DUDE it says it right there at the bottom! Get an old plug from a junkyard or someone here, simply extend the wire, and plug it in according to his diagram......
I'm about to give up on you....

Re: Ok i searched this: wiring vtec (99hatch)
There should be one wire coming out of the solienoid, and then for the sensors you get a plug that has the wires and you tap into those.
What dont you get, where they go?

Re: Ok i searched this: wiring vtec (99hatch)
Ok so tap into those wires and run them straight to your ecu.
If those are the first plugs to the sensors and solenoid then you cant take them off, you have to tap off them.
If thats not what your talking about then you need to show pics.

Re: Ok i searched this: wiring vtec (99hatch)
Incase if you didnt get my PM, you need those plugs, they have power and ground in them.
If you really want to take them off and have it run 2 wires i suppose you could get some female connectors and plug them in and then run the wires to the computer. If you heat shrink them they might look ok, but they wont look anywhere close to the plugs though.

Re: Ok i searched this: wiring vtec (99hatch)
If you dont care how it looks why do it?
Pick up a couple of those, but only use the females, find the hot wire and the ground wire and wire it up correctly. If you **** up bye bye motor with no oil pressure to it.

Re: Ok i searched this: wiring vtec (99hatch)
it'll cost you TOPS $5 at a salvage yard for the correct plug
it'll cost WAY more than that if you don't use it and **** up... stop being hard headed...

No one likes ghetto-rigs. Either do it right or don't do it at all. For the most part, most ghetto-rigs look like **** AND **** up sooner or later. IMO, why the **** wouldn't you want to take another day and get the plugs? Guaranteed to fit and not **** up.

Exactly, when you call junkyards all they look at is a computer that has the whole harness not individuals. Go there stick in pocket and go, or if you feel right to pay for it go over and pay the .30 for it.
