Default Question for all you 88-91 CRX to OBD-I guys

I am about to do this swap in my CRX and was wondering if any one has found or know a way to wire up the CEL light i know that in the crx the ecu would blink and in the EG the CEL on the dash will iluminate and then you have to short the small plug under the right dash to get the code.

Thanks in advance

Use a OBD-0 to OBD-1 conversion harness. It has the jumper in place so when you jump it, your check engine light on the cluster will give you the codes.

There's a wire on the conversion harness that must be grouned and then the cel in your cluster will blink. I ran that wire to a normally open rocker switch located in the coin tray. If i get a cel i flip the switch and count the flashes. I'll get the pin number for you later.
