Default vtec pressure switch code 22 bad ground?

ok i hav a 97 civic dx w/a b16a2 swap and iam running a 97 0bd2 p72.

i am throwin a cel code 22.
ive changed my oil three times in three months of having the swap. i tried three different pressure switches,i cleaned out the vtec solenoid, and ive tried three different ecu's a p28, a chipped p28, and my p72. and w/the p72 i am cutting off at 6700 no vtec and with the p28 i am redlining at 8000 no vtec.
so today i am trying to explain my problem to anybody that knows anything about hondas. and i might have stumbled across the solution to my prob. maybe just maybe it could be the ground wire!!!
i look at the wire that connects to the pressure switch (blue/black) and there both securely connected but with further inspection of the wire i notice the black wire is cut in half. in other words the end coming from the ecu is not touching the end connected to the pressure switch.
so..honda-techers wat do i do, just connect the two ends. or connect the two ends and connect another piece to that and ground it to the battery. and will this finally solve my problem.

vtec switch have 2 wires. one go from ecu to the switch and the other is wire is to ground near the thermostat.
