i have a 93 honda civic ex with a 1.6 SOHC v-tec. i want to do the timing on it. it says i have to connect a paperclip to the SCS connector. Is this connector under the dash or under the hood? is this the same connector you can read read diagnostic codes from?

poorhonda

anyone ?

that connector is up under the dash on the passenger side by the ecu.. it is used for cel's but i dont think you need that to do your timing.

poorhonda

i was looking in the book and it said put a ppaper clip into the scs befor using the tinning gun

poorhonda
