Default Stupid D16 Wiring Question..Please help!

Hi All,

This isn't exactly a hybrid, I know, but please bare with me.

I am putting a D16 from a 1988 CRX Si into a 1991 CRX Si Shell. I blindly assumed the wiring would be the same, but the plugs which I'm assuming are for the injectors, don't match up (Drivers side shock tower plugs). Also, on the chassis there are 2 plugs, (6 wires and 2 wires) and on the motor there is one plug with 8 wires..Or maybe it's the other way around, I'm too exhausted to remember.

I was hoping it would be as easy as just repinning a plug, but the 8 wires don't match up in color. 6 of them do, but the remaining 2 don't match. Please Help! If this isn't specific enough, I can post tomorrow with pictures and colors for the wires.

Thanks in Advance,

~James

i think the 88-89 Si harness is different from the 90-91 harness. So if you have the 90-91 use it. you could repin it, i really hate repining harnesses.

I KNOW that the harnesses are different, that's why I'm posting

The question was how do I repin them together, all the colors don't match!

best place would be the EF forum. I'm sure someone there will link you to the right web page.
