Okay Im trouble shooting my code 22 today.

So far, everything is connected to the ECU correctly and grounded right. What else could it be?

 

Do you have a FSM? If you do look at page 6-77, or get a PDF version. It has a very good walk through for that problem

 

Thanks, I need a multi meter to test the oil pressure switch?

 

a new thread for every problem that you're already discussing in your aftermath thread is tarded

you need a meter to test anything electrical. if you are going to be checking for grounds and continuity only, a test light would probably get you by. but a multimeter is much better

and x2 on what the guy above me said, that page in the FSM has an exact, step by step walkthrough to diagnose that CEL.

 

Yeah thanks. I got the PDF on my computer. Yeah 2 threads is traded. This thread is a whole lot easier for a straight awnser. Thank you.

 

U sure ur not just low on oil. Or could be ur oil pressure switch is clogged, take it off and see maybe.

 

I already have, taken it off cleaned it, reinstalled it. Later that night after I did so, I started thowing my code 22. Before that I had no Vtec either. Im hoping its a faulty switch, I read through what it could be in my manual, and its a whole lot of equipment Ill need to get to run all tests. I hope its easy.

So VTEC is working now?

 

No. im hitting Pepboys up for a multimeter after work today.

 

what does FSM mean?

 

Here ya go. hopefully this will save you from lots of headache.

Dude you just made my day. All I have to do is Cross the Vtec Oil pressure wire into the Vtec solniod wire and its good to go?

Damn that will be a cake walk.

Looks like Ill be Vtecing tmmorrow.

4.5 quarts of Honda 5w-30w every oil change.

Cheers Jason Thanks

 

Yep no problem. Just glad I could help.

 

It didnt work. I reset the ecu, spliced the wires together and wahlah! Code 22 still there. Any insight as to what the problem is?

 

Well that blows. I pulled out my ecu and rechecked everything. Okay so, the Vtec wire may have been slightly out of the wiring harness for the ECU. I readjusted everything and turned the car on.

No CEL light. Whoa who!!!

But no Vtec either. I let the car warm up to operating temp, and no vtec. I hit the gas and let it stay at 6k rpm for a good ten seconds. Nothing.

I checked the oil. Its golden brown. Ahh thats so nice. But there is no vtec

I figured Id check to see if theres any cels, just for the hell of it. And guess what I find.

No code 12, 22, 1, or 10.

But a solid cel light. Boo Hoo. This blows monkey *****. Now how am I supposed to trouble shoot this. I think Im gonna start a new thread entitled Solid cel. Only because it will get more attention right away as opposed to my on going novel called the Aftermath.
