i have a 92 civic cx with a 94 gsr swap with uberdata, i had the same swap in another hatch but ended up sellin the car and keepin the swap to put in my new 92 hatch
i rebuilt the motor and it took bout a month and a half, now that its in i try to start the car and it just floods out the motor and throughs a solid check engine light. i tried a new ecu a stock p28 which runs perfectly in other cars but in mine it still throughs a solid check engine light.
any help would be much appreciated

get the code read and look in the "ecu codes FAQ" at the top of this forum

without that we have NO CLUE AT ALL

i did its solid doesnt blink just solid

batch

so ive read that a solid is a zero and means bad ecu but if i have tried 3 different ecus now which i know 2 at least are good wat does this mean and how do i fix it

ChicagoMike

Did you actually jump the ECU to try to pull the code? Or did ya just start swapping out ECU's??

batch

i jumped it i have a switch wired to the plug switch on or off just solid and i cut the switch out thinkin maybe that could be the problem and just straight connected the wires but still no luck just solid light

If you have actually done everything correctly, and getting a solid CEL with 3 working ecu's, you might have a bad harness.

wat would be bad in the harness and wat would i check

batch

the car ran perfectly when i was just a cx passed emissions and everything then i pulled the cx motor and let it sit for bout a month and half then put the gsr in

It's solid because there is a problem. You have to do the neat-o trick with the paper clip to get it to flash. Do some research.

lol hahaha he said he knows how to get it to flash.. sometimes it just doesn't...

i had two codes b4... i just left the paper clip in there... when i installed my blue box it went away and left a solid light... my friend said my lil paper clip fell off... i told him it didn't... when my car had another problem there she was.. that blinking light...

my bad didnt mean to start anything just really frustrated with this whole project this is my daily driver so i need to get it to run quickly

92ehatch

wait wait, you left your paper clip in, so you LEFT it jumped off.

you arent supposed to do that. you only jump it to get the codes then remove the jumper (in this case the paper clip)

im not sure if that would cause any issues, but ive been told do NOT start the car with it jumped. just an fyi

i don't really know, a friend of mine who has been through turbo told me to leave it in... i thought it ran better... atleast till i get the problems fixed. i drove it like that for probably 4 weeks. idunno...
