ok guys i have a ek hatch with a b18c in it. as of right now i do not have vtec due to the fact that it is not wired up and can not figure it out.

would anyone be able to guide me or tell me how i can run wires from the vtec solenoid to the ecu and if i have to ground it out and all that stuff.as of right now i am not running vtec

pictures or diagrams would be awesome.

I am running a p72

thankyou

I have my wires run straight from the solenoid and pressure switch to my ecu, and I used this diagram. If you run the wires to the ecu and it doesnt work, simply reverse the position you have them in, it will only work one of 2 ways so you have a 50% chance of getting it right the first time. It will be easier to keep your wires in order if you use different colors. Good luck.

so i will be running 5 wires to the ecu?

or im sorry i will be jumping or joining a4 and d6 as one and then those two wires are done which are shown in the diagram. and then i will run 3 wires from the solenoid to d3,a17,and a20

I dont have knock, iab, or evap purge hooked up. I only have two wires running from my motor, through the firewall, straight to my ecu. I would start out with about 3ft of wire and trim down once you figure out how your ecu will sit so that the wires aren't stretched.

You'll only run the two yellow wires (for sensors associated with VTEC )and two red (for pressure switch and VTEC solenoid, I'm pretty sure. Depending on your ECU, you can prolly trim that to only the two red I've mentioned like 300wh above me. Boom.

you certainly are special

^ Haha, I edited it and hoped no one would notice, definite special there. I quickly glanced at the key and tried to differentiate the guide through that. Bad idea haha. I think I cleaned myself up though, were good. I had my special moment for the day.

OP, may i suggest you creep around this link for any info in addition to what you might find here - http://technet.ff-squad.com/

Oh alright that is easy enough. Thanks guys and appreciate all the help

When it comes
To wiring yes I am special haha

Ha, I'm good at general wiring. Pin swapping and ecu wiring is where I get confused, as seen above.
