I put the stock pcm in I have a Cel for IACV circuit. I did a little digging and found that it was a 3 wire made to a 2 wire IACV. So the orange signal wire is not even attached to anything.
The p28 has an adapter harness that it plugs into to work but I guess it is not hooked up to OBDII port.

Is there a way around this ?

Anyone ???

that computer is obd1

and if you still can have a 3wire iacv (on a y7 throttle body) and plug that orange wire plugs into a13
and Im guessing it originally came stock with an obd2a computer

plz explain what motor you have more details about the car

You will need an obd2 ECU if they run a diagnostic.

From what I know its a stock 16y7 block and a 92-95 vtec head(IDK which one), 2 wire vtec wired to a p28 using a adapter harness t plug into the stock wiring.

I want to use the stock ecu(OBDII). Maybe the signal wire(orange) can be jumpered somewhere else for the ecu to recognize it and turn off the cel. IDK.

Will a d16y7 intake work on a 92-95 vtec head ?

Lizardslap

cant help you with that intake working on another head I have no information about that

but you need a d16y7 throttle body for that 3 wire iacv to work along with the plug for it

or you could try and source an obd2-a single over head cam vtec manual ecu and try that in its place and then it would look for a 2 wire iacv mabey


I just know how to go from 2 wire iacv to 3 wire iacv

I'm not sure the vtec ecu would plug in. The adapter plug eliminates the diagnostic port(assuming) and if I have to use it again to plug in a vtec ecu that would defeat the purpose. The intake I'm not sure it would bolt up either because it is completely different. I appreciate the help man , thanks !

Just get the correct head and run the correct ECU. Whomever thought this was a good idea in CA of all places was an idiot.

No matter what you try in this configuration you're going to fail.

Daz-E

That's what I'm gonna have to do ! When mods like this was done it was easier to get around the smog with a hookup but now Cali has the new smog program that targets smog shops its either really hard or expensive to get a hooked up smog.

that adapter on the ecu plugs should just unplug and leave the original obd2-a plugs there
