jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
bought an eg6 engine bay hanress for my rhd converted hatch. problem I ran into over the weekend is there are no wires for a map sensor. I even unloomed it looking for cut wires there are none. what do I do?
do jdm eg's run different map sensors or do I have the wrong harness?

Some eg hatches that I have seen had the map plug come through the firewall. While other hatches it was on the engine harness.

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
i was looking up on google and found a pic that said on a eg6 the "MAP sensor is an integral part of the throttle body"

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
i believe in 92 and possibly 93 the map sensor came out of the firewall.
i wish i was at the shop i work at, we have a 92 motor in a 95 civic and i had to wire up a map sensor plug.
it was pretty easy to do, i wired it straight from the shock tower plug to the map sensor.
i just dont remember which pins to wire into

if I have to run the wires to the ecu I guess ill just do that but I would like to know forsure

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
you will be using the 95 hatch interior harness correct?
and the eg6 clip enginge harness?
the reason i needed to know is because your 95 comes factory with a throttle body mounted map sensor, meaning its wired into the passenger shock tower.
the engine harness from the older eg6 clip will not have map sensor wires.
if thats the case, ill be able to help you with the wiring, i just need to go outside and take a picture of mine

the eg6 clip didnt come with an engine harness I had to locate and buy one

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
this first picture is of the map sensor wiring from the shock tower to the map sensor (engine harness side)
this picture is from the ECU to the shock tower, notice the colors are different.
you need to get a map sensor with the wires and wire them to the following.
the yellow with red stripe from the map sensor connects to the green with yellow stripe at the shock tower
the green with white stripe from map sensor connects to green with blue stripe at shock tower
and the white wire from map sensor connects to the pink with white stripe at the shock tower

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
check for a green/blue green/yellow and pink /white wires at the passenger shock tower. like in my pictures, if thats the case then the eg6 had a TB mounted map sensor
there are two pictures, i edited the post to show the second one correctly

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
i hope the wires are the same color on the eg6 clip as they are on the usdm clip.
i hope those pictures help
i hope those pictures help

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
so the eg ive been working on doesnt have a map sensor, i picked one up from a junkyard and the wires that go to the plug for the map are the same colors as the the ones that the diagram posted up on here says to wire them to, should they be different colors or should i wire them right to the same color wires?

Wire it up properly. Run the MAP wiring to the PS show tower clips, use pins from a donor clip to run it through the clips and reloom the harness. Thats just IMO because I'm OCD about wiring.

Re: jdm engine bay haness has no MAP plug what to do
well obviously wire it up right but should the wires just be like 3 loose wires or do i need to cut them off of another clip, and my question wasnt really answered since my map sensor side wires are the 3 colors that the diagram up top says to wire them to do i just snip those wires and wire it in??

Its good to have the same colors as the scematic; makes it easier for possible electrical troubleshooting; but isn't required especially if you are a wiring guru.
