Default Defeating VTEC oil pressure switch

Ok, guys, there's the deal.

I have a 95 Accord Euro R Hybrid.

I'm just undoing a few of the left over bugs, the car still hauls ***** but I'm still lacking VTEC becuase the Euro R doesn't come with a VTEC oil pressure switch, and it's throwing a code on my Hondata. What exactly does the ECU look for when it tries to use this switch and how to you bypass it to make VTEC function properly?

simply splice the oil pressure wire into the vtec solenoid wire. no problem or CEL then.

VTM to VTS.

Hey, wait a sec, I get the general concept. Can you elaborate? VTM to VTS? Hook me up with a little more info, please. I've got two wires in the vtec oil pressure switch, bwn/blk, blu/blk. which one splices?

Hey, thanks, bro, that was a cheap and effective fix... I just jumped D6 to A4 and it fired right up. No my car is scary fast.
